Confirming Address should be simply but not in Honduras

After 1 year we have finally been advised that the Mexico immigration office are requesting my husband's passport but they have also asked for some proof of his address.

My husband does not live in a developed country he lives in Honduras. They are not required to list their address on their drivers license or even on their government ID. Electricity bills are hand delivered from the electrical company and are often in the name of the owner (when you rent) or a previous owner if you own a house. I am not even sure that there is organized mail service in Honduras that delivers mail.

Any suggestions foot what we could possibly provide that would show proof of my husband's address? We have asked the Mexico office twice but they will not respond and we only have 2 more weeks to reply. They have stated that if we can not confirm address the application will be declined.

Anyone with any ideas would be helping me out in a huge way.

Thanks. VG

Is there a family or household registry in Honduras?

Thanks for your reply.

How could that help?

A household registry and possibly a family card/registry should include an address.
 
What does the electric bill have on it? If there is an address, that is the address of the house, presumably. If it is not the right name, can he get the landlord to write a letter stating he owns the house and your husband lives there? Or if your husband owns the house, does he have a deed with the address or a description? Or is there a land registry where the house would be listed with the owner?
If the city or town he lives in does not have names for the streets on street signs, such places sometimes do have street names, they are just not widely known. The land registry or housing registry, if there is one, might then have the official address. The post office might have an official address as well.
Could he get the priest in the local church to write a letter stating where your husband lives?
He can always write a letter explaining the situation and giving a description of his house. In the instructions for one of the forms, it does say to list addresses, but that if the house does not have an address (for example, a farmhouse might not), to include a description of the house. He might have to do that here. I would include a letter or two from people in the town who can attest that he lives there.
What is the name of the town he lives in?
 
Bank account? Any mail from you? Letter from employer?
 
We have the same issue in the country we live in, no addresses exist, everything goes to a PO box, bills are in the landlord's name etc. We got a letter notarized here stating the address we live at and how long it's been our residential address - it was more of a description of the property and included the landlord's name.

Honduras does have mail delivery. I lived there for eight years. It’s not always accurate or timely. My advice if you need to quickly is to courier something to the post office to be held there for pick up. Or just go in. They have boards in the post office with mail waiting to be picked up. Twice I went in and there was mail waiting. Only has to be a birthday card or something simple
