We explore the phenomenological implications on nonminimal flavor violating (NMFV) processes from squark flavor mixing within the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). We work under the model-independent hypothesis of general flavor mixing in the squark sector, being parametrized by a complete set of dimensionless ${\delta }_{ij}^{AB}$ ($A,B=L,R$; $i,j=u,c,t$ or $d,s,b$; $i\ne j$) parameters. The present upper bounds on the most relevant NMFV processes, together with the requirement of compatibility in the choice of the MSSM parameters with the recent LHC and $(g-2{)}_{\mu }$ data, lead to updated constraints on all squark flavor mixing parameters.
