I guess my question is along the lines of whether this can be filed electronically. To answer the previous question, I don't hold more than 10K abroad, but Form 8938 is still required with my regular tax return?

I know, FATCA is evil and shouldn't exist, the usual, but I'm not planning to get rid of my US citizenship so I have to deal with this. Has anybody previously filed this? I used to do my tax filing in the US via TurboTax, and I know there are some free alternatives provided by the government if...

Update: It took 51 days, but I finally got the “permanent residency disposition or however you want to translate that” notice. I did not contact anybody from Migraciones in the last two months, so I assume this is just the current waiting period from the huge backlog they got. So if you’re...

That’s kind of my question. They gave me no timeframe for how long the residency will take, and from what I see in this forum it can take a few months. Do you happen to know if the CUIL reconciliation process is too time consuming? Just wondering if it might be better to be a bit more patient...

Update: I got my Visa Precaria now and I’m waiting for the next step. However, I’m curious about something. According to my Precaria I’m “permitted to take remunerated tasks”. Does this mean I’m authorised for legal employment now? I was under the impression that I had to wait to get a DNI and a...

I got my interview set now, but now I’m worried about the passport stuff. My (American) passport has all the identity stuff translated into Spanish (and French) already. Do they still want a translation and a certification of translation even if it’s already in Spanish? That seems a bit...

That seems to have done the trick. I paid in person at Banco Nación instead though, but they were quick to respond. I got my interview appointment with Migraciones already. Hope all goes through without issue. 👍

I managed to pay the the one for Migraciones on ProvinciaNet, but when I enter the barcode number for the RNR one I get a message saying “Empresa deshabilitada”. That’s the one that was supposedly expired two months ago, even though I have no idea how that happened considering I started the...

I just submitted my documentation through Radex a few days ago —got all my stuff translated and apostilled, good stuff. However, I received an email today from Migraciones with the following text: “ SR/SRA: REDACTED Por la modalidad de trámite seleccionada debe cancelar la boleta de...

Bumping, but does anyone know or recommend any online services to get the criminal background check expedited (inasmuch as they can be expedited post pandemic)? I finally got my fingerprints delivered to family in the US and we need to coordinate on how to get this part done asap.

I’m checking the Migraciones website regarding citizenship (https://www.argentina.gob.ar/obtener-la-ciudadania-argentina) and the only problem here is that they’re asking for a job contract or the like. I actually am between jobs at the moment, as the plan was to quit my crappy job in the US...

From what I understand I can’t apply for citizenship until I’ve been in this country for two years, right?

Thanks for the replies. We’re finally starting to get this process started and have some left over questions: Is there any place I can get my fingerprints specifically? The US Embassy website mentions the Centro Nacional de Reincidencia, which is a bit far away since I’m staying in Munro. Also...

Hi there! I am an American citizen just got married to an Argentine girl yesterday,and we’re about to go on our honeymoon to the Patagonia later this weekend. However, our plan is for me to stay in Argentina for the time being, so I’m looking at some of the stuff in the Migraciones website...
