I do want to pretty heavily disclaim that I don't yet know how it's going to go over with the people reviewing the actual visa application.... I think there's a very good chance they take one look and refuse to accept it, especially because it doesn't have my actual passport number on it. I'm...

Good afternoon, This is a follow-up of my previous post detailing my experiences marrying an Argentine national in 2025. I am now pursuing a temporary residency visa via family reunification. There has been little insight on this forum and elsewhere as to how irregular status [e.g. overstaying...

Thanks so much. I didn't realize that you were in Cba, so that changes things. Indeed the system in CABA seems to have moved entirely online, so it is no longer possible to just go to the police station. I think formally you're meant to hire a certified public translator to do the interpretation...

Good afternoon, Were you required to obtain a certificate of domicile/provide "proof of habitual residence within the jurisdiction of the Consulate (such as a utility bill or other document that serves as proof)" for the Rentista visa? I will be required to do this for the temporary visa for...

Good afternoon, all! I am a U.S. citizen who has been overstaying a tourist visa in Buenos Aires since October of 2024. I moved here to live with my partner [for context, we are both men], and we recently decided to get married so that I can pursue regular status through the family...

Ah, I think that might be why I haven’t seen it. My partner is an Argentine citizen, so I think the requirements might be different? I haven’t gotten married yet, we have our appointment for December 1st. I don’t have my birth certificate so I’ll be hoping for the best. If you have your date...

Hey, unfortunately I haven’t gotten an answer yet. My partner and I are just going to hope for the best; I’m lucky in that my circumstances don’t really require me to have a permanent residence visa if for some reason I’m ineligible due to irregular status. I do have one question for you though...

Thanks, I paid for my background check to be processed through Monument Visa and have an appointment this week with the Registro Nacional de Reincidencia for my fingerprints. I didn't even think about how the shutdown will effect the background check/apostille processing though... ugh!!! I will...

Yeah, that would be expected but that seems distinct from what I was being told from the [alleged] immigration lawyer. It seems like many people here have been married while on irregular status/overstaying a tourist visa and have never had issues, and I don't see it listed as a requirement on...

Hello Shpongle, Did you have any issues getting married while overstaying/on irregular status? I just spoke to a lawyer [unsure of their credentials] who told me that marriages done where one party has irregular status are technically invalid and can be nullified by the courts. I don’t know how...

As someone who is about to begin this process, this is really helpful information!! I have one question about the visa precaria if you happen to know -- I was told on the phone with a lawyer that you have to be in regular immigration standing [e.g. not overstaying a tourist visa] in order to...

Hello everyone, I am currently working on obtaining my permanent residency via marriage in CABA with my Argentine partner. I have been living here for 1 year on an expired tourist visa, and would like to avoid leaving the country until I have obtained legal residence, as I would not like to...
