Citygirl has the obvious solution to this one.

@Chet I think the difference is between staying over a few times and then having years worth of stamps in your passport showing that you are really "living" in Argentina. (Personally, I think all borders should be open to people to cross as they wish).

You making good money!

Sorry to hear about this @Canick Never nice to go through something like that.

There are various programs, the largest is "asignación universal por hijo" where you get a payment per child and in return the child must go to school, see a doctor, etc. This is not just for poor people, many workers also qualify if they earn under 8000 pesos per month (I think, the amounts...

Wanda Nara is destroying her kids lives, making them call her new husband "dad" and preventing them from seeing their real dad. Disgraceful.

Personally, I would move. If there are many problems in the beginning, and the landlord doesn´t want to get a heater, I don´t think the situation is going to get better. If you really want to stay, your husband who is Argentine should call him up and say that you need to have a discount while...

I had acne problems and they went away around when I was reaching my 30s, as my hormones died off. But a lot of people say that fat in the diet makes it worse (more toxins for your skin to process, and the skin, like kidneys, process toxins). Couldn´t hurt to cut back and see if it works.

Thanks Philip! that does make sense, I was completely off on the math. Unfortunately, it looks like our trip has been cancelled. :(

I suggest coming here for a few weeks to check it out. 1) if you have a pension, you can get a pensionists residency (see other threads) so no need for trip to Uruguay. 2) very complicated to import stuff and expensive, I think there is an exception if you are relocating, BUT if it is stuff you...

Yes Kate, please tell. I am a filmmaker and always looking for good new material.

Doctorate student doing research on tango and doesn´t speak Spanish? It is such a shame that the US educational system doesn´t get people fluent in foreign languages. (I myself didn´t learn Spanish until after I graduated, even though I took 10 years of classes).

If the big thing is your own furniture it might be easier to negotiate to repaint and take out some objects then get a rental contract without garantia.

Each bank is different. I think Citibank (for arg accounts) is unlimited, at least if you are a gold member. Our bank is 3000 pesos per day, and others are 1000 per day or per transaction. Sometimes the transaction is rejected because you can´t take out the amount, and if your Spanish is limited...

I will leave out the argument of if she should use atm cards. 1) check that the network of the ATM, is it compatible with her card? (link, banelco are the two common ones here, and they say if they are compatible with certain companies or not. 2) the pin needs to be 4 digits long 3) she should...

if you are just sending documents DHL, UPS or FED EX will get them here with no problems. Just don´t send any candy, make-up, clothing, photos ANYTHING THAT IS NOT DOCUMENTS with them.

Wow! when I rented I never had to pay that. Then my calculation is off, ABL can be a lot in certain neighborhoods.

With a long term rental you not only pay the rent, but expenses (which can be between $400-1000 pesos), gas, water, electricity, phone, internet, cable. So you have at least 800-1600 pesos right there (you do not pay ABL or expensas extraordinarias, which are for big projects, like painting the...

This is one of those questions that a lawyer could answer very quick. Not sure if it would have to be in la Plata, or in Merlo, or even what type of judge you need.

Thanks Matias, we know that, my question is does it make more sense to exchange pesos ar for pesos ur in Argentina or in Uruguay, being that we are authorized by the afip to buy them.
