I've no idea. Everything else is very expensive too. We went to Geant supermarket to see what locals paid for ordinary groceries and the prices were through the roof.

Uruguay somehow manages to have USA-level restaurant prices without USA-level wages.

You probably mean you are not sure if by wiring money to a bank account you might alert AFIP to a tax liability for the recipient (or increase that person's tax liability). (If the account holder doesn't have a tax liability (i.e., is not a tax resident of Argentina) then it can't be a...

Guillermo Moreno has been running around for the last couple of weeks making this very point: no Libertarian has even been elected at municipal level anywhere in the world, yet in Argentina they managed to elect one president. His take on it is that Argentina is a special place that has done two...

The official devalued significantly at COB. Now at 390.

No sign of any change, yet... https://www.lanacion.com.ar/economia/bienes-personales-a-partir-de-que-patrimonio-debera-pagarse-el-impuesto-de-este-ano-y-que-exenciones-nid29112023/

As per the movie marathon: "Months might have turned into years. Still nothing..."

They are all over the place. First they make you demonstrate a pension that meets a minimum. That minimum can only be calculated at the official exchange rate at the time (not some arbitrary WU rate that they can't possibly know). Then they say you must bring that pension in, but you can do so...

Of course he doesnt. That was one of the reasons his internship at the Central Bank wasnt renewed. (Maybe he speaks Viennese or Austrian.)

I wonder if it might have been this one:

Correction: You are not at a pre-Precaria stage. You have your Precaria. Of course. And with that you can, in fact, open a bank account, as they are asking you to. (Finding a bank official who knows his or her own regulations well enough to take your Precaria as the basis for opening an account...

You're absolutely right. There is no other conceivable way to look at it.

You have reached the point that many of us have reached before you. You read the requirements, you gathered the documents, you did everything by the book, and, to your surprise, the application was accepted at the first checkpoint without a hitch. A promising start. But then, nothing... You may...

Nothing unusual has happened. These images show internal steps (and internal language) on their system. The back end, if you like. The front end for you is the Precaria: that document you have that you can print off and wave around (and would use if you were to try to open a bank account). It is...

Totally consistent with the experience. They get confused about their own rules. One official reads the new disposición as meaning Pensionistas do need to bring the money in, another reads it differently (and probably correctly). A good lawyer will help clarify matters and argue for the correct...

They haven't cancelled your precaria. You still have it. An intimacion is just a request for more information, more documents as part of the process of assessing your application during the precaria stage. You need to renew the precaria before 10 January in the usual way. If you want to...

It's true. And Massa's subsequent tantrum of saying "It's all yours from tomorrow" and then taking his bat and ball and trying to go on leave for the last three weeks also speaks to his maturity.

They clearly aren't coping with the new rules. It is legally possible to open a bank account here with a Precaria (which is pre-DNI), but it is not easy to do so (it takes some explaining to banks that the law permits them to accept you whilst you are at Precaria status). Pre-precaria, which is...
