There seems to be no way to know the extent to which human activity is increasing natural warming. Everyone qualified to opine on the subject (i.e., argue that the impact is significant or that it is not) can be argued to have a financial incentive to do so. So we can disregard recourse to the...

They are just box tickers. They are not resourced or smart enough or interested in doing the kind of checking you are imagining. That's why they don't even worry about the likelihood that the income is taxed and, therefore, not necessarily even available to you. Whatever low level of...

Trucho said it would sail through. Other people have had different experiences. My near three-year odyssey (admittedly complicated by the pandemic) with a real estate-based, lawyer-supported and perfectly documented Rentista application has been reported several times on this board.

Is that you Insaurralde?

I agree. Although perhaps they ought to be interested in whether or not the income you demonstrate is liable to (and will be reduced by) tax in another country, they don’t seem to notice, care, or ask. Separately, we seem to have fallen into the habit on this board of saying that the income...

Good link. Thanks. Interesting reviews. I bought 12-months coverage when leaving from Aeroparque in December, obtaining a discount for being a member of Medicus and choosing the level of coverage and premium I could live with/risk. It sure would be good to know if it actually works when needed.

I think better advice than to forget grammar is to know that there are two grammars: that of the spoken language and that of the written language. We can get away with things in the former that we can’t in the latter. We need things in the latter that we don’t need in the former. Be clear about...

I know. There is nothing wrong with the question. It's the answers that are about to come flooding your way that worry me.

Oh no. Brace for impact everyone...

That's usually how it's done. Sans bodyguards. Barcelona and Battersea it ain't.

It's partly cultural, I think. The cuisine is pretty ordinary here, in general. Home cooking isn't widely practised, certainly in Barrio Norte. The craze in many wealthier countries to install a fabulous kitchen and fill it with appliances (but never actually cook) has never caught on here (and...

To quote the great Basil Fawtly: "May I ask what you were expecting to see in a database of photos of Buenos Aires apartment kitchens? Sydney Opera House perhaps? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically..." Barcelona it ain't.

When you say "move to Buenos Aires", do you mean come here permanently or just for a few months?

It looks like you're here because you have an Argentine girlfriend. If you intend to stay long term, sign long term rental contracts, obtain health insurance, and do most of the normal things, you need to obtain either temporary (and then permanent) residency or citizenship. Marrying your...

It's not entirely clear what you are trying to do. The Commonwealth Bank sends codes to its App, which you can receive here when connected to Wifi and thus complete a transaction you are undertaking on internet banking in the event it is one of those that need a code. (I have an account with...

Is that same state broadcaster taking on the current government over the war in Ukraine, about which there are competing views about whether it should continue or instead be brought to a close?

It's hard to think of a reason why they would accept two people whose income was less than 2 X the minimum amount. But the income requirement for the pensionista is new, so if you try for it, or get professional advice, please let us know how Migraciones are interpreting their own rules on the...

I wasn't the only one reimagining the past. Red, who often tells us he only arrived here in 2014, was nostalgically recalling the days when Macri as Jefe de Gobierno (2007-2015) was throwing all those construction jobs to his buddy Nicky Caputo's companies. Since we're still kicking the...

It's true. And did you also know that Larreta's father conspired with Osama Bin Laden to plan 9/11 and that Larreta and Maria Eugenia later led a special operation to destroy the evidence?

If you've been reading other threads on this forum, you will have seen almost universal agreement that to obtain temporary residency as a Rentista you need a lawyer. It is a complicated and drawn out category to apply under. Only a lawyer can answer these questions and, even then, he or she will...
