You're all still Argentines. You can't renounce.

I don't watch much TV (we don't have cable...just internet). In case you missed this Argentine film in theaters... Relatos Salvajes (aka Wild Tales) is on Netflix Canada. This is the only market where available. Here's a great site to find what's available to stream. https://flixsearch.io/...

Lock in your RIa or Xoom today if want to catch a rate over 15. You can always cancel if the blue recovers.

PSA: Just to reiterate... Don't forget to pick up your booze by Saturday! If you're new here...no alcohol sales on Sunday due to the election.

It should be at official rate in ARS. (You're eligible for citizenship with your current status...cheaper than visas if you submit the papers yourself. Takes longer but not much harder than a visa) ;)

+1 to Camel. I use that as well.

I agree with Ries. CamScanner is a great app though. You can save in PDF or JPG and it formats really well. I have been using for years. Particularly when I don't have the ganas to use my flatbed scanner.

I came here to post the very same thing. :) I have never seen Xoom's rate so close to the blue except when the blue is plunging (since Xoom lags). Did you get the email from them as well?

We sent an envelope labeled "documents/documentos" from MN two weeks ago. It was USD85 from a FedEx store. Arrived to our door in 4 days in Córdoba (strangely the "saver" rate was over USD100). Just don't put anything but documents in it as you risk it getting stuck in customs.

I ended up using a combi (van) from Pilar for ARS70 per person. It got me within a few blocks of the embassy (Av Corrientes y Leandro N Alem is the last stop for Expreso Pilar). I did pick up a SUBE card for the return on the 57 to Pilar. It was fast and efficient. I do recommend buying as...

Update: I was at the BROU on Friday. In an hour, I withdrew USD, changed both the IDs associated with the account (they still had our expired UY cedulas and it had to be updated regardless); even though my wife was not with me, I had her documents and they updated hers as well. I closed my...

Thanks for the great write up. Córdoba has it's own system. We can use one card for other people. Is SUBE the same? Example: I will travel with my wife and two kids. 7 and 3. I assume the 3 year old is free...can I use the same card for my wife and other child? I didn't see this on the FAQs.

Ria was lower by a peso for a week with Xoom. I found that out last week and had to make other arrangements.

Thanks. I've used moovit Cordoba, but not cooperating even if I try to populate it myself. Will try again when we get there. I did find this. Looks like it could be 45 minutes if the diferencial. http://baexpats.org/topic/25646-pilar-express-bus/

Anyone know route 57? It picks up in Pilar and drops at Plaza Italia in Palermo. I'm buying a SUBE card tomorrow. OmniLíneas doesn't have a duration of the route and it's not in Google Maps. There must be a better site. Thoughts?

I agree. They should comply with US law, but if you're a citizen of the country you are residing in... You deny banking services to all US dual nationals (who aren't worth the trouble)? As a practical matter, I did not see any indication that Argentine banks entered my information as anything...

I haven't looked into it yet....as it's a bridge I have not yet crossed. I switched my nationality at my Argie banks to Argentine. That clearly doesn't provide me any cover when it comes to being FBAR'd. Does that help in opening/maintaining an account? I have heard anecdotes from Europe that...

Yes, yes it is BROU.

Not yet. One account in Uruguay (since 2010) and two in Argentina (since 2013).

Thanks. I'm just getting some money from my existing account so that's encouraging. I would like to update some account features and get a replacement ATM card as well...if there's time. I bringing all of my original docs from when I opened the account in 2010, just in case.
