Sorry...should clarify. ATM-only. My wife is on the account. So we have one for each of us. No names on them...just numbers.

Opening a Banco Republica (BROU) account isn't a bad option if you really need to go the Colonia route. I have two debit cards and can get up to USD1200 per card per day (last time that I tried it...much more than other cards). I have a trusted friend who goes for business and picks up cash for...

Requested our new DNIs today are the Provincial Registro. Yea! It was a five minute process for each or us. They scanned our respective cartas and sentences. They wrote some numbers on the carta and returned everything (The juzgados said the Registro would keep the originals, but did not)...

Did my oath today about 10:15am. A different process than my wife's. I arrived at 8:40...was given my carta to run it down to the Federal Police for a thumbprint. (My wife did hers at the counter in the juzgado). Mine is type-wrtten where hers was hand-written. When I checked in--I was told...

I also was able to register my Argentine daughter's birth without issue in a single attempt. Both parents on an overstayed tourist visa. If you have a kid--migraciones is really simple. I went from no status to permanent in one 3 1/2 hour appointment at migraciones along with my wife, US-born...

This link has the form to register children "Por Opcion" and also shows the Carta de Ciudadania form. For our case of trying to register our daughter as Argentine--it does NOT say Argentino Nativo on the form...just Argentino which is nice, but it refers directly to the law which explicitly...

Received my call today. Oath ceremony June 2nd. Meet at juzgado at 9am. Oath at approx. noon as was the case with my wife. If we have the time and the ganas...we will be go to the registro with both cartas, my two girls (the Argentine and the one we hope to register with us) and high hopes but...

Yes. Minneapolis/St. Paul :)

Here's an example from Italy...I'm trying to find better source material. This is from an Italian dual national site. "While in Italy you must still represent yourself to Italian government authorities (including the police) as an Italian citizen. For example, "Io sono un cittadino italiano"...

The McKeegans from Greenback Expat Tax are great. They have lived abroad for more than a decade. They are highly educated and have a team of CPAs that handle these returns. We met them in Uruguay and again in Mendoza (They also lived in BA for a time). They're currently in Bali with their three...

USA ID is a thing. It's just not particularly legitimate and not backed by any govt authority. Where the passport card is (Here's a list of differences between the book and the card). Technically the card should not serve much use if you're not in a border area in the US. I can see how no one...

There was just another thread the other day that I started. It turned into a conversation about getting married twice... You might want to check that out. http://baexpats.org/...d-in-argentina/

I was ready to log on and say "no" out of hand. But you have a good plan in place. You would need your appointment in advance. My family was able to go from no legal status to permanent in a few days. We qualified as parents of an Argentine-born child. Our appt for the three of us was 3 1/2...

It's exclusively for ACA members and their dependents. Most likely scenario for BAExpat members here would be a reissue for a naturalized citizens (lost passport) but not their first time as those must occur at the Registro wiith the carta de ciudadanía. I didn't see any mention of the special...

I joined ACA last year. They administer my auto insurance. I have found their service excellent. There are always promos to join. My first year was almost free. I had looked into getting my license through them, but it's not a service they offer up here. I suspect that they might be a bit...

In Córdoba, I heard the same anecdotes about taking the US license away. They never asked to see mine. I went in to ask some questions so I could come back with the correct things. They told me I could take apply on the spot. so I did. I just had to do the written exam, have a brief...

As Bajo said. You're ok. No need to make a trip to US Embassy. SoS of MN just needs to know the document(s) is to be presented in Argentina. Sounds like you have it under control but if you have any MN specific questions--feel free to PM me. I'm from Twin Cities. I have needed docs for...

Haha. I don't think it counts as bigamy when it's the same person. ;) I did some quick Google searches on this subject where couples are married twice in two countries (It happens often...I have friends who have done it, but there might have been only one legal ceremony). It appears the...

Haha. I love it. We were considering this option. 14th anniversary this month. Maybe time to renew the vows as Argentines. ;) Then there's the Italian question. Do I have to report both my marriages to the same woman! :huh:

Anyone validate a marriage abroad with the registro in Argentina? I believe the term is "validar matrimonio en el extranjero." It appears that it's a judicial process (federal/provincial?) then a trip to the registro. Is it required? Is there any reason that it would be advisable to do so...
