    Western Union money transfer

    $5000 with a credit card comes to $137. If you have a 2% rewards card it is really $37.

    Western Union money transfer

    Family support is a gift. It isn't income. I don't believe gift taxes exist in Argentina. Just the wealth tax. If your grandma wants to send you $10k a month and you spend it like Brewster's Millions what would AFIP care.

    What should I expect in terms of taxes?

    I didn't either. Unless this is brand new. How does it work for a stay at home spouse or student marrying a citizen? It goes deeper than just the mentality for paying taxes or doing the right thing. The IRS and AFIP system and laws clash on so many levels. Find your personal comfort level...
