    DNI Express, Passport Express

    When my husband tried to make an appointment online for a new passport in February, the only option we could find in our neighborhood was for an "express" turn. the appointment was the following week, and the passport arrived at our apartment in 2 days. I don't remember the cost, but it wasn't...

    Condo or Co-op?

    The answer to this may be somewhere on this site but I don’t know how to find it. So apologies if it is redundant. I “own” an apartment in Buenos Aires. What I am wondering is exactly what it is that I own. I am familiar with New York real estate where there are condos and co-ops. The...

    How to bring in USD Legally to buy property?

    When I bought my apartment in 2009, I used a company named Multifinanzas, which is now named Transatlantica Compañia Financiera. They are located downtown in microcenter. They were great. The price for the service was very reasonable, and we also did the closing in a room at their office. The...

    How to learn Spanish?

    Be direct, whenever you start a conversation with someone you don't know. The first words out of your mouth should be: "Disculpe, no hablo bien el castellano." This sets the bar low, before they have a chance to get frustrated with you. Once alerted to your difficulty, I have found...

    Anybody trying to fly out to get vaccinated and then return?

    Not if you have permanent residency. I don't know if you have temporary residency. I gather that you need need proof of connection/family only if you don't have residency.

    Anybody trying to fly out to get vaccinated and then return?

    I entered about 3 weeks ago as a permanent resident, with no problem. When I filled out the ddjj form, I initially used my U.S. passport number and got to a form requiring me to prove health insurance. When I went back and changed to entering with my DNI, things went perfectly, with no insurance...

    Best way to transfer USD/EUR for house/land purchase?

    I did it 12 years ago using a finance company called Multifinanzas. Things can have changed a lot, I don’t know anything about them since then, but at the time, the service was economical and great. I would suggest trying them, or someplace similar, maybe Casa Puente. I was a tourist and had no...

    Reduced flight schedules and current entry / exit requirements

    We came through Ezeiza from the US this morning and there was no mention of any quarantine. Three people in three different lines, two of them native Argentine speakers, agreed that not one the immigration agents said anything about health or safety. And there were no other controls except...

    CuidAR app help?

    Thanks for the responses. It's nice to know we aren't the only ones with this problem. I kind of thought it wouldn't matter to the Argentines. What I am worried about is that some Delta agent here will read in their computer that we need it and won't let us on the plane. But the instruction...

    CuidAR app help?

    We have tickets to arrive in Buenos Aires from the U.S. this Friday. My husband is a citizen and I am a permanent resident. We have our PCR tests underway, and I know about the DDJJ form. But on the Delta website I see that we must have the CuidAR app installed. We have, in fact, succeeded...

    How locked down is life there now?

    My husband and I have been in the US since February. But we are getting our covid vaccinations now and are thinking about returning to Argentina for a couple of months. We are wondering if it is worth it. Is life there still very locked down and limited? He is an Argentine citizen and I’m a...

    Dealing with noisy neighbours in BA

    Yes. I wondered about that at the time. My Argentinean husband says your presumption is correct, fear of reprisal. So I guess we were lucky. I thought it was because they didn't expect that we would succeed, so they didn't want to stick their necks out. Maybe they were right in thinking...

    Dealing with noisy neighbours in BA

    About 7 years ago, we had a problem with late-night noise from the apartment above us. We own our apartment, but the one above is a rental owned by the building. We went to mediation against the building, claiming that the tenants were breaking the rules of the building with noise and...
