    Hello and a cash question

    It’s per person? I always thought it was per family.

    Hello and a cash question

    I think you should stop the over-research you are doing; you’re making yourself crazy for nothing

    Hello and a cash question

    a. Vendors don’t take US dollars. And the only US dollars which have value here are $100 bills; quite impractical for everyday purchases. You need to change them for peso and use peso. b. You can use your foreign credit card, the rate is only a couple percentage points less than you’d get for...

    DNI - which country for background check?

    I'm a dual Australian-US citizen, born in Australia. I want to get a DNI here and am going to file with my Australian papers because I can get them apostilled at the Australian embassy and avoid the crazy US apostille process. The only problem is the background check. I lived in the USA before...

    How an Argentine Can Get a Bank Account in the USA

    Does this mean that if I get a DNI (as a US citizen) I’ll now be on the AFIP radar as they’ll get my tax returns and bank info?

    Foreign Exchange Rates on Credit Cards

    I love how everytime someone asks for info on the more advanced ways to transfer money, the responses turn into "DM me and I'll arrange it for you"; suddenly everyone is Argentinean, trying to make 3 peso off somebody else's transfer. LOL. For crypto: it's pretty simple. Some cuevas accept a...

    Are rents about to skyrocket?

    I don’t think it really matters. If it gets too expensive, re-negotiate the lease. It’s not like people are lining up to shell out $3000 for your house in Neuquen. The economy is in recession and that means fewer renters for nice homes.

    Overstay options

    You’re massively overthinking this. There’s a fine for overstaying but overstaying is not a crime here. It’s more similar to a parking ticket. Relax and enjoy Argentina and pay the $20 fine on your way out.

    Dollar blue reaches 1500

    Are they actually getting that cheap again or is this not literal? (Stopped eating out when prices went bonkers, so I'm out of the loop)

    Milei’s Independence Day military parade

    I’m not a Milei fan but the BA Times’ relentless anti-Milei compulsion is making it difficult to take it seriously as a news source. This article is a case in point: the parade was great, and the article is ostensibly about the parade, but 90% of the article is actually about (bashing) Milei...

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    No kidding. If you shut down half the government without caring about the impact on the people those departments serve, and fire tens of thousands of government workers without concern as to how they’ll feed their families - turns out you can save loads of cash. Milei is a genius!!!! Wake me...
