    For those who consider moving to Uruguay

    I lived in Uruguay for a year.... I do not recommend it to anyone!

    Choice of a migration/citizenship lawyer

    To add to this, Christian Rubilar may actually be the worst case for a citizenship lawyer. The judge has ultimate authority to decide your case. They are basically a dictator in their domain. As a result, not having a bad relationship with the judges is a good idea. Due to Rubilar's antics such...

    Choice of a migration/citizenship lawyer

    I would be wary of Christian Rubilar. What he tells people has all the hallmarks of a scam. He wins very few cases. And unlike what GMan_27 said he does not take the most difficult cases. His bread and butter cases nowadays are Russians with Argentine children. The idea that you can come to...

    Let the property buyer beware

    Like with anything those with problems will be more vocal. I have bought a property here in Argentina and know several others. There were no great surprises and things were smooth. It is true that the real purchase price is usually not what is recorded. That may or may not be to your benefit. As...

    Changes to naturalization law in pipeline?

    I am not sure where you are getting your information. I assume from Christian Rubilar who is a citizenshp lawyer trying to sell you a service. The reality is that very, very few people get citizenship without legal residency or having a baby in Argentina. Christian Rubilar has hundrerds...

    Bringing a bicycle to Argentina

    I brought a folding bike as checked-in luggage a few years ago. No one said anything. Then again I did not go through customs because they randomly wave some people through and I was waved through, so maybe I got lucky, but I don't think its an issue for a non-citizen.

    Quick Citizenship

    A tourist visa is NOT residency according to the courts when deciding citizenshp. You are unlikely to get citizenship and will end up like those cases that stay paralyzed for 10 years. Legal residency means you get a DNI and have the administrative permission / right to live here. That is a visa...

    Visa Rentista and the need for pesification

    I have rentista visa and I did peso-ify the income during the decision process and 3 months before. After I received the rentista visa I stopped doing it. So, that is one strategy. Talk to your immigration lawyer to see. If you simply want to live here and your business is not local, then you...

    Quick Citizenship

    Realistically you can get citizenship with 2-3 years of legal residency. If you do not get legal residency, then you you likely will never get it. Rubilar for example has many cases that have nearly a decade of no progress due to this missing fact of legal residency. So, if you want success it...

    Visa (Business?? Retirement??)

    I have the rentista visa and it works. As far as starting a business here it seems crazy. Better to try to work online than do a business locally. There will be no money in a local business for your time invested.

    Quick Citizenship

    No, that is not realistic. Some lawyers will mislead people into thinking they can do this so they can get money. Yes, a judge will let you start the process, but in 95% of cases you won't be given citizenship unless you have residency or you meet substantial set of facts (own house, argentina...

    Purchasing A House

    You can also pay by wiring to the sellers foreign account (usually USA account). That side steps bringing money to Argentina. Most sellers have foreign accounts and most prefer a wire transfer to that foreign account rather than keeping money that will be forever imprisoned in Argentina.

    Argentina Entry Covid Test Requirments

    Are airlines asking for an onward travel ticket for tickets or are tourists able to come with just a one-way ticket?

    Citizenship

    If you apply for a new case and get a new judge how come you need to continually keep recusing the prior judge over and over? Isn't one recusal sufficient?

    What if the first judge has issue with that?

    Western Union money transfer

    What is the process in receiving WU pesos in person? Can the "receiver" be someone not from Argentina? It looks like it asks for a DNI for the reeiver and an argentina nationality, etc, which is not something most foreigners will have.
