    Is Western Union asking non-residents for a CDI now?

    why not comply with the host countries request that you amend your visa to reflect your status.....no need to ''game'' a receptive host.....legal compliance is encouraged and affordable......the pandemic has created some wrinkles, but again, as long as you are attempting to comply, they will not...

    Looking to invest $1 million USD in Argentina - what should I buy?

    I would take some exception to your comment regarding ''quality of service''.....professionalism is taught and monitored....it does not exist without training and oversight.....in most large corporations doing business in Argentina, it is not even a concern.....if no one at the top cares, then...

    Why do you choose Argentina?

    It's interesting.....wages have been stagnant in the US for decades and discretionary income has declined considerably.....however.....when the cost of items do rise , as they constantly do, it's promoted as indicative of a strong business environment......inflation, nope, nothing to see here...

    Reduced flight schedules and current entry / exit requirements

    Sorry to say but it's not unique to Argentina ...... that delusional denial exists even more so in the states, primarily the red ones like texas and florida.......ps......it has been heavily covered by the media, such as when Miami was recently shut down.

    Reduced flight schedules and current entry / exit requirements

    regarding the 2 hour PCR results...... maybe in CABA, but certainly not in Texas.....I could get the antigen test back in a time frame of a couple hours to 2 days, depending on where I went.......at $250+ (US) ...the best I could get on PCR was ''possibly" in 2 days, but more than likely 3 days...

    Reduced flight schedules and current entry / exit requirements

    OK......besides being incredibly selfish.....what if your own immune system isn't up to the task ?.....p.s......it's referred to as social responsibility, and it is respected in civilized cultures.

    Covid test without DNI?

    on numerous occasions I have entered my passport number and it was accepted.... the DNI is 8 digits, and my passport is 9 digits.....it simply neglected the last digit and seems to work.....once I've cleared that hurdle, I can address the issue....good luck.

    borders closed with judicial endorsement

    Your scenario represents the problem with hypothetical situations.....you can make anything up and present it as a legitimate possibility.....if you had documented proof of such an infraction, it would bear consideration....hypothetical mental meandering cannot ever be considered in real life...

    Calls Buenos Aires - US

    Google Voice is excellent, but you must load it before you leave the US, and link it with a US number.....I have used it for several years....having loaded the app while in the US, it treats me as though I am constantly in the US.....advantage......you can call land lines and mobile #'s......all...

    Dollar Value Predictions 2021/2022

    the dollar will ''weaken'' ( not become weak, but weaken ) in the foreseeable future as a result of the US printing new money to combat the effects of covid-19 on the economy and citizens of the US ( I'm including citizens as a result of the change of administrations ) ....... some of the peaks...

    Cost of a ticket for international flights goes up due to a tariff increase...

    I see your point, but I think there may be more to it....to begin with, my observation was not meant as a ''quid pro quo'' but simply pointing out that fees, taxes and levy's are everywhere....it's not a matter of Argentine abuse....as with everything, you have to consider the timing.....I can't...

    Cost of a ticket for international flights goes up due to a tariff increase...

    if you're going to whine and complain, understand the protocols beyond your myopic view.....no one has mentioned the heavy cost of a US visa vs. the ''welcome for free'' Argentine tourist visa....the cost for US visas are expensive, and a large portion must be paid at the initial application...
