    Looking For A Migration Lawyer! Need Help To Get A Residency

    True. This is most definitely true. It's just much easier if one gets a residency DNI first. Particularly, if one represents oneself. If using an attorney...they'll clear the roadblocks that the court, prosecutor or clerk tries to throw at him.

    Argentinian Citizenship

    They are bound by the Mercosur agreement. As a practical matter, if the DNI has no indication as to when one solicited the 'opcion' I don't see how the other government would be any the wiser. Naturalized citizens' dates of naturalization are reflected on the DNI. Indirectly, one's status is...

    You order them together and you receive them together (if you have time to wait) but the CRBA will be slower. The DHL is about USD10-12 at blue for domestic Argentina. Under ARS200. You must pay for the waybill in advance and bring to your appointment.
