We went ahead and bought our plane tickets for December 13th. Our appointment at the embassy was on Nov 16. That's 27 days between embassy appointment and plane travel. I'm hoping and calculating that that will be enough. Oddly enough if your appointment is on the 25th of nov and you fly on...

I paid with a Wells Fargo debit card and paid 205. I think I heard another person that paid with pesos and it sounded like the rate was the official exchange rate around 9 pesos. But don't take my word for it, I'm not sure. I also was worried about the SSN form and didn't even fill it out or...

We just got back from the embassy, let me explain the process. Our appointment was scheduled at 10:30. My wife and I and baby arrived at the front of the embassy at 10:15. We went straight up to the blue window for USA citizens, which is the first window on the left. I call it the blue...

When it gets hot in the city and clothes come off, what's the harm in window shopping, I iust can never go in the store, if you know what I mean

Interesting idea, I like these outside the box what if solutions. I don't think it's a good idea to separate people from their luggage, I think we are separated from our luggage too much as it is already.. We need to have some accountability for our items when we travel. I also think it...

They need to work on their stage lights. Looked more like a rock concert than a debate. And why can't politicians here wear ties? I watched 5 minutes and trying to be as fair and nonpartisan as an expat can be, I think macri clearly won. Scioli looked like a mafia boss on trial who got...

One last thing, make sure you have everything on the checklist and have as much physical presence evidence as possible. I have my high school and university transcript and my old passport. So I hope that's enough, good luck

The CRBA embassy BsAs page says this Delivery of CRBAs All documents are printed in the U.S. and then delivered via DHL, typically within 20 days. Applicants must visit the DHL branch at Avda. Cabildo 1209, Buenos Aires, to arrange payment. We strongly recommend visiting DHL before...

I'm in the same boat as you. We would like to travel before Christmas and we have our CRBA/passport appointment tomorrow the 16th of November. I'm hoping both things come before Christmas around December 10-20, four weeks after the appointment. I only bought one DHL waybill that says CRBA and...

I went ahead and bought Nutrilon 1 at farmacity, 800g for 298 pesos. We will see how she does.

1. Cheapest place to buy? (Carrefour Sancor 1 800g 140 pesos, Nutrilon 1 309 pesos) 2. Anyone else have bad reactions (lots of crying) with Sancor 1? Our two week old was fine and just recently started crying a lot usually after being bottle fed. She breastfeeds and is topped off with...

They all smell the same because they all use the same soap and deodorant. But because they don't have very good antiperspirant their good smell doesn't last long. As others have pointed out, wait until December or January and take a crowded bus or subway and then tell me just how goooood they...

Yes the cost of the ten day get out of our country visa is 600 pesos. I actually think it's called habilitación de salida. http://www.migraciones.gov.ar/accesible/indexN.php?habilitacion_salida They said that was my only option, they did not offer me any type of tourist visa extension, maybe...

They refused to renew the visa and recommended the Uruguay trip. I thought I could get away with not renewing the tourist visa until I left the country but now I really wouldn't advise people to live like that. Either pay the extension on time or do the paperwork for residency. I'm married to...

To give an update, I went down to migraciones at Retiro this morning at 7:30 and told the doorman I was there to extend my tourist visa, but it expired last year. They gave me a turno M003 which is the building in the back. I went back there and they told me that they can only give me a ten...

If I go to retiro tomorrow at 7:30 am, pay 600 pesos to renew my tourist visa, take the two hour bus ride, for the third day in a row, go through security, wait an hour for aduana to see me, only for them to tell me I can't get my package, oooh boy. I'm going to be nice, I'm going to be nice...

The fee from Aduana is around 700 pesos now to get my package, and after a lengthy chat with aduana they will let me have my package for that 700 pesos and a legal tourist visa stamp. I should just get my permanent residency since I've been married to my wife for over a year, but I just...

I know this has been talked to death here in the forums I just wanted to ask if anyone has been to retiro recently to renew their three month visa. I hear it's 600 big ones now, do you still just go with photocopy of your passport wait in line and pay? I was planning on doing all of that when...

I went back to Ezieza today with enough money to buy my package. If you have ever been to exieza's cargo terminal you see just how ridiculous the whole process is. You have to go to a little booth and sign in and they print you out a security pass. Then you go through security and eventually...

I didn't even receive any note or slip here at my apartment where my package was sent, I just read on the DHL tracking site, that it was waiting for clearance, which is what prompted me to go to DHLs office, where they told me about having to go to Ezeiza. In other news, I'm glad I don't live...
