    Western Union money transfer

    Are you able to have the same phone number associated with 2 different gmail accounts? Yes you can have as many google accounts and gmail accounts. You can also associate different google accounts with the same phone number. But I was under the impression that you could not associate 2 different...

    Western Union money transfer

    The google account you are currently using, has USA (or another country) as the country associated with your google account, not Argentina. That is why Google Play will make some apps available for you and not others. So you can change your associated country in your google account to Argentina...

    Western Union money transfer

    It would take 2 or 3 business days most of the time in my experience after the first transfer, but not guaranteed. If it is a transfer to your bank or wallet, then I would go with WU; otherwise, get the cash from your favorite cambio guy, especially if he delivers it to your home. I don't like...

    Overstaying - Entry to Argentina nearly denied

    90 day visa runs seem to raise more eyebrows than overstays. Before I got residency, I have overstayed several times. Always got a little bit of "please do something about your situations" when I entered via Rosario, but never via EZE. In Buenos Aires the customs agents usually say something...

    Questions for those married to an Argentine citizen.

    Family reunification doesn't require proof of income, just a declaracion jurada. The fact that they are asking you for the documents you have already submitted and that it is taking way too long, I would hire an attorney who has direct contacts with the immigration and can clear up all the...

You must provide "an apostilled or legalized certificate of good conduct issued by the competent authority of the countries where you resided for more than one year over the previous three...

    Western Union money transfer

    If you have a copy of your passport they might accept it together with your driver's license. Just a speculation on my part. They usually make a copy of your passport the first time you are there and keep the copy.

    Migraciones tramites by proxy?

    I would only trust a lawyer to answer this question. You can also give your lawyer a power of attorney via an online meeting with a notary public. Your lawyer should be able to connect you with a notary public. Then you can mail the documents to your lawyer and he or she can turn in the...

    Anybody else notice coffee recently not tasting good?

    How is it that the prices of local produce is more expensive than USA or Spain? Eggs, olive oil, bread? Probably greedflation is one factor, but are there any other factors?

    Traveling abroad before receiving DNI

    My lawyer had told me yes I can use the RaNaPer to travel if the DNI has not arrived. Also, assuming you are carrying a US passport, you don't need a tourist visa for Brasil until April 9 2025 even if you were not an Argentinian resident. . You should not have any problems going or coming except...

    Registering with MercadoLibre

    Thanks for the clear and precise explanation Obi! I have a follow up question. You said you receive bank and credit card SMS through google voice. What is the usecase for TextFree? Is it just an alternative to google voice app? Can you still get SMS from your bank using TextFree?

    Dólar Blue Predictions

    If the official rate is not artificially kept low, as the current government promises not to do, then there should be no gap. Don't you think? Or do you predict this government will also try to control the official rate just like the previous governments.

    Dólar Blue Predictions

    A wild and useless guess on my part just for fun: There was a small bubble on the blue during the elections, the rate will be around 1000 until January 2024, then it will start behaving in a similar manner to how it behaved in 2023 - mostly and gradually moving up depending on the dollar's value...
