Greetings all! Quick question- on the back of my DNI it shows the "fecha de radicación" and "fecha de vencimiento"- are these the same as starting and expiry date for my temporary residency? I found it odd that it was for two years August 2016-August 2018, since I was under the impression that...

Thanks for the input guys!

Greetings! While traveling outside Argentina I missed the home delivery of my DNI. Does anyone know how to recover a DNI after failed delivery? The cartero left a slip-receipt but none of the information on the card has been useful. Thanks!

Thanks for your help Ben and Steven!

Greetings! I have a question that perhaps someone with more experience can answer. I'll be leaving the country this coming Wednesday and my situation is the following: I recently obtained my Residencia Precaria (on my way to getting the temporaria) but in the interim my tourist VISA expired...

I agree with the few voices on here that question the shibboleth that "access to credit markets"= "good economic policy". Larger countries, like France or the USA are able to take on heavier debt loads because they wield much greater financial clout, and receive much more favorable loan terms...

Thanks everyone! Just a brief follow up question, probably as naive as the previous- while I'm back in the USA, is there no other, quicker way to get the background check, say with the state police? The message seems to be to wait until I've returned to Argentina to SEND the FBI prints, since...

Hey everyone. I've been a perma-tourist for the last year, living in Buenos Aires on a well-expired tourist visa. I'm now jumping through the hoops to get the FBI background check and all the other documents for the DNI, BUT in the interim I have to return to the united states. My question...

thanks philipdt. i respect lauren's sentiment, at the least the bit about the difficulties many groups face on the path to marriage. but philipdt is right, theirs is a struggle for rights, not for the traditional institution of marriage, and there I don't see how I'm slapping anyone in the...

thanks everyone for your helpful comments, and my apologies if i was a bit blithe in my initial post on the marriage issue!

My question is probably redundant, but I couldn't find any definitive answer on these forums. I'm currently in a masters program and going through the steps to get residence/dni. At the same time, my girlfriend has suggested we get married as a quick route to residence. she's nice like that...

Haha. Sorry I wasn't more clear. The Hudson Institute is a conservative think tank, with backing from Monsanto, Exxon Mobil, Procter & Gamble. I did watch a bit more, and yes, some panelists make some interesting points. Thanks!

Second this post by CanuckleHead. Be polite, but be firm. best advice on the matter.

meh. typical right wing pabellum from an arch-conservative think tank. there's PLENTY to criticize in the present Kirchner government, but the notion that Argentina needs to get back in step with international financial diktats is...giving me deja vu.

My own two cents: As one poster mentioned, let's not confuse panhandlers with muggers, the type that use "panhandling" as a cover to get close and lift your wallet. Just because someone gets a bit fresh doesn't mean they're mugging you. Let's not be crass. That said, being accosted can be a...

Greetings Expats! My questions concerns the student visa. Perhaps some of you out there have gone through the process of obtaining the visa and would care to share your experiences? To be precise, I'm looking to get the visa in order to study psychology (licenciatura) at the UBA. So far, the...

nuitzangaro! I don't know how I missed your post! I am indeed still looking to get my student visa and was interested to hear of others' experiences. Could you perhaps share difficulties you faced? In my case, I'm working through the CBC with the ultimate goal of studying psychology at the UBA...

Thanks Steven!!!

HI everyone. This question has probably been answered several times over in this forum, but just for sake of clarity: I am travelling to uruguay for the summer vacations on an expired tourist visa with plans to return to buenos aires. I have already renewed my visa once, but that also expired...

Hi everyone. Just a brief doubt: My visa expired this last week meaning I'm in the country with an expired tourist visa. At the same time I'm looking to apply for a student visa with the ministry of education. Should I expect any trouble getting the Student Visa with an expired tourist Visa? Are...
