That is alarming then. Seven stays (six of them regular and all of those well short of even the 90 days) over a four-year period (not a particularly intense program by many visitors' standards), but hung for the one overstay (albeit a long one).

From posts on an earlier thread that you initiated, it seems your long (over)stay was from early 2024 to mid 2025, and you reported having visited around 5 times prior to that, beginning in 2022. Since the long stay, you've come once, for two weeks in February, and now this attempted entry. It...

Whatever you do, remember that the more you transact electronically and the greater the amounts you spend electronically, the more visible you become to ACRA. While that is not a problem in the first year of your Rentista, you will quickly fall into tax residency after that, which creates...

Paige is correct. You cannot be outside the country around the expiry date of each precaria. Migraciones won't renew it if the system shows you overseas. And since you will probably need various precaria renewals while they assess your Rentista, and you can't predict how many days each precaria...

It's a strange thread topic, but I will chime in: one of my several recurring nightmares is one in which circumstances (e.g., a health scare, or anything really) force me back there permanently. And every time I go back, there IS a culture shock. In 15 years away, it's changed enormously, and so...

Everybody who contributes to the threads on this issue, from all sides, hopes the number is closer to 10,000 than to 30,000. Right? Nobody in this or similar threads goes out looking for evidence that the higher estimates are correct (say the CIA report from 1977 of 22,000) and then looks for...

Once we've been in Argentina on even a temporary resdiency for 12 months, unless we've stayed out of the country for 90 days during that 12 months, we"re tax residents from that pount forward. That's what the law says. It's been thoriughly researched and documented and notified on this website...

The more I think about it, I would go so far as to suggest that even if another poster here reported "yes, they made me count all my family members in calculating the amount" or "no, it was sufficient to only cover the adults", or any other formulation someone has been successful with, that...

I went the Rentista route once, using a rented property. It took three years for them to approve it, but that was mainly due to Covid disruption. Still, historically, it has been the slowest, most complex category they deal with. With a family of five, you may find they ask for an amount equal...

You might like this as well. As the nuclear fallout cloud made its way south in January 1959, Sinatra was in Melbourne for a couple of concerts (with the Red Norvo Quintet) that coincided with the shooting of the movie and allegedly had a passionate fling with his former wife, Ava Gardner.

Like 67 years back, for the original:

By the way, one of the migration practices has put out this. It claims that anyone who obtained permanent residency prior to 29 May 2025 is not subject to the one-year rule, by which permanent residency is lost if one remains out of the country for more than 365 days. In other words, those...

They invite you (I think by email, if the system asked you for an email address--my information is a bit out of date on that detail though) for an appointment at Migraciones to which you have to bring the original documents. If they are satisfied with everything you present, they take a photo...

Santander seems to charge me nothing at all. At the moment. I did a pension deposit yesterday, calculating US$1,350 to be a safe amount given the minimum wage for the month of February (346,800 pesos) and the current peso to US$ exchange rate.

By the way, I hadn't properly read your concern about prejudicing a future application by starting one now and then not completing it properly having been issued it (either by not depositing, or leaving the country for too long in the first year). I don't think they would hold such things...

Well, if my experience is any guide, assuming everything is OK with your renewal and they do eventually approve it, the disposicion, and the subsequent new DNI, will be back-dated to the date your first temporary residency expired.

Just to clarify what may seem like a contradiction between my first and second messages. In the event you didn't complete your first temporary residency (e.g., by leaving the country for too long) and then wanted to apply again, you would start the application from scratch and take, for...

Correct, in theory. If you haven't deposited, they would have grounds to knock you back at your renewal attempt. Having said that, since the depositing requirement came in (mid 2023) I got through two pensionista renewals (2024, 2025) with only two monthly deposits, in the two months leading up...

I was told yesterday by my immigration lawyer that DNI delays are currently at historic levels, due to a lack of plastic and industrial issues.

Going through the bureaucratic contortions might be well worth it in a way you can't yet see. The wheels turn very slowly. If your intention is only to stay a few months, then the mere act of applying for a temporary pensionista residency will suffice without you ever having to deposit a dime...
