This is how it worked for me the first time with Santander: 1) I sent the money from my bank overseas. 2) Santander sent me a confusing email telling me the money had arrived and needed to be liquidated. 3) I went into Home Banking and on the left hand side of the screen choose the Menu and...

We get it. You won the long running argument days ago in the other thread.

If you are a Argentine tax resident not paying Argentine tax (I'm not suggesting you are), and if the tranfers are large, might it make them more visible to ACRA and more likely to trigger an audit? Might it prompt Santander (if it hasn't already) to ask you to declare your home country tax...

Yes, but you've finally won the argument. And all credit to you. So, time to stop now. OK?

I guess this finally settles the debate held over numerous threads and many years. Perry wins: Buenos Aires really is the most expensive city in the world to eat out. Thank god we can finally put the matter to bed once and for all.

Worrying. For years I only accessed home (country) banking from the website from my home computer, which has good security and requires two sets of unguessable passwords/numbers to log on. Now, suddenly, the bank won't let me enter that way without first installing its app on the phone so it...

We get it.

What Bajo is probably saying is the process following the recent changes is: 1.) Get married. 2.) Request temporary residency in the category of family reunion (unlike before, when marriage was a direct path to permanent residency). 3.) Be issued a precaria (just as has always happened in all...

More to the point, there have been widely publicised changes to migration recently, and these are now incorporated into the Migration Law: https://servicios.infoleg.gob.ar/infolegInternet/anexos/90000-94999/92016/texact.htm. Scroll down to Article 23, paragraph (ñ) to see that family...

If you have a look at the current thread "Where to start learning about taxes/Pensionado visa?" you will see a fellow called "Whattodo" who says he is currently is applying through family reunion for permanent residency. This is the official page where the National Migration Directorate lists...

The key point is this: just as Argentine tax law defines the rules for when an individual becomes a tax resident, loses tax residency (and then regains it having lost it), so too does UK law. And both these sets of rules operate independently of each other: you don't automatically lose tax...

Here it is: Pérdida de la condición de resident Art. 120 - Las personas de existencia visible que revistan la condición de residentes en el país, la perderán cuando adquieran la condición de residentes permanentes en un Estado extranjero, según las disposiciones que rijan en el mismo en...

You're from the UK, I think. Argentina has a tax agreement with the UK. So before you do anything to register with ACRA, you will need tax accounting advice--in both countries--about how that would operate in your particular circumstances and which taxes you would pay to which government...

If you only spend one day in the country, or even any number between 1 and 90, you lose your tax residency. See my first post.

You indicated when you joined the site that you were looking at staying here via civil union. The recent changes to Migraciones seem to indicate that residency by marriage or civil union no longer leads to PR directly, but instead, like the other categories, to temporary residency initially. And...

Everything here, and elsewhere in Latin America, is monthly. (If you're seriously considering signing up to ACRA and starting to pay tax, get professional advice first. As Bajo says (in his inimitable style, for his own reasons, and using Argentine logic) and many others will too: Don't do it...

OK, but I did make that clear in the initial post. Some of us learned how to write carefully (and with bullet points and other punctuation) long before Chat made it fashionable. Long before Sam Altman was even born. On the accuracy of AI, I do think it has a lot to do with how carefully we...

Digital Nomad Visa. (You will recall Bajo has been somewhat scathing about it in the past.)
