Do you pay a service charge of any sort to anyone there? We do (Recoleta) and for us they would be the people we would contact to organise everything.

This forum has many people who are highly experienced in matters of residence, citizenship, marriage etc so the fact that nobody here has yet attempted to answer your questions probably means your situation is too complex for quick, easy answers. I notice that you are getting prolific amounts...

I don't mean to be too pedantic about this but just as with episcopal Christianity there is symbolism in the building designs and a distinction between chapels, churches and cathedrals - so with LDS buildings there is a difference in meaning and purpose between chapels, meeting houses and...

I appreciate that English is not your first language but you would probably find it helpful to learn to recognise the difference between a person's own, original opinions and a link to the published work of others.

Perhaps I'm missing something but that sounds awfully convoluted and fraught with difficulties when Argentina has, I believe, a refugee programme for Syrians. I don't know whether now being in a "safe" country (however at risk she might feel there) would hamper her acceptance by Argentina but if...

That's a great idea if the bank card has already been mailed out to a family or friend's address. Not so easy trying to persuade NatWest (other banks are available) to ship out a copy of War And Peace with a card inserted at p971

I completely understand your stance on overstaying: I'd feel the same. How long is "a few months" and do you have an actual exit plan? If it is all as short and straightforward as it seems then my gut feeling is that just overstaying and paying the fine would be the least complicated way for...

So a MACO, not a TACO then?

Are we talking about the same Texas? The Texas I know of has become the international by-word for erratic energy supply and sky-high peak prices. 2021: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Texas_power_crisis Quote: Customers with pricing plans based on wholesale prices who had power faced large...

You want the Type "I" plug and socket. The polarity is not part of the general definition of Type "I.". The Australia/NZ electrical regulations specify polarity and clearly state which pin should be line and which should be neutral and their regulations require a ground/earth third pin if the...

Disclaimer: even though I know this stuff I'm going to tell you, I still keep bank cards, passport etc in emf protective pouches. So.. RFID or NFC chips can be read from between 1cm or less up to 100m or more but since the range is determined by the frequency of the signal and the application...

I think you are being a little disingenuous. I did not say that you couldn't make a profit, I said "on average - in order to make a profit from the ownership of Bitcoin it would be necessary either to steal it, steal the work required to make it or outsmart other people who own it" With a...

Did you look at the date on the document that you linked to?

Some years ago, prompted by the Buenos Aires Starbucks Crypto Scandal (if you don't already know about this, look it up) I did some back of the envelope calculations about Bitcoin. At that time - and I don't see any reason why anything would since have changed - the average value of Bitcoin from...

It may also be worth noting that many European "brands" are actually manufactured in Argentina and sometimes with specifications which differ from the originals. I know this because a while ago a relative bought what was the latest Argentine model Renault Clio which looked identical to the...

....two days later, there's an announcement about Canada doing the same thing https://www.nucnet.org/news/go-ahead-for-project-to-build-canada-s-first-small-modular-reactors-5-4-2025

I think it's also worth noting that quite a few people who were here at that time are still here but they don't often join in threads about money and food unless they have something to say that can help someone else. Kudos to you, @steveinbsas and @Johnny, you're always had positive things to...

The deal with Javier Milei shows how America-first dealmaking is bending global finance to serve authoritarian and extractive ends https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/apr/30/the-guardian-view-on-argentinas-bailout-when-trumps-ally-calls-the-imf-obeys-at-a-cost

I can't tell you whether grass fed beef tastes better because that's a matter of preference like coffee or tea but it certainly looks different. When cows do what cows have been doing for the past ten thousand years or so and they munch grass and pass it through their complicated multi-part...

Using duckduckgo.com - which doesn't track users so should give the same results for everybody - I searched on air fare discounts for seniors. Within the first page I found lots of sensible results the most interesting IMO being...
