Some changes last week to the government lifting banking regulations affecting dollar bank-bank transfers making it easier to send and receive dollars within the regular banking system. They also removed the requirement to get central bank approval for dollar transactions over $10.000, raising...

I think it depends more on the country of residence you tell the IRS and/ or your bank - if it is listed as "Argentina" then it gets swept up in the automatic data dumps delivered to AFIP. It is in no way a targeted hunt for DNI holders in the US which is after all just one of hundreds of other...

Ojo, from memory the they did ask for a US address to set up the account, can be friends or family, but this can be different to the correspondence mailing address you register which can be anywhere in the world.

It is very easy, or at least for me it was. I have done it myself in California and am not a US citizen. Opened one last year. Make an appointment or walk-in off the street (Chase, USBank, BoA), have an interview with a banker explaining why you need it, fill out the forms, pay the minimum...

Crazy to think that double digit inflation seems "normal" and a welcome relief after almost two years of triple digit inflation. "Just" 60% is like going back to 2019... perhaps by the end of the decade it will be down to single digits as it was pre-2009...

Kidnapping, not really a thing since the early 2000s. Violence on the street, most commonly in conjunction with robbery, can and does happen like anywhere but also not as bad as say Brazil or Colombia and risk can be reduced by sticking to nicer areas and applying common sense. “Targeted”...

https://www.afip.gob.ar/572Web/carga-datos/alquileres.asp Tax deductions for rental expenses have always existed. You need to be registered as an employee, pensioner or autonomo to access them however. Here is the guide on how to do it and register the contract.

They are instead appealing to tenants to register rental contracts in order to be able to deduct their rent payments from their own income tax bills, rather than depend on landlords declaring contracts in order to be able to pay tax on their rental income. A shift towards encouraging compliance...

Who is trying to convince a pension who receives his pension through Western Union?

100% agree each person should decide for themselves, and most importantly seek professional advice from an accountant not a forum of foreigners with a superficial (if that..) understanding of Argentine taxation, laws and language. For those with a genuine interest in the subject, it starts with...

Not quite, depositing money in a special account just avoids/ minimises the penalties due. Only physical cash needs to be deposited in order to be declared. Anything else, you decide what to do with it and where to keep it. The penalty due depends on: - When you enrol - How much you declare -...

Good post. Important to point out that more than policy, it is likely limited only by the systems and information AFIP has at its disposal to detect tax irregularities and be able to confront infractions without being exposed to a lengthy and costly wild goose chase to collect a few thousands...

Deny. Deny. Deny. Then someone discovers the chats and photos and it becomes a case of denying the denial. Just like the vacunatorio VIP. Just like the insurance scandal. Not like this guy does not have a violent character that has been caught on camera before...

History will likely just repeat. The last time there was no CEPO (for a few very short years prior to 2019) the Blue (informal) dollar was actually worth slightly less than the official dollar - in practice only used as an option for those that had dirty money or tourists that wanted to avoid...
