But how did that happen? You said “since I'm a full-time resident ARCA has come for their share” what does that mean exactly - they reached out to you?! They knew you were making money overseas, and how much? How? I’ve never heard of that happening to anyone. What happened

Then you are wayyyy over thinking this. I started the residencia process two months ago and at the time was on my 7th consecutive overstay. They didn’t ask about it at all. Just go to the appointment with your Argentinean wife and they won’t care about your overstays at all.

Married to an Argentinian or a foreigner?

The president of the Argentine Real Estate Chamber is always the best guy to trust when it comes to real estate sales predictions

Does this mean in simple English that they literally blew $800 million yesterday manipulating the futures market, or something else?

And the Blue has reached parity with the Dólar Oficial today …..

Hey OP. Too many of the commenters above are unfortunately enjoying reprimanding you and kicking you in the face while you’re down. But the truth is there are plenty of people living here 5+ years doing what you did who never had a problem. What happened to you is extremely rare and boils down...

Fair enough. Luckily I worked out a system so that I can operate on the blue the past two years; I've never needed to transfer via WU or with the MEP rate. So I hope it won't affect me. Also worth pointing out that expats can always transfer with crypto and so even if the MEP gets "pegged", the...

I don’t follow this part. Once it hits 1400 the government is going to intervene again the official dollar. That will cause the blue to diverge again as the official dollar is being government manipulated again and so the blue will rise above 1400 and de-“peg” (not that it’s technically pegged...

I’m still here and don’t want to leave, but we’ll see. For now I can survive. I don’t understand how any of this can last, but that’s what I thought 12 months ago too yet here we are, so clearly it can go on for another 3 years too. As bad as I feel for myself, I feel worse for my many local...

Same thing happened about 9 months ago when prices started to really go nuts, supermarkets said they’d fight it. After a month slowly the price increases get quietly accepted and happen anyway … it makes for a great headline for the supermarkets but don’t count on it following through

Yeah sure but nobody pays such rates for a full time job, at $20 an hour that would be $3200 a month

My god, who are you hanging out with?

I disagree. When I came here just 2.5 years ago, I hired a young single guy freelance hourly for random things I needed. I was paying $10 an hour adjusted weekly with the blue and he was beyond thrilled - he was making more than all his friends. 6 months ago, I was already raising him to $18 an...

My favorite coffee shop finally went up from 4000 to 4400 pesos for a latte (other shops in the area went up a few weeks ago). The prices keep climbing …..

If they just want to ride and don’t need a trail, there are schools to ride at here in the center of the city - Escuela Hipocampo, Club Aleman, etc. They might also be interested in watching a race at the Hipodromo.

The restaurants look plenty full to me …

If the client isn’t from here, you can receive it with a non-Arg wallet and cash it out at a cueva… 🤷🏼

I eat my words. Went today. Waiting over an hour already, only five people ahead of me but the line doesn’t move at all, and there twenty people behind me. One person working. Total mess.

As others have said, depends on the airline. American Airlines couldn’t care less. Avianca and other latam-based airlines make a fuss about it even if your husband has citizenship. Migraciones doesn’t care.
