Might seem a bit strange in any case. People deserving refugee status but not receiving actual, classic refugee status... I think it is to grant the power of welcoming refugees to Migraciones, even though the actual refugee agency might not agree, or be too slow. I'd bet some politicians from...

Have you seen the apartment referred to, above? It's a rather bad apartment, with a small second floor accessible through a dangerous stair, no windows, ugly depressing sleeping room. Its real price would be 60k , and even at 60k I would not buy. I would maybe buy at 45K though, maybe, if partes...

It's not very surprising. The owners of the Cambio agencies have zero interest in having Argentine pesos in their drawers, for months, until borders open. Plus, no one buys Argentine pesos abroad, not even prior to traveling to Argentina. The only reason the owners would take Argentine...

Wouldn't apply to most of foreigners' cases, as I read : se encuentran amparadas por el principio de no devolución - unless the coronavirus situation in your country of origin, is so bad that it would be considered a crime against humanity to send you back.

The real opportunities are in small, low-key, not active online, Real estate agencies, the ones where the old, and old-school, owners advertise their apartments to the local buyers walking by. You need to walk in the streets of BsAs to find the rare catch.

Lot of people make easy money in Argentina, though. Like, 5% of the population. And a fraction of those even make their easy money legally.

But it still exists, the Union Convivencial, even for people of different sexes (man and woman). It is useful to avoid costly divorce procedures, if things were to go bad at some later point (it happens sometimes).

Thanks for the answer. Is it only valid with marriage, or does it also work with an Union Convivencial? Also, did I get this right, are you advising to apply directly before a Federal Judge, without going first through Migraciones? I thought the Federal Judge was just the last step of the...

But you still need to comply with the other requirements, right, like for example obtaining the "antecedentes" from your native country?

Argentina needs to pass laws that attract investment from business to take pressure off government as the primary employer and expand the tax base: very true, but we've been hearing this recommendation for decades and decades, regarding Argentina: "attract foreign investments!". And it seems to...

I'm not sure about that. I think it's the president himself who's been making the most important appointments, lately. Especially as CFK is still a bit impaired by her past problems, you know, the complex judicial front. Also, the president is much stronger than many foreigners think. He's got...

Argentina should do what other generous center-Left countries (Italy, Portugal) do, legalize the residencies of all foreigners trapped inside the country. Let's do the kind, generous thing here. Permanent Residency for all foreigners stranded in quarantine. It'd also be great for the economy...

To be able to come back, you'd need first to be able to leave. I hope you're in no hurry, considering...

Meanwhile Italia is reportedly about to legalize the residency of the 600.000 undocumented people living (and currently, trapped by quarantines) on Italian soil. Portugal did the same, couple of weeks ago... Worth noting that the president is friend with both the Portuguese and Italian leaders...

OK, let me try to explain, as I see it: "Las prórrogas aquí dispuestas, aplicarán a toda aquella residencia o inscripción cuyo vencimiento hubiese operado a partir del día 17 de marzo de 2020 inclusive y por el término de TREINTA (30) días corridos. " It means that , if your normal visa...

Get yield where, though? What would you invest in, after this crisis? Real Estate remains the only safe investment, with gold. But if you have ideas of stuff that would yield benefices in Argentina, apart from buying a vineyard in Mendoza, please share :)

I have answered this part, above on the thread (post number 12). Tourists are included in the residentes transitorios list of people getting the 30 extra days.

It's not really strange though. Argentina is evidently one of the very best countries to live in if you have a good bit of money. You can live with no worries, no war, no pollution, great outdoor activities, tons of fun activities in BsAs, splendid food and wine and many pretty women, plus...

Our kind of panic! That's the spirit in any case, don't give away your assets easily!

You should be able to wire to an Argentine bank if you show them a notarized document stating that you're in the process of buying an apartment in Argentina.
