    CDI appointment

    Hi everyone, for anyone who has had an appointment for a CDI, can you please confirm if it's just my certificate of domicile and passport (+ copies) that I need to take as a non resident? I saw on some of the links I received from the AFIP that I need to also have a formula 663 completed, is...

    What is your status while waiting for citizenship application to be processed?

    As someone that loves the idea to retire on a Brazilian beach the ease to live and work in other MERCOSUR countries is the biggest advantage for me.

    Trying to contol crypto

    "Hi this is the AFIP. Now that we've restricted dollar purchases we see that you are trying to protect the value of your savings from 40+ inflation through crypto? Yeah sorry we can't be having that."

    Picking up money without ID

    I think they only check that the name matches, I don't think they are checking expiry dates.

    Chinese delegation in Argentina to offer the Air Force, the supersonic aircraft JF-17

    Nothing says you are on the side of the common worker more than splashing out on supersonic jets while 42% of the country lives in poverty.

    Budgeting for raising two children in a small pueblo

    I can only imagine this family spending money in the pueblo like Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels in Dumb and Dumber when they reach Aspen.

    Standing in line.

    As someone from the British Isles queuing is almost a religion (I almost broke down in tears in Japan to find out there was another country that valued queuing like us...), therefore queue jumping and lack of respect in general for a queue is an absolute rage inducer. I haven't actually had...

    Remote Jobs companies? Need ASAP

    Engoo doesn't take anything from the 10 USD, only cost to me is the Western Union transfer which is 4.99 roughly for my monthly transfers from France. Thankfully my day to day costs are low, so I'm having a few conversations in the morning and then enjoying (when I can) Buenos Aires in the rest...

    Remote Jobs companies? Need ASAP

    Although the market to teach English is completely saturated with teachers I'm getting all the hours I need on a website called Engoo.com. It involves very simple conversation lessons with Japanese students, the pay of 10 USD an hour would usually be laughed at in the teaching English world but...

    Tax implications of COVID overstay

    Thanks, now it is mainly online income from teaching English from non-Argentine sources (so no big $) but I did have a big(ish) sale of bitcoin this year (again though nothing out of the ordinary). My partner has a few questions in relation to her tax returns etc so I'll take the oportunity to...

    Tax implications of COVID overstay

    Hi everyone, I'm going to ask a tax professional this question but I was wondering if anyone on here has any insight, knowledge or views on the tax implications (if any) for people who have overstayed in Argentina during the pandemic and have therefore stayed in Argentina more than 183 days...

    Is Western Union asking non-residents for a CDI now?

    Should be noted the Western Union charges for transfers are far lower in Europe (or at least France from where I transfer money).

    Is Western Union asking non-residents for a CDI now?

    Not yet but I'm off to Western Union on Thursday to pick up cash so I'll report the latest once (if) I pick it up.

    Why do you choose Argentina?

    I was in the middle of the beginning of a round the world trip when the pandemic started, I arrived in Argentina one day before the borders closed. What I had planned to be a two or three month stay pre Covid has turned into a stay of more than a year so far in which I met my girlfriend and I...

    Updated COVID restrictions on circulation

    I'm staying near Once and the situation is horrendous in terms of lack of social distancing and the % of people not wearing masks or wearing them in such a way they are completely useless. The measures put in place might have had a chance of working if the population could have a little respect...
