OSDE 450 July bill 1.203.145 pesos for two people.

I live in CABA and pay an outrageous 1.2 million pesos for month for two people for OSDE 450. There are never any co-pays and it comes with useful travel insurance so that is a true all in price. Im in early 40's and the wife is late 20's and we both live very healthy lifestyles and years go...

The Argentine peso value is not set by "the market". Only individuals (and not businesses; they cannot repatriate dividends, etc) are allowed to purchase foreign currency in any quantity in the official FX market and the Central Bank is bleeding about $2 billion USD per month (most of which...

Unfortunately, it is the hideously overvalued FX rate that is incentivizing outgoing tourism and killing incoming and domestic tourism. Argentine citizens are simply behaving as rational actors by traveling abroad when it makes more financial sense than traveling domestically. We've seen this...

I suggest you get yourself a more creative and knowledgeable accountant. Paying self employment taxes in Argentina is legitimate cause for not paying the US version.

I hope you are utilizing the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion if you are a legal tax resident of Argentina. This entitles you to a $120k USD + write off on your US taxes for earned income.

Foreigner born residents residing in Argentina have no rights to citizenship. Only people born on Argentine soil OR to at least one native born Argentine parent abroad have a right to citizenship. Foreign born residents in Argentina may be granted citizenship at the discretion of the judge...

Wow the participants in this thread appear to be mouthpieces for the Communist Party of Argentina. Imagine you own a hospitality sector business that has descended into bankruptcy as a result of the ongoing economic crisis in Argentina, overvalued FX rate which killed incoming foreign tourism...

This would be instantly flagged as everyone entering or leaving Argentina submits to a digital fingerprint and facial recognition technology equipped photograph. Those in combination with the same birthday and name would undoubtedly flag an alert in the system.

Stay far, far away from any "plan de ahorro". Back in 2016 I was able to finance about 50% of the price of a new truck at 15% interest over 24 months. GM has (or had) their own finance arm that basically had no requirements as long as you could come up with about the half cost up the vehicle...

All day yesterday and most of today I also got an error message when trying to send a MoneyGram transfer from USA debit card to Argentine MercadoPago account. I am physically located in the USA at the moment. Fortunately I tried again at 16:15 EST and the transaction went through as normal, so...

Again you are providing misinformation. These are the requirements to be president: https://www.congreso.gob.ar/constitucionSeccion2Cap1.php It says you must be either category 1 or category 2 of the citizenship classes I listed AND you must meet all the requirements to qualify for election...

This is also not true. Ive posted about this before in mild debates with BajoCero, but there are three classes of citizenship in Argentina- 1. Natural born citizen (born within the border of Argentina) 2. "Argentino por opción" (born outside the borders of Argentina to a natural born...

This is naked speculation based on zero facts. There is no requirement at all to maintain residency inside Argentina after citizenship has been obtained. Also, your insinuation that Naturalized Citizenship can simply be stripped away on a whim without a judicial process and notification is...

Winners: Locals that want to buy real estate. Real estate prices have not gone up much and are still way below their 2017 peak. Salaries in USD have gone way up from their 2023 bottom and now there is a mortgage market available to some people. Real estate is by far the most important asset...

Denied entry is not the same as deportation. Anyone who is not a citizen or legal resident of Argentina can be denied entry for any reason at the discretion of the Immigration officer. Deportation for a person already legally inside the borders of Argentina is an entirely different process...

It is a published law- I sent a link to it sometime last year during a mild debate with BajoCero on one of these threads. It is clearly stated that naturalized citizenship obtained under fraud, false pretenses, or using the document of a foreign country inside Argentina can lead to revocation.

Keep it mind that unless you are involved in a violent altercation (street fight, bar fight, domestic violence etc) the chances of being arrested or detained in the City of Buenos Aires are virtually zero. There are many good reasons to get temporary/permanent residency and/or citizenship but...

I applied for Citizenship (I was one of Dr. Rubilar's first few cases) in either July or August 2012 and it was granted in November 2013 (delay was due to my own actions in taking too long to get some documents from the USA). I had neither temporary or permanent residency at the time although I...

What occurred here sounds like Wire Fraud, which is a felony in the United States and you should attack the problem there. If you still have contact with the scammer, I would make it clear to him that unless he makes you whole that you will be filing a report with the FBI, advising the US...
