    Google FI internet speeds

    If the new Android phone has eSIM functionality, she should log in to her Google Fi account in a laptop/browser and chat with help desk to walk her through how to transfer her Fi service to the new phone. If not eSIM support (and too late to return and replace the new phone), maybe she can...

    Western Union money transfer

    It worked once and not the second time. Thank you for sharing. It does seem it is designed for one time but not necessarily only for the receiver.

    The IRS and Expats, FBAR penalties

    This has nothing to do with tax obligations or expats. It applies to every US citizen and resident even if you don't have any tax obligations, even if you live in the USA.

    Western Union money transfer

    Thanks. But it seems it can be used only once. I had used my own code before, but it wouldn't let me use it a second time Your code didn't work either. Was anyone else able to use their code more than once?

    Uruguay Visa Run

    One option you have is not do a visa run. When it is time to leave from EZE in January, go to the airport an hour earlier and pay the overstay fee. That means you will not go to any other country until you leave Argentina. If you go to Colonia (or any other country) before your visa expires, I...

    Kindle question

    Yes you can use your kindle in Argentina or in any other country. If you want to purchase and load new kindle books, you need an Amazon account and a wi-fi connection. No need to use a VPN.

    My experience extending tourist visitor visa - Ask Me Anything (AMA)

    No difficulty at all at the immigration office at the airport. I paid in cash at the bank. Immigration first gives you the paper to take to the bank. Then you return to the immigration with the receipt to get another printout. Then you need to show that paper at the check-in and then at the...

    My experience extending tourist visitor visa - Ask Me Anything (AMA)

    My experience with overstay: I went to the immigration at the airport. The fee was 12500 pesos regardless of the duration. Paid the fee at the bank and went back to the immigration and got the printout. Checked in and went to the customs. The lady was a little confused and asking questions about...

    My experience extending tourist visitor visa - Ask Me Anything (AMA)

    I searched and searched but could not find the answer anywhere. If the overstay is more than 2 years, what is the fine currently? The immigration site say 12,5 UMSM for Extra Mercasur but doesn't say anything about the timeline. Should I assume the double that? Also not sure if the covid...

    Any change on entrance requirements to argentina?

    This is a very unfortunate thinking in my opinion. The cases will go up in Argentina as well in the winter. Even the boosted people are getting COVID. Many people with COVID are not taking official tests, since most recover in a week or less. The unknown question is how many of them will suffer...
