    Anywhere I can rent a PO box?

    It's a good idea but I suspect they will require some Argentine ID to set it up and as I recall, the OP doesn't have any. Poste Restante is designed for foreigners just breezing on through and I should hope that his foreign documents would be fine.

    Anywhere I can rent a PO box?

    What about the internationally recognised Poste Restante service? You just need to specify which post office you will use to receive your mail. As it says in the link (below) there is a charge for this service. https://www.correoargentino.com.ar/que-es-poste-restante Word to the wise: Other...

    I moved from the US to Argentina for the lower cost of living

    At least you no longer have the Soviet Radio Tirana Interval Signals to contend with. Now imagine having that all day and every day? In those days if you lived within about a thousand miles of Albania you would dread those nights when the weather conditions were just right to allow broadcasts...

    I moved from the US to Argentina for the lower cost of living

    S'funny: I'm sure I remember that when you rocked up on this forum years ago you were asking about how you could apply for citizenship and talking about your foreigner's DNI.

    I moved from the US to Argentina for the lower cost of living

    Just out of interest, which route did you eventually take to claim your Argentine citizenship? In the end was it your mother, your wife or your child? Not that it matters now that you have left.

    Argentines spend more money abroad than tourists bring in

    Before I changed it, I used to have a signature line at the bottom of my posts in BAExpats that read: For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple and wrong. and I think that's the territory we are in here. The extent to which the super rich are gobbling up what...

    Musk reconsiders his chainsaw moment

    Wait a moment. I always mix up Musk and Milei. Let me see: one dresses in odd clothes, waves a chainsaw around and thinks he's the President. And the other one is Milei. Have I got that right?

    Argentum: Congressman proposes new currency to replace the peso

    What a great name!!! So great that it has already been adopted by an international metals business, a retirement living trade association and, with a lower case "g" crowded out by capitals, a perfume and fragrance company. And possibly more: I stopped looking after three. I only started looking...

    Coffee and cake prices

    I'm not in Argentina right now so perhaps someone could check this for me: last time I checked a gold coloured pack of Cabrales(1) ground coffee it said "torrado con azucar" not just torrado. I still think the Argentine word "torrado" simply means "roasted" as it does in the rest of the Spanish...

    Recommendations for bóveda rehab?

    Do you pay a service charge of any sort to anyone there? We do (Recoleta) and for us they would be the people we would contact to organise everything.

    Best and fastest visa to join my Argentine boyfriend – need advice!

    This forum has many people who are highly experienced in matters of residence, citizenship, marriage etc so the fact that nobody here has yet attempted to answer your questions probably means your situation is too complex for quick, easy answers. I notice that you are getting prolific amounts...

    Plans to build a Mormon temple next to a historic convent

    I don't mean to be too pedantic about this but just as with episcopal Christianity there is symbolism in the building designs and a distinction between chapels, churches and cathedrals - so with LDS buildings there is a difference in meaning and purpose between chapels, meeting houses and...

    Covid-19 shots & boosters available now in CABA

    I appreciate that English is not your first language but you would probably find it helpful to learn to recognise the difference between a person's own, original opinions and a link to the published work of others.

    Another Immigration Post-- Visa for Student for Syrian living in Istanbul

    Perhaps I'm missing something but that sounds awfully convoluted and fraught with difficulties when Argentina has, I believe, a refugee programme for Syrians. I don't know whether now being in a "safe" country (however at risk she might feel there) would hamper her acceptance by Argentina but if...

    My life with Correo Argentina

    That's a great idea if the bank card has already been mailed out to a family or friend's address. Not so easy trying to persuade NatWest (other banks are available) to ship out a copy of War And Peace with a card inserted at p971
