    Wages have fallen 20% since 2018, worst drop in the region

    You may have never met Mr. Google AI, but he already appears to know at least this much about you (obviously, all good): "Ries is a top-ranked, long-term member and active contributor on the BAexpats.org community forum, noted for having one of the highest reaction scores among users. Based...

    Current therapist, hoping to study psychiatry in Argentina

    And, in order to enroll in a PhD program in Argentina: To get a bachelor's or master's degree certified for a PhD in Argentina, you must have your documents apostilled (or legalized) in the country of origin, translated by a certified Argentine public translator, and sometimes recognized by the...

    Current therapist, hoping to study psychiatry in Argentina

    I asked Google AI and recieved this reply: A PhD in Psychiatry from Argentina is not automatically recognized for independent practice in any US state, but it can be validated and recognized through a rigorous, state-by-state process. The recognition depends on whether the degree is intended...

    Wages have fallen 20% since 2018, worst drop in the region

    This article cites changes in the percentage of wages without any reference whatsoever to the peso amounts subject to the decline. Regardless of what the salaries were during the past eight years, I am focused more on how much wages and salaries are now. So I asked Google AI "What is the...

    The fastest I've ever gotten my DNI

    Do you have permanent residency? As far as I know, the only foriegners who can "order" a DNI at the Registro in their city (or the Registro in the comuna in which they reside in a large city like CABA) must already have permanent residency. I believe the individuals who have been posting about...

    The fastest I've ever gotten my DNI

    Hi Mary. I hope that migraciones soon decides in your favor and grants you temporary residency. Meanwhile, I suggest that you ask your lawyers about applying for citizenship without a DNI through the Federal Court as is currently being discussed in the "Obtaining Argentine Citizenship" thread...

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    Do you know if qny of the "other lawyers" have had any new cases accepted by any of the Federal Courts since May of 2025 and if any of those cases has resulted in Argentine citizenship for the client? Also, if any of those clients did not have either two years of temporary residency with a DNI...

    Seems citizenship by investment is kind of dead in the water?

    This is great information. I am not in favor of Argentine citizenship by investment, but it would be entertaining (at least to me) if it was implemented and ALL Argentine citizens suddenly found themselves "travel banned" (to any extent) to visit the USA, just because an infantesable number of...

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    Even if a case was filed (and "accepted" by a Federal Court) shortly after May 2025, has enough time passed since then for any court to actually complete the citizenship process? If I wanted to move to Argentina without having sufficient passive foreign income to qualify for temporary...

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    Have either the cost or the conditions of the CBI been revealed? If not, and migraciones is not yet processing "free" citizenship, then, at least for now, the only path forward appears to be through the Federal Court. A figure of $500,000 USD has been floating arround as a projected cost of a...

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    The first thing I thought of asking after reading this post is if your friends applied for citizenship before or after they had been in Argentina for two years and if any of them did not already have a DNI when their applications were submitted.

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    Please express the figure (8500k) with the appropriate periods and commas. Also clarify to whom it is paid. If it's $85.000 pesos, that's about twice as much as an overstay fee and seems quite reasonable. What I wanted to know is how much someone who applies for citizenship at a Federal Court...

    Has Argentina Become Worse Or Better for Foreign Retirees recently?

    For what it's worth, your post makes me more greatful than ever to still be alive and living a "healthy" life in Argentina. I was still 71 almost five years ago. My monthly "health insurance" cost is $0.00,00 (the same for the past fourteen years). My current monthly "prescribed" meds cost is...

    15 Month Waiting Time for Temporary Residency

    If I understand correctly, based on what I've read about the recent changes, being married to an Argentine citizen now only makes a foreigner eligible for temporary residency, which will become permanent on the third renewal of the temporary residency. I believe that a foreigner who has a three...

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    I don't think so. With the new requirement for two years of continuous physical presence in Argentina without leaving the country for even one day, your timeline for citizenship began on the date of your most recent entry, or, if you are presently out of the country, it will begin on the date of...

    Correo Argentino doesn't deliver mail to the USA

    For the first two or three years after my arrival in Argentina I used taxactonline.com. I never filed a paper return. It was easy and I was very happy with the results: no questions from or audits by the IRS.

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    I searched Bajo_cero2's posts with the word "constitutional" and found his previous answer: "...you can apply at DNM without a lawyer but it takes about 6 years since arrival. Or you can apply at Federal Courts but you need a lawyer and you need about 30 months since arrival to Argentina."...

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    It would be helpful to know if applying for citizenship through the Federal Court now requires a lawyer or it's possible for someone who has been in Argentina for two years with temporary residency and without leaving the country for even one day during the two years to do so on their own. If...

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    Do you mean that you just got permanent residency after completing 3 years of temporary residency based on pension income? I followed the same path from October of 2006 (when I was first granted temporary residency based on pension income) until January of 2010, when I was granted permanent...

    Obtaining Argentine citizenship

    If I understand correctly, based on the recent decree, the "path" to citizenship via migraciones requires two years of legal temporary residency and two years of continuous physical presence in Argentina before applying for citizenship (without a lawyer) and the clock for the two years of...
