    Running US Business from Argentina – Any tips?

    Why would you register anything, just work en negro remotely like all the other nomads/remote workers

    How many of us are still here?

    Coming from BA you'll be sorely disappointed. BA is pretty much the gold standard in terms of a walkable city. A couple neighborhoods in Mexico City can compare, but I haven't been anywhere else in Latin America that has the same combination of walkability, good climate and relative safety that...

    Citizenship - Was advised not to leave Argentina

    Totally wrong info. You do not need to own property to become a citizen. The address you indicate at the start of your citizenship case is verified by a certificado de domicilio at the local police station. It could be an Airbnb or just some place you're crashing at at the time. No courts in...

    Can anyone suggest an ATM in Palermo

    You need to learn how to use western union, there's a big thread on here about it, there is the main branch downtown on Av Cordoba and Montevideo that always has money in stock. Paying a 30% fee to withdraw pesos cash from an ATM machine is obviously not sustainable

    Citizenship - Was advised not to leave Argentina

    From the courts perspective there is no difference in whether you're married to an Argentine citizen or if you have Argentine citizen children, they both give you the same privilege to start a court case immediately without waiting 2 years first. The semantics of how to frame your absence from...

    Sure, it's better to pay in cash even as many drivers prefer it

    Got deported

    Yes these folks were basically the precedent. Nowadays you can have the lawyer on standby while you're coming back, if you get let in fine. If not, the lawyer is ready to go and will get you released within a few hours. Of course these types of situations are not as salacious as the pregnant...

    Taxi app taxi application in Argentina

    Didi is the best. In the daytime it can be a bit faster to hail a city taxi from the street. However at night there is an additional surcharge for city taxis and you're better off just waiting for the Didi to show up.

    Got deported

    Yes as I mentioned in my first post the lawyer obviously doesn't issue an order from his own accord, but makes an emergency petition to a judge to have a stay issued and that you're allowed into the country. It was all over the news media a while back that Russians were getting denied at Ezeiza...

    Got deported

    That's right, as steveinbsas mentioned a lawyer can have a stay issued immediately while you're still at the airport. Having applied for citizenship beforehand is not necessary

    Got deported

    You could have called a lawyer and had them get an Amparo from a judge to let you in, would recommend registering your relationship and then applying for the DNI to not worry about this anymore

    Citizenship - Was advised not to leave Argentina

    For any other readers in the thread this methodology does not work anymore. The courts are coming out that if you do not continue to live in Argentina after starting your case, you will be rejected. Recent sentence below rejecting citizenship for an individual that had a baby, but then left...

    Citizenship - Was advised not to leave Argentina

    Your lawyer doesn't seem like he's up to speed. CABA is the most lenient jurisdiction by far. The provinces will be much more strict, the upside is there is a potential to resolve the case faster depending on where you go. CABA has a large backlog due to the flood of Latino immigrants, and also...

    How many of us are still here?

    I know many younger folks have left, I love BA but the cost of living just doesn't make sense anymore and doesn't seem to have prospects of fixing itself anytime soon

    Citizenship - Was advised not to leave Argentina

    It's included right on the naturalization certificate when they give it to you, if you obtained it via fraud they can cancel it. As Dr Rubilar will probably mention there was a case in Cordoba in which the court employees were bribed to issue citizenship to several hundred Chinese people, and...

    Citizenship - Was advised not to leave Argentina

    This particular individual had a baby born in Argentina which gives them the right to apply for citizenship immediately without waiting 2 years first. But like I mentioned earlier, the days of "remote" applications are over. You cannot file for citizenship and then leave. You must live in the...

    Citizenship - Was advised not to leave Argentina

    There's more to this story, as naturalized citizens must swear an oath in person at the court. Once you have the citizenship certificate, it is indeed possible to apply for a DNI and passport at the embassy. Though it will take much longer to get the documents compared to doing it at Renaper...

    Citizenship - Was advised not to leave Argentina

    You can maintain a residence permit with 6 months per year presence, however you are not likely to be approved for citizenship by the fiscal with such an absence

    I fell for an online scam that is withdrawing from my bank account

    You can report these as fraudulent transactions to your bank and you should receive a refund as they can reverse the transaction

    Need advice on how to litigate and recover my loss from a potential fraud.

    I'll let some of the old timers chime in later, they may have more experience on this having lived in Argentina, maybe there is indeed a magic bullet, though sounds like the lawyer already lost his license
