Like you, I consume instant coffee. Last year I stopped buying Nescafe Clásico 170g (sin azúcar) and switched to Cabrales La Planta 170g (also sin azúcar) which was a little cheaper, possibly because, as indicated on the label, "PUDE CONTNER LECHE" (milk powder). The main reason for the switch...

Infobae articles translate automatically,at least on my Samsung A02. In any case, here's the translation: "Last week I was in New York, on the 15th floor of JP Morgan's new tower on Park Avenue, listening to Javier Milei inaugurate Argentina Week before more than 300 investors, bankers, and...

From my own experience I know that any document that has a notarized signature can receive the apostille. The Secretary of States of Illinois issued the apostille for a copy of my irrevocable trust which had a cover letter signed by the lawyer who drafted it. I also provided migraciones with a...

Opting out of Medicare part B should free up about $300.000 pesos per month for US retirees over 65. I'm over 75 and I haven't had health insurance in Argentina for more than ten years. My health care costs, including medications are close to zero. I recently replaced my oximeter and blood...

I seriously doubt that your stated desire "to visit Argentina as a tourist only" will carry much weight with migraciones. They have a file that shows that you actually applied for temporary residency while you were in Argentina and left the country within a few days. I am reasonably certain...

Please read this and tell us if the agent asked you to provide the any or all of the documentatlon required to qualify for temporary residency: "Chinese citizens applying for temporary residency in Argentina must present a valid passport (with at least 6 months validity and two blank pages), a...

Everyone, including me, that Patricia helped get temporary residency (by going to migraciones to act as an interpreter) were "here as a tourist" at the time. The question I would ask RXA is if he knew about the reqirements for temporary residency and already had the required documents with the...

$2000 USD became the unofficial "monthly income requirement" in USD for the Rentista/Pensionado Visa when migraciones increased the official monthly income requirement from $8.000 to $30.000. At the time, the official exchange rate was $15 pesos to one dollar. The math speaks for itself. If the...

I believe that a year ago the price of a 170 gram jar of Nescafe Classico instant cafe on Mercado Libre was about $13.000 pesos. Today the price is about $13.500...

Point 3 in my previous post should be: As for sugar, I sincerly believe it is worth the 18 minutos for anyone who is still consuming sugar in any form, including anything made with wheat or wheat flour (bread, cookies, pastries, cake, etc.) rice, pasta, corn, cereal (as well as the vast...

1. Soy protien isolates are not a milk product; According to Google AI: "...soy protein isolates and powdered milk are not the same. Soy protein isolate is a highly processed, plant-based protein (over 90% protein) derived from soybeans, lactose-free, and cholesterol-free. Powdered milk is...

I asked Google AI and got this reply: "In Argentina, while public hospitals offer free emergency care for everyone (regardless of nationality), recent 2025 reforms mean non-resident tourists without insurance may be billed for non-urgent care, and some provinces now charge for services...

If you go (or are taken) to an emergency room in a public hospital you probably won't/shouldn't have to pay anything. Perhaps nikad can confirm.

The best thing about the chorizo in the photo is that there is a list of ingredients on the package which reveals how many chemicals have been added, as well as azucar (sugar). I stopped buying chorizo over two years ago, after reading the ingredients on a package in a supermarket. Sugar and...

I rarely buy beef or pork these days, not so much because of the price, which has increased significantly in the past year; it's because I don't like to consume meat that isn't frozen when I buy it in Punta Alta, about 10km from my house. I started buying chicken wings (always frozen) at the...

You will have to already have temporary residency to become a monotributo... In the past a few individuals have used the word "sponsor" when referring to an Argentine employer who is licensed tlby migraciones to hire foreigners. I don't recall anyone applying for a student visa ever saying...

As indicated in the previous post, getting married to your Argentine gf is the only path for you to get temporary residency which is renewable annually. If she has "enough money" for the two of you, migraciones, may not care if you can't show any personal income en Blanco. As the husband of an...

Just got an email from ARBA. The impuesto for 2026 increased by about 40% over 2024 and 2025 from about $68mil in 2025 to $95mil (minus 15% if paid in one cuota).

Impossible for almost everyone...with the exception of those who prepare...sometimes years in advance...for the inevitable.

I also asked Google if ICE officers are required by law to have visible identification (with their names on their uniforms while acting in their official capacities: officers to identify themselves as immigration officers when making arrests, as soon as it is "practical and safe," but there is...
