The similarity of Trump's policies to those of Peronism is as uncomfortable for the Peronistas as it is for Milei. So far, the only Peronist I've heard admit its overlap with Trumpism is Guillermo Moreno (who, by the way, applauds Milei opting to align with the US rather than China).

I am also in Australia at the moment. I will verify the 7/11 claims in the next few days, but they seem about right. I can, however, already report that the least I have paid for a chicken bahn mi from a shopping center food court (I would think the cheapest, faster option available anywhere)...

Can't comment on anything west of San Antonio de los Cobres (if that is the route you plan to take), but we did the stretch from San Antonio to Salta in mid October on a bus tour to the Train to the Clouds. It was quite comfortable and only took three hours. Note, though, that Salta's rainy...

OK, well the notion of a temporaria of longer than 365 days is news to me and good information to have. What category is it available in? Even so, if three years remains the minimum for applying for PR, if you have one of these three-year temporary residencies, why would you need even one...

The first paragraph is exactly what my post said: "Two successive temporaries lead to permanent residency for Mercosur foreigners; for non-Mercosur, it is three successive temporaries.". The second paragraph is impossible to follow on every level. Let's lay it out this way (again leaving the...

It helps to clarify terminology and use it carefully. There are no "visas" and thus no "student visa" or "work(ing) visa". "Visa" is a term we foreigners here tend to default to as a kind of jargon we are used to, but it confuses matters. In Argentina there are just "residences" (residencias)...

I looked up the answer to my own question. You are correct: such a person would still pay tax to the US on US-sourced income (and, indeed, do so at generally higher rates than they would have paid if they had remained a US tax resident). So there is no solution to the double tax problem: indeed...

Is renouncing US citizenship sufficient to lose US tax residency? If so, under the proposed law all those US taxpayers living here in Argentina (let's call them "expats" for want of a precise term) who had Argentine citizenship and tax residency and so faced double taxation would have an escape...

Recently back from my annual trip to San Martin de Porres (Lima) to visit family, some of whom move back and forth between there and Argentina, own or operate small businesses in each country, take advantage of the rights whatever limited integration Mercosur memberships confers, work budget...

There are 100s of thousands of we expats all over the country. But most of them aren't from North America or Europe, so not all of us see or count them.

44:02 to 46:26 is this exact scene

Not saying it's a requirement of the home country. It's just that depending on the residency category (some require a longer list of more complex documents than others) and how much 'home help' a person can draw on (friends, family members willing and able to do the legwork), in some cases, it...

And in many cases logically impossible: in order to lodge the paperwork for their claim after two continuous years in the country, some will have to leave the country (thus breaking the continuous stay just as it is about to complete) in order to collect the apostilled documents Migraciones...

It looks like tomorrow, the Dirección Nacional de Migraciones, which we have all loved so much, will be relaunched as the Agencia Nacional de Migraciones. https://www.infobae.com/politica/2025/11/24/reforma-en-seguridad-crearan-una-policia-migratoria-para-reforzar-los-controles-en-las-fronteras/...

From what I found (in a simple case of a short marriage, unequal prior wealth, no dependents), both walk away with what they had before the marriage--as long as the less wealthy party can't show they are worse off for having entered the marriage--and the common assets acquired during the...

The general principle I've come across for Argentina is that, provided one party (let's say the poorer party) can't show that they leave the marriage worse off than they would have been had they not married in the first place, the legal system here is more favorable to the other (let's say...

I can’t speak for the US. Where I come from there is not yet a huge number of people who want to leave. They still believe it’s the best country in the world. If they only knew what they don’t know… But it's best to keep quiet about this; people become uncomfortable when you try to explain it.

It's not just reverse culture shock. When you emigrate you change. And grow. Even later in life. And the place you left changes. You become a foreigner there too. You see the massive changes that they don't, because you see them in a big chunk once every year or two, whereas they see them in...

If you meet residency requirements in each country (and can continue to meet each set of criteria while you undergo the respective assessment processes), you would apply separately to each country, and neither would have any way of knowing you are applying elsewhere simultaneously. I have...
