It exists the same but I haven't come across any with a fee structure that would rival a US discount broker. Plus the yearly wealth tax can wipe out any gains. I would worry about potential gains in pesos. Imagine a stock, bond, or fund, losing half its value in dollars then when...

I don't think they need to balance anything. Just use the CCL with a profit spread. So it doesn't matter inflows or outflows. They can just buy or sell as needed since they have a small profit built in that more than covers the temporary rate drops or increases.

Oh interesting but 75% at oficial and only 25% at CCL still seems pretty bad. They would be losing half on the exchange rate plus the tax. I think there must be some benefit they aren't talking about. Like being able to buy equipment or imports at the oficial rate. Maybe farmland except...

In addition to the taxes aren't they selling for dollars and receiving pesos at the official? Or is there some kind of dolar soja.

Not really hand tools but the Stihl products are very competitively priced here. I guess Bahco is one of the best if you need to get new hand tools locally. I wish there was a Harbor Freight equivalent store.

I believe they signed the agreement last December and are sharing it right now. I don't know the extent of the information shared. I think prior to this they had to request individually but now they automatically share. I wish I had the details or could find them. Do they each give a list...

I believe if you obtain citizenship and then move away for a full year declaring yourself a non-resident for income and wealth taxes you can return for half the year and only pay on your Argentine assets. So moving back in forth with the seasons could have a significant tax advantage if you...

I keep some junk silver as a hobby/prepper thing. The durability and ability to transact in low denominations have a certain appeal.

That is just the limit before you are required to declare it. You can bring in more. Unless something has changed recently.

The current rates favor cash at the moment.

Wouldn't it be easier to just pay the fee for overstaying?

Fair is fair. I'm sure corporations would be happy to pay in their fair share to be able to collect when they reach full retirement age at 67. The oldest US one still in existence today is only 409 years young.

It is earned in the country you are physically present in when earned. So it is taxable as worldwide income but could be excluded from income tax due to being foreign earned. For self-employment taxes it is only excludable if you participate in the country you live in social security system...

Probably easiest to pay it as long as it is affordable and you can manage it for the next 16 1/2 years. Accept that there will be a significant overpayment. She is going to bank the rest of her life on those excess payments so if she is only spending half of what you pay her it is probably...

Sounds like he will more than cover the wear and tear costs for both directions along with the fuel and travel on the way back. If someone really wanted to make the reverse trip anytime after early February it sounds like it could extremely beneficial.

I might have my speculating wrong because the US may never cede the primary right of taxation to Argentina. From an IRS standpoint, I thought unearned income is primary to the country derived but earned primary rights went to where you physically earn it rather than country derived. So even a...

Doesn't the border restriction take lending a private vehicle off the table? At least with an Argentine plated vehicle.

The tax information exchange treaty would apply to requesting foreign information. Using Western Union to send money to Argentina and/or receiving it would be a domestic issue. I think they are provided that information by Western Union unless there are privacy laws protecting it. Most of...

They are going to grab them off the street or home, process them, and put them on a plane home? Couldn't they just waif for that day which will never come and apply for citizenship to stop the deportation.

That might be the flaw. I'll try sending 1 euro through and see what happens. Maybe rejects upon the actual submission.
