Anyone renewed a precaria online lately? Aug 2026

[USAtoBA]

Hi expat friends,

My lawyers tried to renew my precaria online last month, it still says it is under review. So it has been under review for over a month.

They called me today and said I will likely have to go in person to renew it.

Anyone else had experience at this?

It's a bit frustrating because every time I go to immigration, I wait online for 1 to 2 hours, and my process takes 5 minutes.

But I guess if it was easy everyone would be doing it.

Renewed one last month. You're supposed to request the renewal no more than 10 days (maybe 14... don't quite remember right now) before the expiration of the outgoing precaria. Sometimes the online system lets you do it with more time than that in which case the precaria request will sit unprocessed. If your precaria is about to expire your best bet is to go to Migraciones in person as soon as possible and find a friendly face who might be able to move it along.

I am about to renew my 4th precaria whilst waiting on renewing my temp visa (unreal) and every time I requested to renew online (15 days before expiry is when you can do that) it accepts the request and logs the time and date but never once has automatically actually renewed and therefore always required an in person visit to migraciones.
