I've been in Argentina four-years. I'm married to an Argentine.
The bureaucracy is a joke. Here's my story.

I am sorry to hear about your issues in getting residency, however I fail to understand your story.
For example, have you checked your case status online? Case status?
>> I just submitted the paperwork Thursday (the 17th) What does it says?
Have you been given an explanation of why things are getting delayed?
>>Nothing is "delayed" the paperwork wasn't accepted.
Are you sure is that record from 1997?
>>Yes, of course.
Have you tried talking with someone else at Migraciones?
>>Going back Thursday (the 24th)
Is your wife helping you speaking with the people there Argie-to-Argie?
>>Yes.
Have you considered hiring a lawyer?
>>Yes, and that's a last ditch effort.
I know it is their country, their rules, but making comparison with criminals who were allowed into the country is not going to benefit you.
Took my husband a little over 2 years to get residency, normal times imho. Government employees are known for being not friendly, same happens in the US.
The entire process has gone smoothly and quickly. The problem in my instance is the low-level clerk turning me away (temporarily) because of ONE bad check -- 20 years ago
S**t happens. We had to get a letter notarized by the US embassy stating that the letter T ( my husband's middle name ) meant Thomas.... And that is how it goes: things get complicated where you least expect them. I bet there are not two expats taht had the same experience when getting residency.The entire process has gone smoothly and quickly.
