I'm reading and reading and trying to understand .... There was a recent very helpful thread 'tips for newcomers'. Can anyone help me with an Acronyms 101?
DNI, CDI, CUIL, CUIT, AFIP , ANSES???? And I thought the only language I would have to master was Spanish :)
 
The only 2 I know are DNI - ID card and proof of existence/residence, and AFIP -the tax authorities. Good luck with the others.

Oh..and SOS here means S**t On Sidewalk (beware) ;)
 
CDI = clave de identification (registration numbers with the tax authorities for people who don't have a CUIL/CUIT)
CUIT = reg. number with the tax authorities for employers and CUIL for employees
ANSES = social security
GOOGLE = a new app that makes searching the web easier (teasing :) )

DNI : Documento Nacional de identidad = National identity card

CDI : Clave de identificación = Identity Key

CUIL : Clave única de identificación laboral = job identity key

Cuit :Clave de identificación tributaria = tax identity key

Afip : Administradora nacional de ingresos públicos = National administration on public income ( IRS in US)

Anses : Administracion nacional de la seguridad social = Social security national administration

CDI, Cuil and Cuit are identications given by Afip and has the same purpose. It is the number to pay taxes and they are given according your status. If work in dependant way = Cuil, indendent worker =CUIT, you have not neither of those = CDI.

I guess you need CDI in order to open a bank account.
 
In the past they used these too:
CI= Cedula de Identidad (Police Card)
LE= Libreta de Enrolamiento (Military draft booklet)
LC= Libreta Civica (ID for women)

LRPMQLP : the whore mother that give you birth. Phrase told to a screw after ten times you didn´t achieve to unscrew.

HDP : son of a bitch.

You forgot the "re" prefix in LRMPQLP = the very whore mother... (makes all the difference)
