Simply put, my wife finally got her tourist visa so we are moving for 6 months to the states and then to Mexico until her immigrant visa gets done. We had not really thought that she would actually get the tourist visa being my wife, but it's an medical emergency so they allowed it.
This leaves me with about 20k pesos and I have no clue what to do with them. What is the best way to get my pesos turned back into usable dollars? Here's some ideas of thought of but I am unsure if there are better.
1. Cueva- fast but in the end I'm probably losing a lot over other ways.
2. Tarjeta naranja. Luckily my wife has a 5k peso limit. I was originally thinking of leaving the 20k with her parents and then just using the card in the states to rebuy all I wanted to and then the rates like 11. I am really confused about this though and if it's even possible. What drawbacks is there to this? Will the govt allow her to do it?
3. Change in bank - will they allow her to since she has an actual tuorist visa, and will 1 week time be enough to? I know Argentina is slow if we have to fill out any type of paperwork.
4. Take to USA - are there any places that actually buy pesos now? I know in the Atlanta airport I sold a few pesos once, but that's while back.
Let me know what y'all think, or advice you can give. We leave in a week and the money is super needed as my mom has cancer and I will be helping her out financially.
