Well here's my experience: I've never had an issue coming in to/leaving Arge twice.
I have to go to Uruguay soon to renew, but I just got a job today that is going to help sponsor me for a DNI so that should save me some $.
Bit confused how a contract job can get me one, but they really wanted me apparently so they hired me on the spot, who knows, maybe they'll
extend? *fingers crossed*
While I wait though, I'm not going to overstay by a day so the application for my DNI/work visa is smooth. Any ways, about lots of stamps:
I've had two instances where my passport stamps have resulted in interesting looks/comments/stares
I have a good number of stamps in a Canadian Passport (I use my Canadian one for Arge because of the fees/no need for a Bolivian visa/cheap Brasil visa. I'm a male in my early 20's and I always tell them the truth at immigration everywhere I go: I work/worked at a grocery store.)
The Stamps are as follows:
-4 USA, 2 France, 2 UK, 5 Italy, Sweden, 3 Colombia, Russian Visa, Morocco, Monaco, Brasil Visa, 3 Argentina, and Bolivia
(I've been to more places than that, but those are the stamps).
When I flew in to Glasgow during the Olympics last year the woman asked me where I was going. I told her London, she asked why
I was in Glasgow then, I said I wanted to see it/take the train to London then I was off to Europa. She look at me strange, picked up a phone,
then looked through my passport, she hung it up and said "You've been to Europe a couple times before haven't you?" I said yeah, asked if I
did something wrong she said no, just doing my job and that I'm very organized then stamped it and said bye.
Second time I was crossing the border at Niagara Falls into the USA. Guy asked where I was going, I said Moscow, he looked at me and said Moscow as in Moscow Russia? I said yup! Delta a deal for $450 roundtrip JFK-SVO and I wanted to go since I was a kid. Asked me if I spoke Russian, I said no, if I knew anyone, I said no, he asked where I worked, I said grocery store, he looked through my passport and said "for work?" I said no, I love to travel, and he looked at my stamps and said "I can tell". Wished me luck and I was on my way thankfully.
Then going in to Bolivia the migrations guys up in La Quiaca/Villazón were playing Space Invaders on their computer lol, then they asked me if I spoke Spanish, said no (I was with friends) asked if me and my best friend we're related I said no, and then said while looking at my visas/stamps that I'm apparently an interesting guy.
At least someone thinks so lol
