Wow I am so glad I found this video!!!! I am 20 randomly decided to leave the US to Argentina for about 3 months (though I would love to stay longer) with the savings I have. Not only that my family is from Venezuela!! Thank you for the insight I appreciate it a lot. Brings me peace of mind that other people have been on this journey as well, and managed to live there!

So brave, resourceful and impressive! You must be from the US and Venezuela, and your Castellano will be perfect when you start talking really fast, like a Porteña. My wife and kids are Argentine, I went 30 times before the fiancee Visa was approved. I retired, and will be moving to Canning next year, the cost of living is about 40% of costs here. I love the warmth of the people there. Not looking for work there, I just prefer to raise my kids there, socialize with in-laws, live safely in a wooded area, barrio cerrado.

Capital Federal is great, but apartment living is difficult with two rambunctious boys, parties, and loud music! The in-laws have backyards with lime, avocado, mango, and banana trees.

I am not entirely sure how you can extend the visa without asking for a residence, but I was speaking with an american friend yesterday by coincidence, and he mentioned that what he did to extend his stay was that he took a quick trip to Uruguay for the day and came back to stamp his passport for another 3 months! I am not sure how sustainable this is, but you might be able to give it a try?

Hey there Alejandro! So that is indeed a lot of money, and if you divide it for the number of months you're going to be here that's almost 650usd a month. That's definitely a good salary here, many people pay for all of their life expense with even less than that, but it depends on the lifestyle that you have. If you work here then your savings will last longer and they will be enough, but I would suggest monitoring your expenses closely so you know where the money is going, and if you can find a part time job that's also a good idea!

The migration process is really easy! More than a visa you apply for the residency right away. You need your clean criminal records, and some other easy to get documents from the country, and you request the appointment!

@@abrahamtola5441 Yes, you can arrive as a tourist and then apply for a residency. When I arrived as a tourist they didn't ask me for proof of funds, they just asked where I was going to stay and what I was going to do in the country. But even if you come as a tourist you need to have your legalized criminal records from your homecountry in advanced, and then requests the Argentine ones, then you need proof of housing in the country cause that is how they know where to delivery your ID, aaaand I think that's it haha. I'd have to check again cause I don't remember for sure right now.

Ok. That sounds easy. Last question. Is there racism there and are the people friendly. I heard they aren’t very kind to dark skinned people and also where do you apply for the long term visa and id once your in the country ? Immigration? And do you apply for visa extension or residency

@@abrahamtola5441 Hey Abraham! So, I really can't speak about racism for the whole country. Many people don't consider that I am dark skinned, but I am definitely not white, and I personally haven't experienced discrimination for my skin color. But just like anything else I am sure there are some bad apples here and there, I wouldn't say it's the majority tho. And regarding the visa, they don't call it a visa exactly it's the residency, and you have temporary and permanent residency, and they tell you when you apply for it in migration which one you can apply for! The temp one is usually given for 1 or 2 years, and depending on your nationality you can apply for the permanent one when you renew it. It depends!

You make it sound like rent is expensive and it is really hard to get a place to rent but the average rent is around $500 for a one bedroom and many places will let you pay multiple months of rent up front. I guess things were different for you since you only had around 1k for all your expenses.
@sabrinahuyke
@sabrinahuyke 2 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure what your experience is but... Not many people have a salary that's good enough to afford $500 for rent, lol. And requirements to rent an apartment, like an actual long term lease, ARE complicated to get, especially if you're an immigrant who hasn't been in the country long. If you were a foreigner who's coming to rent an airbnb with a remote job from the States that pays upwards from $3k a month, I suppose $500 rent is cheap and airbnb is easy to rent, but that's not the case for many locals or immigrants who actually work for Argentinean companies paid in pesos. But, what do I know? One if the things that I tell everyone who asks if it's worth it to come to Argentina is that they can't let themselves make a decision just because of what other people say because everyone's experience is different. Maybe your experience is different from mine and that's it hahaha.
