    Be careful guys.....

    My partner's sister who's a police officer was robbed two days ago (not sure if at gun point but most likely yes) and they took her car. So much for being civilized. Just saying. :ROFLMAO:

    Sure, I would do that too if I had $7K lying around on my kitchen top :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

    Help! I'm getting married to an Argentine and have my permanent resident interview after marriage. What evidence is needed?

    I'll let you know the minute my status changes. I don't think 'scientific' can be used with Argentina especially when it comes to bureaucracy :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

    @Faith No they couldn't specify the timeframe as to how long it might take. All they said was everything went fine. Luckily, this was the last step.

    Medical Dental implant in CABA

    Wow, that's very cheap. Let us know how it goes. I hope all goes well. Could you find out what brand of implant they're using on you? So far I have been able to find 2 brands that are made in Argentina, Q-Implant and B&W. I have no idea how many local brands are out there in the market or how...

    Medical Dental implant in CABA

    The dentist didn't wear anything. She just ran away to the other room and walked back when it was done 🤣. Luckily, if I did my implant, it'd be with another dentist, an implant specialist let's say. The runaway dentist was just a GP.

    Medical Dental implant in CABA

    The suction holding happened to a couple of my friends but it didn't happen to me personally cuz when I went to the dentist, it was only for a consultation on the problematic root canal. When the dentist put the x-ray camera on my cheek (by the way, back at home dentists never do their own x-ray...

    Medical Dental implant in CABA

    Let me rephrase it. Every dentist will be assisted by an assistant no matter where they work. And I'm neither from the USA nor a first world country. But having to hold my own suction and suction it myself just isn't it. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

    Medical Dental implant in CABA

    Yeah I hope it's getting better here because I might need the implant while living here because it's not a process where you can just fly back home and get it done on one short trip. But from my experience going for a check-up and consultation here in CABA, I felt it was just average. It wasn't...

    Medical Dental implant in CABA

    I think my medical policy pays for some general work but most likely not for the implant itself. I'll need to find out if it pays partially. I have a turno with a dental surgeon to consult the case in Feb (yes, turnos are very hard to schedule nowadays and this was scheduled since Nov) so we...

    Medical Dental implant in CABA

    Has anyone had experience getting dental implants in CABA? I might need one soon and I went to Swiss Medical today for a check-up and asked the dentist how much an implant here might cost. He said that an "implante nacional" should cost around USD500 and it's good. Any thoughts?

    Help! I'm getting married to an Argentine and have my permanent resident interview after marriage. What evidence is needed?

    The relationship is more than years but the marriage is still young, only a few months old :ROFLMAO: @Esposas @Faith @Fingerless Anyway, the interview went well. They interviewed us together and it lasted about 40 minutes. It actually didn't feel so much like an interview at all. Everything...

    Help! I'm getting married to an Argentine and have my permanent resident interview after marriage. What evidence is needed?

    I'm not that nervous because I've been in a relationship with my spouse for more than 10 years. I know and met most of his family members. We traveled together internationally all the time. We shall see. I'll report back how it goes. Fingers crossed!

    Help! I'm getting married to an Argentine and have my permanent resident interview after marriage. What evidence is needed?

    I forgot to mention. When they emailed me to scheduled the interview, they also requested additional documents: acta de matrimonio (already given since the first time we went to migraciones but oh well), DNI of my spouse, certificado de domicilio and Solvencia Económica del grupo familiar...

    Help! I'm getting married to an Argentine and have my permanent resident interview after marriage. What evidence is needed?

    Yup, we paid the expedite fee but this was in CABA. I suppose it's faster in Moreno. Regarding the citizenship process, not sure if you already know this but you can start the process right after you get married like the next day because PR and ciudadania are two separate organizations and you...

    Help! I'm getting married to an Argentine and have my permanent resident interview after marriage. What evidence is needed?

    I think you and I are on the same timeline. I started the PR process in August also and had to go to migraciones twice due to some missing documents. I also had to translate my passport to Spanish :confused: but they didn't need my birth certificate. I suppose different officer, different...

    Wow, who did you bribe ;) I mean to which immigration god did you pray to get your process going so fast? I got married in August and started the PR process right away. Only this week that they have scheduled my interview. It has been 4 months!!!

    Food & Drink Any restaurants in Buenos Aires with Spicy food?

    I've been to only a few Asian restaurants in BA. Palitos in barrio chino for tendered beef noodle soup. (I also went to Lai Lai and Los Majares for the same dish but I think I prefer Palitos). Royal Mansion in barrio chino for dim sum. Nueva Casa Japonesa for ramen etc. I think that's about...
