nice video, decently done except he is repeating the same 'you can do a border run' bad info - and if anyone needs a confidence booster on their Spanish, that YouTube uploader is sooooo bad, ahahha...i hope he's only been in Argentina for a couple weeks, with how bad he can't pronounce anything : P
this has been what i have heard, and so i emailed Migraciones offices in a few provinces and the ones that actually responded (20%) said "
La solicitud de prórroga de turista se puede realizar como máximo 10 días antes del vencimiento del plazo de turista" - 10 days maximum before the end of your tourist visa. does this mean if your visa ends on 31Jan you can do -10 days or 21Jan, or should you count the last day as a day, and 22Jan would be your first possible day? no one knows!
so silly! just let people do it online; the website is already there, and you can get free money with people paying online. if they don't need it, Argentina still gets the money. and no need to staff the offices; you already took fingerprints and photos at the airport!
you guys gotta stop repeating old information, when the entire premise of these threads is that the Immigration enforcement has changed!
but this is the opposite of what
@Bajo_cero2 says, and your information is old like you mentioned, so what does that lawyer say today for his clients? probably not to try border runs, but to apply for residency or risk overstaying.
more that the national Immigrations folks are now using the digital database to flag tourists who are leaving and coming back the same day, and forcing gov't employees to enforce the law using an algorithm or directive.
here's a 2013 post on the old censored forum about a Border Run expat being denied entry:
