Posts: 34Addition to last CDI related post
Sorry, I did not mention that I haven't a DNI and presently do not qualify to have one, which explains the investigation of employment sans a DNI.

Greetings,
Finally, I easily obtained my CDI (Clave de Indentidad) from AFIP, my own number, which registered successfully on the AFIP website, following my creating a password. Cost: 0.00.
The clerk at AFIP, and the next day: a higher-up official, via phone call, inormed me that with my CDI, I can be employed in Argentina legally. Sure enough other sites relating to Migraciones say or imply otherwise.
One can "inscribirse". I. E.: sign up as an Independent, as well. Seems the best option, at least for me regarding this registration as Indep. Is:
"Independent Eventual", which means one pays, if any, taxes on contracted work (some employers here may prefer that)
Anway, most everybody except AFIP, had never even heard of a CDI, and I have yet to obtain employment.
Glad to learn from others input.
Thanks,
Samten

Posts: 3510Yeah, I figured that. Maybe more for the "Racism in Argentina" thread. Major stereotyping going on here.

Posts: 3510Today I saw a sign at a taxi stand in V. Lopez saying you needed to show a DNI to rent a fucking taxi. Could be they are bluffing, could be they would accept a different ID, but that's what it said. Kind of scary.

Also, the time frames I experienced with the DNI were exactly as you mentioned.

Posts: 751Mongers,
Although I thought this had been cleared up ad nauseum, I'll explain things one more time.
First, a CDI is a taxpayer identification number given only to foreigners for the purpose of buying property (real estate, a car, boat, or securities) A CUIL / CUIT is a taxpayer identification number given to residents / citizens of the country and confers the right to work. A CUIL is a personal taxpayer identification number whereas a CUIT is a corporate taxpayer identification number. A person may be assigned a CUIL by ANSES, located on Cordoba / Carlos Pellegrini upon having obtained residencia precaria / residencia temporario. With this temporary CUIL number, a person may open a bank account, and conduct other financial activities.
After a period of 90 days, at least in my case (this is true in all cases UNLESS you are Paraguayan, Bolivian, or Peruvian; they have to wait an indefinite period to get full residency, a DNI, etc. Because they were granted residencia precaria solely for being from these neighboring countries and do not have a work contract, investor visa, etc. The residencia precaria becomes a renewable 1 year residencia temporario, and at that point one is able to make an appointment to apply for a DNI. After a period of two or three months, you will go to your appointment to apply for the DNI. Assuming they accept your DNI application, there will then be a waiting period of anywhere between 90 and 180 days to actually receive the DNI booklet. Once you receive the DNI, you are supposed to go back to ANSES and get your permanent CUIL assigned (which will essentially be your DNI number, with a 20 in front of it along with an 8 attached to the end)
Interestingly enough, I really did not ever need the DNI, because I had the CUIL assigned, and I was able to get power of attorney based off my passport as my primary document, so as such I was able to conduct all the necessary business transactions. So if you control a business here, go to your lawyer, have power of attorney assigned to you, and you can do every single transaction that one would normally need a DNI for (bank transactions, hiring / firing employees, entering contracts, etc) by just using your passport.
Suerte,
Rock Harders

Greetings,
So now that I have my CDI, I can share that the clerk at AFIP, told me that it entails permission to work, although of course she is not the Migraciones.
Please, can anybody clarify this issue? Also, I believe Rock Harders, wrote that he has a Residencia Precaria, but the Tramite from Migraciones, says it is to be given only when one initiates some petition for permanent residence, so in effect is in lieu of a tourist visa, and I recall I think it was even given to me once as Un Extension. Then one needs to leave the country and start the cycle again.
What gives.
Thanks,
Bodhi

Work visas for US and Canadians (and I think Western Europeans) have to be renewed every year. There doesn't seem to be any way around that.
After three years, however you can get a 'permanent' DNI.
Not sure about other types of visas or other nationalities.

Posts: 34Getting CUIT for non perm resident
Hi,
The Cordob AFIP office, told me by phone, that one cannot obtain a QUIT without going thru Migraciones and having some kind of residency. But if I understood correctly, having a DNI is not mandatory (which I don't for lack of perm residence status) I currently have a certificado de domicilio, and a CDI, the latter about which AFIP said is sufficient to purchase property in Argentina.
Can someone clear this up please?
Thanks,
Bodhi.

2) In addition to advantages (real or imagined) that others have mentioned, if you have residency, you can ship your household goods into the country and pay vastly lower customs fees than you would if you didn't have residency. In fact, you don't pay customs fees; you pay a nominal insurance premium to guarantee that you're not going to sell your stuff here. When your residency becomes permanent, you stop paying the premiums.
