Renewing status and tracking the clock
So you have something to show the authority in two years
In Argentina, renewal is not a once-a-year formality but something that the entire path to a passport depends on this. A missed renewal deadline breaks continuity. Leaving at the wrong moment does too. And proving residency with paperwork that should have been collected over the full two years. This package is exactly the work we charge for.
Who it suits. For those who already have residency and are heading into their second year.
What is included
- We renew the residence permit and precaria on time — reminding you in advance, not after the fact
- We run the two-year counter and prove it: we make sure the clock is genuinely ticking — precaria and tourist 90-day stays do not count toward it, and departures reset the clock continuity
- We track your exits and alert you before a trip, not after
- Building your evidence file: lease agreement, utility bills, bank statements, entry stamps
- We prepare the category change to permanent residence when the time comes
- Over six months to two years, we put together a naturalization package
What the package does not include
Paid separately and directly, with no markup from us.
- Government fees: residence outside MERCOSUR — 100 000 pesos · ≈ $67, DNI for residents — 20 000 pesos · ≈ $13; paid directly to the authority and recalculated at the day’s exchange rate
- Reinstating an already broken continuity: if the continuous period has been interrupted, the count starts over — this is not within our control
- Guaranteed number of permitted travel days: Migraciones has no single published practice, so we keep track rather than quote a figure
- Health insurance and its renewal
In May 2025, decree 366/2025 transferred citizenship cases from the courts and handed them Migraciones, and at the same time tightened the residency clock: two years of legal residence in a row. A precaria, under which a person lives while their application is being reviewed eir case — that period is not counted. The tourist 90 days are not counted either. Departures break continuity. We have tracked this counter from day one and we gather evidence in advance: rental agreement, utility bills, bank records, entry stamps o entries and exits — because the decision rests with the authorities reviewing the paperwork, not word by word. Parts of the decree are being challenged in courts, and we work in a way that your stay was provable regardless of the outcome.
In May 2025, decree 366/2025 transferred citizenship cases from the courts to Migraciones, and at the same time tightened the residency clock: two consecutive years of legal residence are required. Precaria, under which a person lives while their case is being reviewed; during this period does not count. Nor do tourist 90-day stays. We track the count from day one and gather evidence in advance, because the authority decides on the basis of documents, not words.
Extensions on time, departure tracking, building your evidence file, preparing the next step.
Prices are in US dollars and are all-inclusive — nothing is added on top. Migraciones and RENAPER government fees are paid separately and directly to the authority: they are modest, denominated in pesos and converted at the day’s exchange rate — we list them as a total and provide receipts. SVOY initial consultation — 100 $, credited in the cost of support. The short initial call is free.
