Legal Any risk to constantly overstaying on tourist visa? How many times can you do border runs in Argentina?

[earlyretirement]

interesting fact. trump now locks up overstays if caught and denies reentry. you can self deport and have a chance to come back. if caught you spend at least a month in detention

Many people are self deporting because the US government is paying people to leave. Talked to someone that said they got a few thousand dollars and a free ticket home. Was surprised to hear that. I own a few places in Mexico and it is surprising to see so many Ubers that spoke perfect English. When I asked them how their English is so perfect many said they lived in the USA and just self deported and came back home.

This is my worst nightmare. Having all my things here in my apartment. What can be done? Can an attorney help in that situation?

This is happening in the USA too. I was shocked to learn one of my wife's friend that is very affluent and lives near us and has a son that was born in the USA and has a passport here never got legal here. She was just saying she was a tourist and going back and forth on a tourist visa. I have no reason why someone would do that. Her husband is also from Mexico but has a green card but the wife did not.

They were coming back from a vacation in Italy back to the USA and they refused her and she got deported. Terrible ordeal for the family. This is a family that has a multi-million dollar house, very affluent but she didn't take the time to get legal for whatever reason. They had to move to Mexico. Imagine the shock of the kid that is only 12 years old having to start over in a foreign country.

Just never understand people that live in a country for years and don't take the time to get legal. I own properties in several countries and the first thing I usually do when I buy is get permanent residency in that country. Even if I don't plan to live there full-time. I qualify to get my Mexican passport this year and will probably do it.

Wow that is interesting. How long did she live in the USA?

early retirement you are correct. they give them 1000 to self deport but it has to go through a leagal process. you can’t just leave. you have to be paying attention to whats going on in mexico. its the reason i dont buy and live there. i live in arizona and have spent my youth there. puerata penasco ( rocky point) is still good and cabo. i just don’t trust the cartels spreading out. trump should watch out by taking credit for the take down. claudia sheinbaum needs to take credit. i really like her and usa needs to build her up. she lives there

the problem with rocky point is you have to drive there. they are buildind a deep water port and building an airport port of good size

You like Claudia Sheinbaum? She seems more communist than Kirchner was.
