What is the rule on declaring overseas income at the SII (rental properties) for visa holders in Chile?

I have a related question. I have a temp visa for professionals and I have had it for 10 month and I want to apply fo permanent residency. However, in my last job I had a clause in my contract saying I would pay my AFP cotizaciones to my fund in my home country but neither I nor my employer ever di...

AFP has nothing to do with immigration status.

Extranjería requires you to submit your cotizaciones de AFP and Salud if you apply for permanent residency as dependent of employer.

Admin, my understanding is that a change to the immigration laws has been brought up by the government several times over the years, they make a big show of things with the regularization of your status and what not, but then eventually the topic just falls to the wayside. Do you think that is what ...

I was under the impression that if just about any document was not notarized, that it was not considered legal? Jobs, cars, real estate all required a notary at some point along the process. If that is the case you could just leave whenever you wanted. Everyone I know, chilean and foreign have told ...

I now need to renew my carné and hence need the certficado de viajes. 5 years ago, I got this without a long wait, but at the moment at least, it seems basically impossible unless you are prepared to sleep outside on the street, the night before . I turned up this morning and found that I was one o...

I would be curious to know, for those who actually did get their education documents validated, exactly what you had to do, both in your country of origin and Chile. I am from the US, state of Maryland, if that helps any. Here's my situation: The next octavo basico test where I live wouldn't be unt...

The short version, if you change type you have to start over counting your temp residency days. Depending on how far in you are, it might not make a diffrence. For example, work visa subject to contrsct is two years to qualify for perment residency. Perioduc income visa, one year. is it possible to...

First, I would like to thank everyone in advance for any information/advice that they can provide me. So I came to Chile almost two years ago to do postgraduate studies in one of the Universities (I applied for my student visa through extranjeria). After my first year my professor told me that he ha...

Ask very nicely and maybe even try to find someone who is willing to take over the balance of the lease, as that should help ease the landlords financial burdens if they are more concerned about the income. Alternatively, if he's going to be a prick and wants to play hard ball, subtly hint that you...

Huh. Glad I haven't run into any of those (though we did give back the last house we rented privately on the anniversary of the contract, as it happens). My new tenant (assuming the co-signatory signs today) just has to give me 30 days notice and loses the deposit if the lease is <1 year. It's hard...

My understanding is that it will depend on the individual landlord. Two months notice is pretty standard for open ended contracts, so you should expect that. Your guarantee is also at risk. Best bet: ask Really nicely. good luck. I sent a letter with 60 days notice, but they said I would have to pa...
