Very good video. More of these. Sad to see them restrict like Europe. I know many people in the EU who want to leave.

We should apply the same rules to Colombian in the u.s

I'm here in Colombia and married.. But i still have to apply for my migrant visa yearly. New documents being required this year... And a week to get them otherwise pay for the visa study again and wait a month to hear a new response. So many annoyances here. I just want to buy a nice cheaper house and raise a family. My Spanish is definitely lacking so I'm worried about applying for residency in the future taking these tests in Spanish. Well anyways thank you for the video with Alan he's a great source of information.

I think Alan mis spoke at 16:35 when he said you could get residency with a Common Law marriage after 5 years, the new rules downgraded the Union de hecho to a 1 year V visa and the V does not offer any path to R. Only the M visa gives you an accumulated time path to the R visa.

I would like to you see do this for Kenya also am planning on moving their

Great to hear directly from an attorney there. I've been researching the new changes. 1 thing I'm curious is under this migrant visa by purchasing property, can an investor open a bank account in Colombia?

Theoretically yes, but it’s extremely hard and generally not worth it. Stick to an account with a brokerage firm. They work well for donestic wires.

Good video and information. Thanks gentlemen. Can the said property bought for getting residency be rented out to generate some return on investment without triggering tax residency? The question is really about taxation on local vs worldwide income

@TheWanderingInvestor

Thanks. Residency does not trigger tax residency. You need to stay there a lot to become a tax resident. Yes, you can rent out the property.

Sorry, no.

If you have been married in the U.S. to a Colombian citizen and have 3 children who are Colombian citizens. If it best to get Colombian residency through the children or spouse? Also, did you say that you have come to Colombia every 6 months for 2 or 3 years to obtain citizenship?

Damn it's getting harder every year

Under the new real estate option, what happens if you don't come back for 7+ months? Do you have to buy a new home to renew the visa or can you reapply and start again?

Colombia use to have a beautiful investment visa if your brought a property you got a five year visa then after five years you get residency it was beautiful. President Petro ruined that visa because he dislikes foreigners

Nomad visa is not worth it imho

Am I missing something? You've said that you can both hold a Migrant visa AND avoid tax residency in Colombia, but you've also said that to hold and maintain the Migrant visa you have to reside in Colombia for more than six months every year? Doesn't that mean that tax residency IS mandatory if you want to keep your M visa? thanks

That’s not what was said “you cannot leave for more than 6 months at a time”. Technically you can simply come back every 6 months. Speak to a local CPA for tax advise.

How easy is the marriage visa I'm about to get married and hope in two years I will have residency. I'm wondering if after a few years if I get divorced will I lose my residency or is residency forever

This "migrant visa" seems much inferior and just not worth it.
