I was surprised to find out how much CAJA would cost (and I won’t know exactly how much until the time comes). For that price, I could take a little vacation every 3 months. I imagine that the high rates are discouraging a lot of would-be residents from applying, and so I’m surprised that they are encouraging the perpetual tourist. But I’m new to this, so what do I know? Thanks for you thoughts and insights.
Unfortunately I probably will be subject to that tax.
I forwarded the link to the article that discusses the Caja rates to one of my sources and I was told that Caja issued new rate guidelines on October 1, 2014 (after the article was written), whereby rentistas and inversionsistas are considered to have $2,500 in monthly income.
My property requirement will probably be easier to document, since I am buying a condominium with a value over $200,000. I was hoping to be able to avoid the bank letter/transfer of funds, but I guess the lower CAJA payment for rentistas would make it worthwhile. Thank you.
Thank you for the information. It seems that I am getting conflicting information from the ARCR and the other service that I was planning to use to obtain residency. I can go the inversionista route, since I am purchasing a home there, but if the CAJA payment is significantly higher I would likely go the rentista route.
