Answer
Hi!  I probably should say that I can not answer your questions but thought I would make some comments.

To be able to work in any any South America country, you  need a work visa and this can be difficult to get, unless a USA company does it for you and you work for them over in Argentina.  As to living there, you better call the embassy and I am sure that would take time.  As to work visa, I had one done in Colombia and it was rough.  Just to get a travel agent one it was difficult and had to do  under the table things to get it.



I am not sure but I think they might have changed the rule recently for entry visa.  Look it up under Argentina requirements in the internet.
