Permanent residence based on an Argentine relative is governed by Article 22 of Law 25.871 and its regulatory decree. This benefit applies to spouses, partners, children, or parents of Argentine citizens, whether by birth or by choice. It also extends to family members of permanent residents, respecting the principle of family reunification.

The regulation recognizes a material and real connection as a fundamental requirement, excluding solely formal relationships or ties damaged by domestic violence. Additionally, the intent to establish permanent residence in Argentina is required.

The process requires documentation proving the relationship and the identity of the granting family member, ensuring legal and effective access to this immigration right.
