Source of Funds and Argentina Citizenship by Investment

Source of funds asks: where does this transfer come from? Source of wealth asks: how did this person come to have the means to make it? A clean bank transfer from an account in the applicant's name answers the first question only partially if the account was funded from a sale or distribution that is not itself documented.

• Corporate records and financial statements for business income
• Sale agreements and closing statements for company or asset sales
• Dividend resolutions and brokerage statements
• Employment contracts and payslips, or professional invoices
• Probate and inheritance documents
• Loan agreements and evidence of repayment
• Tax returns in the country of residence
• Bank statements tracing the transfer

The most frequent difficulties are old transactions without documents, money moved through several entities, family gifts that were never formalised, and differences between declared income and accumulated assets. None of these is necessarily disqualifying, but each needs to be addressed with evidence or an explanation prepared in advance. See source of funds and source of wealth services.
