Where is "Joey of Medellin" when you need him? Gringo expat from US shortly making leap to Colombia new life w/TP-7 visa. Would benefit from local Man or Woman Friday to navigate: obtaining "cedula" (ID) "medical" (i.e. eps insurance), general orientation of Medellin (banking, gym, and later: finding furnished apt.). They know the drill & able to assist for a reasonable fee w/their local know-how & Spanish. Gracias!

From what my visa attorney has told me, getting the cedula is something you can do by yourself (assuming you know a little Spanish). It's basically going to the cedula office, telling them you need a cedula; going "next door" to the bank they work with; paying the fee and returning with the receipt; "thank you very much" Obviously not that simple but close. I speak fairly decent Spanish, and would not even think about doing the rest of your list without someone who's been there.

Migracion takes Visas for visas now, and MasterCard too. No trip to the bank needed no more.

Last Time I went (it was in Manizales abot 2 weeks ago) they made me fill out the online form first, which was a pain, and seemed irrelevant, since the guy asked me all the same questions over.

Most important thing by far in considering Colombia is to give serious consideration to possible tax consequences if you chose to stay more than 183 days in a year.
The first and most important thing by far you should be looking it if you plan to spend more than 183 days a year in Colombia is your potential future tax liabilities.
