An accountant (59) in Salta has changed his official gender to female and his name from Sergio to Sergia so he can retire earlier.
He works for the inland revenue service AFIP and tired of working apparently, so he'll get his retiremnt pension next year.
The director of the Civil Registry of Salta, Matías Assennato said: "There is nothing that prevents us from taking this type of procedure."
Regarding whether there was abuse of law due to the legal grey area, he considered that it is very "difficult to prove" and that what is done from the Civil Registry is simply to "ensure" compliance with the Gender Identity Law .
In a way, I take my hat off to the gent.
