Direct permanent residency on approval — unusual feature among LatAm pensioner visas (most require a 1-3 year temporal residency first). Lifetime pension USD 1,000/month required (Panamanian Balboa PAB pegged 1:1 to USD). No age requirement despite 'Pensionado' naming — pension source is what matters. Significant discounts (entertainment, travel, medical) for holders.
