I noticed that no one has responded to your topic here. If you have not received any response on this, then worry not, as I believe my Proof of being single was a sworn and signed statement submitted for the records. You will want to confirm ... Read More

Again, you will need a lawyer, I can only relate my personal experience which will not be the same as your situation. I can answer that you have 180 days total on a tourist VISA. There is a monetary fine for an overstay and not much else. There is ... Read More

Hey I went through this process in Brazil and US. I would strongly recommend a lawyer in the US for US immigration for sure. I tried to get married in Brazil by doing the paperwork with my spouse and it didn't work out; Brazil is wonderfully ... Read More

This news of James' passing comes as a complete shock to me. James was incredible helpful in giving me advice of navigating the beaucracy of Brazil both all over the forums and through individual messages. I am sure that he will be missed along ... Read More

So basically get married in the region where I plan to go to the consulate to avoid a headache. Thanks for the price estimate, a relief to know that it isn't very expensive. Read More

Hi there, I stumbled into this site by chance and found the information about moving furniture extremely useful. i noticed a thread regarding teaching English in Brazil as a private tutor. I am just wondering if you need formal qualifications to ...
You can establish a healthy clientele privately with a website, basic advertising, and visiting larger multinational corporations that do business in Asia. If you have training as a private tutor then you'll know that a custom lesson plan, ... Read More

So what if I overstay my Tourist Visa in Brazil anyway? by James
Ive gotten so many questions from people who have overstayed their Tourist Visa in Brazil or who are contemplating doing so and want to know what the potential consequences are that Ive lost count. So here goes with a description and hopefully it ...
Sorry to pile on here, I am also in this situation. Working on my K-1 VISA right now. The immigration process in the United States makes about as much sense as it does in Brazil. There is a five to ten year travel ban associated with marriage on a ... Read More
5 Most Unreliable Services in Brazil by James
No. 1 - TELEPHONE service (fixed and mobile) is the all-time champion of complaints with PROCON (Brazil's Consumer Protection Agency). In many cities fixed telephones are out of service for many hours as the result of theft of telephone wires ...
I'm not sure any of this is any better or worse than the rest of the world and I am back in the United States from Brazil. Just got to go with the flow and take it easy. Read More

I just left Brazil the other day. Was a pretty easy process, but it took about 10 minutes extra waiting at immigration's check-out while they processed the fine. The people at GRU were very polite and efficient. Read More

I got this one. If you get a work VISA, then you are good to go and can return to Brazil, they are two separate processes. You definitely will want to pay the fine on your tourist VISA overstay just in case anyone who processes your work VISA ... Read More
Are Brazil's Airports ready for the World Cup? by dan001
I've had the opportunity to fly frequently to many airports in Brazil. During Carnival it's chaotic at GIG or SDU. I can imagine the airports being much more chaotic, but I am not sure what the airports are planning to do. I imagine more taxi's ...
