Visa possiblility for a year in Brazil?

You won`t get a student visa without being enrolled in a university.

Jim

the only way you can do what your trying, is to get your 90 days visa, to get here. then get that visa extended another 90 days, the cost for that is about R$100, i think, then when that's run out, just stay here in brazil, and get the fine,whats R$9 aday but its only for 100 days, and then when you go back home, you can pay the fine before you fly out

I don`t recommend staying illegaly. Some may advise it. I do not. It is no different doing it in Brazil as it is in any other country.  You wouldn`t want illegals in Canada as I wouldn`t want them in USA. Try to get into a University here.

It's a little less than that Pete. I'm too lazy to find my paperwork after it's all been buried under a mound of other paperwork, but I think it was a total of R$826.50 for me.

No need. I've got my CIE now. Now I just need to have the writing program I applied to accept me quickly so I can get to work quickly and get paid quickly and have my other client's client pay them so I can get back to work with them quickly so I can make the money I need to get my wife's visa and reschedule our flight to California before my tickets expire and I lose the $2000 I paid for them.

It`s good that you have the CIE and everything is legal now. I don`t have a problem or judge anyone who is in Brazil illegally. i will try my best to advise them how to get legal. However I will not advise anyone to stay ilegally. I just wanted to clear that up.

Jim

I honestly don't know how I feel on the subject Jim. I am almost as rabid, vociferous, adamant (choose your adjective) as many on the alt-right in the US on the subject of illegal aliens in the US. That's mainly because I've seen and experienced the fact that they drive wages down and take jobs that US citizens could (and might) do if the pay was more in line with being able to survive with some left over than is currently how it is there. But I was here illegally for  almost 4 and a half years, although I have never taken a job that a Brazilian citizen could do as well as I was doing.

For me, I think it depends on the situation. Is the person wanting to "get legal"? Or do they just want to sit and do nothing?

Mike

I`m all for helping the person get legal , but as an advisor to this group, i cannot advise someone to be illegal to accomplish something. I have no problem helping someone who is illegal getting what they need to become legal as you did. I1m so happy that you were able to get the help and information you nede to accomplish it.

Jim

I understand Jim.

Hi Laurence!

You can get a Student Visa (3 - 12 months) from aprenda² school with our intensive Portuguese course (16h/week). The school is located in São Paulo (Vila Mariana) and in Rio de Janeiro (Botafogo).

We also have written an article about visa in Brazil and how to get it: http://aprenda2.org/blog/english/how-do … lian-visa/

If you need more information, feel free to ask me!
