There is a chance of loosing permanent residence depending on how cranky she or her lawyer gets. If the CRNM was based on marriage.
Has friend got an attorney?

Thanks for your response, and i agree with james, because before the new laws, when marriage lasted for  more than 4 years, the resident permit granted through marriage becomes Permanent, this means even divorce occured after 4 years of marriage, you will not loose the RNE status in brazil, so my question is that, how is the new laws applicable to this?
