@rocade Thanks for all the info!I noticed it doesn't state anywhere (that I saw) on the official resolution if the documents uploaded need to be officially translated and certified. But I noticed that is how Kate did it.I'm tempted to send all my ... Read More

Ah, I see that the third part of the renewal process (titled Imigrante, at the top of the page) is for uploading all the documents that Kate previously mentioned. This means that the few items as listed in the official resolution are incorrect. ... Read More

@leashy_kate Also, at the document upload stage of the renewal process, the first item is an "Application for Residence Permit" (formul谩rio de Requerimento de Autoriza莽茫o de Resid锚ncia, conforme Anexo I, assinado pelo ... Read More

@leashy_kate Hi Kate, Since the official resolution just states 3-4 documents required for renewal, did you try that first? How did you know you had to submit so many extra documents?I'm starting my renewal now (online, in Brazil) and I'm not sure ... Read More

@zofiaaa super helpful! Thank you, you just made my day betterI actually just booked my flight back to BR since I've been out of the country for a few weeks, and I randomly gave myself 60 days to deal with the renewal. Read More

@abthree what if I requested the visa extension from another state? I'm wondering if that would work just the same. I live in Rio (though currently out of country for a month or two) and may find myself in the Northeast upon return later in August. ... Read More

Following this thread. I'm in the same situation as Mrxx. Will be coming up on one year in the Autumn and wanted to know what is required. Abthree, as always, coming through with the answer! @Abthree, did I read that correctly? All that's required ... Read More
Student visa questions by acpr

@nico peligro sorry for the late reply. I forgot to log back into the site. Well, that doesn't bode well for me if they've changed rules and leniency. I'm also not working at the moment but I have some savings (not sure how much would be needed to ... Read More

Can one extend their tourist visa (ie, from 30 to 60 days)?
Most sites about extensions refer to extending past 180 days, but I'm concerned about if I can extend beyond what an immigration officer might give me - ex. 30 days according to my proof of accomodations, despite me wanting to stay 2-6 months total. ... Read More
Digital Nomad Visa Migrante Web by Cakinator
I wanted to start a new thread/post on this as the first one Abthree posted kind of got inundated with conversations about Overstaying. But is [url=/forum/viewtopic.php?id=973331]here[/url]for reference My question is has ...
@marcotenore afaik, the background check can be a state check. It should state this on the consulate page for your region. You do have to apply via that consulate (or from within Brazil if you're here on a tourist visa). I had been living in Puerto ... Read More
Ways for temporary residence to lead to permanent? by acpr
I'm currently on the DN visa here in Brazil and I've been thinking about what I'll do once the year (plus year extension) is over. A few sites state the following:The Digital Nomad Visa is not a path to acquiring permanent residency later.Although I ...
Correction: I may have misunderstood the rules. Ultimately, I am looking into paths to citizenship, and hoping my temporary residency helps me get there. Upon looking into it a bit, it seems citizenship requires 4 years of permanent residency. I had ... Read More

Where do I pick up my RNE? by acpr
I'm here on a temporary 1-yr residency visa and I went to the PF in Rio in January to get my photo taken and fingerprints done, as well as hand over all the paperwork. They rushed me out at the end and just told me to wait for an email. I never got ...
Thanks everyone. Since I don't live far from the PF, I went there and they had it ready for me. I was asked if I checked my spam folder to which I responded yes, and the lady just shrugged. Read More

@abthree thxI didn't receive an email so there's no link to click but I managed to go to Migra脙搂脙拢o, where I eventually found a link to check the progress (in case anyone else is in my situation). Unfortunately the only update was Jan 30th, saying ... Read More

Is Federal Police registration so close to expiration date a problem? by acpr
I'm here in Brazil with a residency visa and they give 90 days to register with the Federal Police, so that one can get their RNE, etc. I didn't register because I was waiting to find an apt to rent and I found it after 60 days, but then it was Xmas ...
It looks like someone asked the same, or similar question last year. And from what I can gather online, there would just be a late registration fee, likely similar to overstaying one's visa (ie, 100 reais per day). ... Read More

Registering with the PF w/o a local address by acpr
Might anyone know how to register with the Federal Police without a local address where I live? It seems nonsensical to be required to have a local address when you've just arrived and don't have the required documents to get a local address, yet ...
Thank you all for your replies! Due to end of year festivities and Carnival coming, I haven't succeeded in getting a sole Airbnb (at an accessible rate) to serve as my only address for multiple months, meaning I've been changing Airbnbs each month ... Read More
