Good Inexpensive private maternity hospitals in Sao Paulo? by stevewaugh786
Hi, We are planning a delivery in Sao Paulo soon. Can someone give some info. on some good inexpensive private maternity hospitals in Sao Paulo? Or Any good public maternity hospitals? Thanks in advance
I'm a bit irritated at the people calling this "fraud". This is how the system works and is written into the law (and this has also been discussed multiple times on this forum, including some great info from the late James who said the ... Read More
Changing location
AFAIK residents (with CRNM) already have permission to live anywhere in Brazil. You just need inform the PF since they are responsible for keeping track of foreigners in the country. Read More
Naturaliza莽茫o - Name verification certificate by okieinscbr
Hey all! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I am here as a resident along w/my wife and we recently took our Celpe-Bras tests. Just one of a few things required to apply to naturalize as Brazilian citizens, but probably one of the hardest. We ...
Ah, thank you! This is helpful. Looks like the checklist that the PF sent me was up to date as of to the Portaria of 03 May 2018 (my link was approved above), and the one you linked is newer. So I'm guessing the PF here was using an old one, ... Read More

Thanks for the info! Yeah, the Celpe-Bras was very exhausting. Really hope that's the last time I'll have to take it. Our case is "Naturaliza莽茫o Ordin谩ria". The PF here in Floripa is using a PDF document that I can't find on the PF website, but ... Read More

Which country give Visa easy in Europe?
Residence has nothing to do w/this. Only passports (citizenship) matter in this regard. You have to check each country yourself for your country's requirements (in this case Bangladesh). Again, it doesn't matter if you have Brazilian ... Read More
PERMANENT RESIDENCE APPLICATION Brazil (CRNM) by Samuel Broks
Greetings. I recently applied for permanent residence ( CRNM ) at the Police federal on basis of a Brazilian child. I was given a protocol which as an RNM number and a validity of 180 days,I was told i will be contacted when the original card ...
Ah, this is interesting. Is that also the case w/a CRNM card, or is that sufficient to not need a visa? I imagine Brazil would allow residents to enter w/o a visa, but boarding a plane to Brazil from the US, I'm wondering if airlines would ... Read More
Success opening Bank Account on new protocolo? by okieinscbr
Hi! My wife and I just received our PR / authorization to live in Brazil for an indeterminate amount of time, and our protocolo a couple days ago. The new protocolos don't have any photo on them, it's just a couple slips of paper stapled ...
Well, I went to BB on Tuesday and didn't have any luck. I brought everything they asked for, but the employee seemed confused and found some reasons not to open an account for me. First thing she said was that she didn't understand the kind ... Read More

That's a great thought -- hadn't considered IRS forms, but have 1099 + W-2 ready. Maybe I should print them out just in case. We're both American. I do have an internet bill in my name, hopefully that or the contract would work with BB. ... Read More

Ok, great! Thanks for the advice. I'll try BB on Monday and see if I am able to get one opened. Another pain is getting proof of residence. It seems like only very specific items are accepted, and Ita煤 doesn't even accept a rental ... Read More
