Omho na wa o. Asylum in Brazil. The black race has failed lol. Brazil wey never care for thier own people finish

Bro abeg no vex are you in Brazil?

If you are not, please take the words back and swallow it.

Nigerians are not as much as Vietnames nor Venezuelas. Anyone that has a geniune visa will still be allowed to fly and enter the country. I just don't understand why people are seeking asylum because Brazil provided many legal means of getting residency visas. I wish people can start doing things in the right way.

tensazangetsu20:
A whole lot of Nigerians are claiming asylum in Brazil. Even to come to Chile transiting through Brazil is very hard now. They won't let you pass. They can even send you back if care isn't taken.

Airlines won't really believe the visa is genuine. EMIRATES showed me shege when flying. They took my passport multiple times and different location just to verify my visa after I dragged them for refusing to fly me because I had a tourist visa.
The reason for asylum is that people don't want their visa to expire before being in the system. Most start with asylum then move to give birth or marry.

Brazil is a very good country I live in Chile but with regards to social benefits Brazil has more. However, Brazil isnt as rich as like the US or Germany that will be paying asylum workers stipends for not doing anything so I dont see the point.

Yes, you can be dragged but so far the airline is flying the route, you will still be flown. Look at Turkish airline, you can't fly them directly from Nigeria to Brazil anymore.

Hello,

I am interested, please share details, thank you.

For clarity, when the lady leaves, are the 2 rooms going to be unoccupied?

untamedd:

Thank you for sharing.

The same problem many of us are passing through. Lagos embassy are something else recently. You’ll submit application, the next thing is to be abandoned. So unfair.

They are still more effective than most African Embassies. Patience is the key.

lol it's not a new thing... If you have a valid visa and knows content of your visa then you have no problem with entry

Hi, please can you list the current requirements for tourist visa? Thanks

Newboy1102:
Please, I just got this mail from lagos consulate which made me more confused.

They didn't include travel insurance.
So my proposed travel date should be between 60-90 days of application?
Please the proof of address, what should I upload?

Please should I upload some in pdf or convert all to GIF image?

Hi did you uploaded on GIF or pdf?

There are many apps that does the job.
You can use canva, img2go, and some of these online converter.

Please, I need a candid advice and suggestion on which country is best to birth a child..., I have been digging up and trying to make a choice among this three...,Chile, Mexico and Brazil..., which is more preferred...

I need suggestions and advice from experienced persons with insight. Please kindly give valid reason why your choice is preferred along with its Visa Processing Success rate.

Streamline how one can easily process its Visa without using an agent.

I will appreciate valid information.

Thanks!

Most of what you're asking here, you can do on your own by some indepth research (visa processing+success rate); decisions such as these should be made solely by you. Here's some help still.

All three countries follow jus soli (ie, giving the baby citizenship when born on their soil), but they have a few differences between them (this is from personal research please. You can do some more on your own):

For Chile, you have to be a resident there FIRST (trp or PR) for your child to enjoy the jus soli benefit. NOT TOURIST VISA, whereas for the other two countries, one can use just a tourist or visit visa. Now, this doesn't mean your baby can't be a citizen of Chile, it just means it won't be automatic (for both Brazil and Mexico, it's automatic, doesn't matter how the parent entered the country)

Chile has arguably the best healthcare in South America (top notch!). It's affordable but not totally free...I understand it's not free in Mexico either but totally free in Brazil.

As you should know, Chile and Mexico speak Spanish while Brazil speaks Portuguese; in case one has to learn, Spanish is easier (no question 🤣). So there's more of a language barrier in Brazil than the other two places.

As for citizenship for family, Brazil and Mexico give PR as soon as baby is born and you apply (you use your baby as an anchor) - then get citizenship after some time of fulfilling requirements (a year or two) and applying.
Chile is almost the same...but if you're on trp, you'll get PR then apply for citizenship but time duration is almost same.

Chile's passport is the strongest amongst the three...they have mostly the same visa-free and visa-on-arrival countries, with Mexico having that TN arrangement thing with the US but Chile's passport has e-visa to both US and Canada (100% guaranteed entry).

I'm assuming you're applying from Nigeria...you can do so for Mexico and Brazil but for Chile, you have to go to Ghana or find a registered travel agency here to do it for you (I never advise this sha).

...so, I think I've covered most of it🙂 since you're thinking South America, you should check out Argentina as well - it has the fastest citizenship route in the world. After birth, no need for PR, apply for citizenship straight...but of course, you consider other factors as well. Other South American countries aren't bad either.

If I were to choose, Chile is the best no doubt. But you have to consider many other things to make that choice. That you're considering giving your family this gift (dual citizenship) is the best🙂 but anything worth doing, is worth doing well. Make proper research, follow people's stories in all these countries, reach out to them if possible then decide. Wish you the very best!!!

Good day everyone.
I want to ask if anyone is aware of the happening in the Brazil consulate, I have been under review for at least 2 months. And if anyone has gotten their visa of recent, can you kindly share the current wait time. Thank you

Thank you for this helpful information

It was showing sent for 2-3 weeks or so, then started showing under review. I didn't expect this thing to take time. If you don't want people in your country, just deny them entry please than keep their passport.

Biggestbirds08:
Good my bro please did your status from under review still the same now because mine still showing sent since 6 weeks now

This is so detailed and apt, well done. I want to point out that in reality, Chilean citizenship/Passport procedure is very difficult and takes a very long time for the parents due to bureaucracy. It seems deliberate since their passport is very strong and I guess they don't want everyone to have easy access to it.

I also did a little comparison between São Paulo and Santiago earlier this year, cost of living and accommodation is higher in Santiago, and integration is much more difficult over there especially if you're a person of color.

I visited Chile for a few days, it's a very beautiful country and the people are nice but not as much as Brazilians.

Please do you know the visa processing duration for Argentina and can someone apply from Nigeria.

It's so nice to hear from you after all this time☺️ how're you and life?
Thank you for that important addition; a lot of us don't understand that no matter what is written, even on government websites, ultimately it's up to them in that office in that country. It could be that the officer attending to you just didn't wake up on the right side of the bed that morning🤣

Plus...this contribution has actually helped me make up my mind even - I was so torn between Chile and Brazil. Obrigada 👍 (I don dey learn sef😁)

D14luv2007:

I don't know about processing time, but there's an embassy at Asokoro (Abuja) that offers their consular services: http://enige.cancilleria.gov.ar that's their website.

Giving birth in Chile only covers the child provided the parents have residency. Even having a Chilean child or spouse doesn't guarantee permanent residency. That economic stability is the most important key in getting permanent residency. A high paying job or a highly profitable business in Chile. The government doesn't care but that's it. There are people with Chilean wives or husbands who can't get permanent residency because they don't have a good job so they need to renew their residency every 2 years. Once you can acquire permanent residency, citizenship is straightforward

Thank you for this.
It's an open space, so can't say too much...but I was hoping for the Chilean passport for my child, that's my main concern. If there's enough time for me to get one as well, still good. But I won't be actively working towards that anymore, for myself.

I also sent you a private message, have you seen it?
