For admissions in Brazil, all you need first is an admission. One advise again could be to check for institutions in the North or Northeast. However, you might end up being one of the few Nigerians or foreigners you will find there, but that still isnt a problem. Why is because there are not so much rush for those places.

With that being said, regarding your visa application, you dont need to be bogus about your documents most especially the bank statement. Most often, as a postgraduate, you would get a scholarship so puting a statement of account is just to fulfil all righteousness. I know of someone who got the GCUB and she did not provide a statement of account and she was granted. But then, na different head we get abi?

Also, you can apply for your family at the same time with yourself. I got for my wife at the same time with mine even without a scholarship.

So if you dont have a scholarship, dont bother. I got mine after 2 months of arriving here. So dont panic, everything will work out fine.

Like I have said before, you can do this yourself so no let someone call pawpaw big mango for you o.

Marshlaw:
Thank you.

However , the hold my booking only holds the reservation for 24 hours. Can I use it like that?

Yes.

Marshlaw:
Also, can the visa fee be paid via mobile transfer or bank deposit is necessary?

Yes that was what I did. Just provide the print out and posssibly put the description.

I heard that undergraduate studies are free in Argentina, who has the procedure to apply

Argentina bawo?

Please lets stop jumping on all offers. It could be free but what about well being? Its not just enough to enter plane go another country o. Lets be guided please. Even Brazil sef with scholarship, there are still other sides that are not shared here. Lets tread softly abeg.,Its true that whatever you can think you can achieve at least na person go moon come back, but them no go tell you say some return with apollo abi bone loss. No be every lagoon get fish o, some na anaconda dey inside, so before you dive, use 'microscope' check am.

Student

Well regarding student visa, there is nothing really new that has not been shared on this page and the 'giving birth in brazil page'. However, there is a mistake most people make, which is about certificate authentication. Its either you do so at the Ministry of Education and Foreign affairs or you use any of the designated Notary Publics. But using the notary public is cheaper and easier. Also if you are married and have plans to take your wife or family, its advisable you authenticate your marriage certificate in lieu of you birth cert at the embassy.


The entire process is to upload your documents here https://formulario-mre.serpro.gov.br/sci/pages/web/ui/#/cidadao-nacionalidade

then book an appointment for the VITEM IV at the e-consular page

Then you also book an appointment for the embassy authentication at the e-consular page

Although the embassy gets back to you if your documents are not complete but what I have noticed is, because of the large entries they receive, once documents are incomplete, they move it aside until they have a pool of incomplete entries and then they send them a generic message. This extends the response time regarding visa decision.

what type of visa please

ebenezer880:

Yosfaolu:
just as i sent on my last message , this morning my student visa was approved

congratulations

Guys, please help. I’m trying to apply for language school in Brazil for 1 year. I’m applying from South Africa. What’s the chances of getting my visa approved?

hello please. I am not sure what your chances could be like but you know there are language centres in Nigeria and I think in other countries too. Why not try a postgrad?

ololo12:

I applied for Brazil student visa since January. I was asked to send my passport and documents after 2 weeks. My visa status has been under review for more than a month now. My master's programme started since 10th February and I have tried reaching out to the embassy through emails and calls but no response. I don't know why the delay, please what should I do?

Sorry about this. You can talk to your supervisor on the update. Although there is nothing he or she can do to change the situation though but it speaks well to keep in touch. Regarding the consulate matter too, there is nothing you can do about it other to stay calm and pray. Trust me, pray. If you go there and you are allowed in there is little to no information that you will get. But One hand dey wey fit reach everywhere. Pray.

Hello guys, is it compulsory to authenticate children's birth certificate at the embassy or one should just notarize

Guys dont wait for GCUB. Its getting thicker by the year. The secret is Professors are now recruiting students via past GCUB scholars. That would make it stiffer. Hence I would enjoin you to google up schools okay. Its easy. You dont need to pay anyone to do this.

For instance, USP is recruiting for MSc, Direct PhD and PhD from 1st March to 31st I think. Hurry. So also arre other Universities.


For USP and I think its similar to other schools too, all you need do is send your documents to an email, wait to write an exam but with an interview if applying for a direct PhD and PhD. If you get 7 of 10 then you are in with a CAPES scholarship.

Do the grinding by yourself. Its doable.

Best of God.

finally

priscaebuka21:
Finally my application is now under review

priscaebuka21:
I pray so because I was asked to mail my documents last week and I did via DHL and they have also received it, but my application status is still showing sent instead of under review

also i did not include one of the documents I uploaded online (my birth certificate) i don't know if it will cause me a denial

Just like that? Haba no. If your documents aren't complete, you will surely receive a mail for an update, I believe.

It doesnt have a specified time. Although from comments I think they are now faster in response time now

Hachiman:
Please how many days does it take study visa application to be approved after the submission of physical documents at the embassy ?

Just be patient I guess it will soon be responded to. Those guys that had theirs approved recently submitted since around June and July last year

Toriosas95:
This is my current situation since August.

We have uploaded flight itinery twice. November and January They requested for the minor authorization and consent in January 8 Because it was not initially submitted. We couriered it back immediately. And we are still waiting.

jjbest123:
Can someone living in Brazil apply on behalf of someone in Nigeria to help fasten the process?

I dont think this is possible. my opinion though

Essential01:
Please help.
My wife applied since July, and we only got email to send updated ticket and hotel reservations in November.
How can we cancel the application so we can get the passport back? Its been over 6 months

Just wait for a little while more

wow this is so fast

priscaebuka21:
Please guys i urgently need help

I applied for a Brazil tourist visa a week ago, and I just got an email that my application has been reviewed but then am expected to update my application, with these documents

Introduction letter Flight booking, hotel reservation, or invitation letter

note i already uploaded my hotel reservation before, but what I don't get now is

the introduction letter is it a self-introduction letter or a company introduction letter(note: I am sponsoring myself)
and for the flight reservation, do you have any idea of the website I can use to reserve the flight

please i need urgent response

thank you

Lyoncrescent:
Good Afternoon All, I have done the online visa form and also uploaded and submitted in the Lagos side too. How long after both submissions does it take the embassy to send a mail to submit via courier ? Thank you

In terms of when, its not specific in recent times. Before before before before and before the time before before, it was usually 5 days. Later it came to one week then two weeks and then later to when the angel stirs the water.

Lyoncrescent:
Good Afternoon, Please do you know or does anyone know if you have to make payment and upload the proof of payment before submitting the online form at https://formulario-mre.serpro.gov.br/sci/pages/web/ui/#/requerimento or you only make payment and upload the proof of payment on the Lagos consular section https://ec-lagos.itamaraty.gov.br/process?id=678e5a4a0841e800147706ee ? Thank you

its actually required on the Lagos consular section however no harm doing it on both. go to others on the dropdown button then give a narration like proof of visa fees payment or so so

Ronke04:
i can't even check the status of my application anymore. keeps saying "request not found". is anyone else experiencing this?

dont panic. I guess they are settling with the ones theyve received earlier

Lyoncrescent:
Good Evening, Please when filling the form is it better to pick submission in person or by courier ? Is there any difference submitting in person and submitting via courier? Thank you.

you need to pick courier. Thats the only accepted means of sending your documents

mobimuc9ja:

Bammybestowed:
Please which notary public does the Brazil consulate in Nigeria approve for the notarization of consent form for children and also the price of notarization.

Price for notarization is 5k. Then take to MOFA for legalization.

Authorization form only needs notarization (1 copy)

kindness111:
Good evening everyone, please those that got approval, did you type your cover letter or handwriting, Please which one is preferable?

Handwritten is preferred according to them I don't know for what reason but any goes

Obinnau:
