I read someone calling Brazil a third world country, I think that person lives in the favelas

oluayebenz:
Oga, I'm not doing any comparison here.

But Brazil is a third world country and thats it

Osasu007:
My brother, pls don't even bother arguing with anyone, especially those who don't even know their way to international airport at Lagos. My purpose here is to enlighten those who are coming to Brazil for the purpose of making money. Think again!

oluayebenz:
Nobody is comparing nigeria with brazil, brazil is far developed with good infrastructures but guess what, brazil is still a third world country......

Soccer1920:
Good Morning to you all... Justwise, Giselle, Alert and all gurus here ... I hail you all for the good work you guys are doing here.. Kudo to you.

I was a silent unregistered user not until this morning that I needed to make an enquiry... Funny enough , I followed the instructions on here as at when I applied for my UK Visa in 2019 and Visa was granted. Thanks once again.

My enquiry goes thus: I got my UK Visa in April 2019 and travelled in May for 10 days. Proir embarking on my second trip in September, I applied for a visiting Visa to visit my uncle in Trinidad and Tobago and Visa was also granted so I quickly booked a ticket from Nigeria - London- Trinidad. On getting to Trinidad I applied for a ministers permit and it was granted but during the process of applying for permit my return ticket expired and I had the plan to fly through other means. I am still gainfully employed with the company in Nigeria and was working remotely from Trinidad and my monthly salary drops every month into my First bank account .

Unfortunately, Covid 19 lockdown started here in February 2020 and till today there's still flight restrictions, Infact you cannot travel unless the government approves it.

To cut the story short, I wish to visit Nigeria in May 2021.

1. Can I apply for a UK Transit Visa or renew my Visa here in Trinidad so as to ease my stress of connecting flights ? If yes.

2. Can I use my first bank account where my salary drops for the Visa application here in trinidad? or I can just push some money into my Trinidad account here for the application.

3. Can I apply for 2 years Visa from here.

Hoping to hear from you ... Thanks .

Nwebele:
Do you live in Brazil? Is your submission based on practical evidencial facts or from theoretical research? I would not argue with you. I am just few months in Brazil and open to learning but I got my information from friends and family living here. Infact, a friend runs a salon here and she boasts that she is doing well. I have also seen brazilians patronize her business. I ran accoss another friend of a friend who owns a shop here and he is very okay. I know another who imports toys from US and other places and his shop is always busy. I gave my advice based on what those who live here told me, including an executive in the Nigeria community forum. My assertion is open to verification. Thanks

centuryman:
Thank you very much.

A quick one please. If I'm going with my wife and a 4yr old kid, how many Visa application forms will I fill and submit?

Obrigado.

Nwebele:
Maybe you need to try Morumbi. It's a nice place

Ijeamaka1:
If you looking for a city that balances both Guarulhos and centro maybe you should try itaim bibi or jardin
Visited a friend in itaquera and I liked the area you hardly find blacks there especially Nigerians it’s a white Brazilian dominated area,

Ijeamaka1:
Congrats.

How's life in Itaquera? If you've been to Centro, SP or Centro, Guarulhos, how does Itaquera compare to both places?
My first stop was Guarulhos stayed in an hotel for 3 days then I moved to Indianapolis,moema to stay in an air b n b for 10days with my family before I got an apartment at itaquera, itaquera is a nice and quiet place although it’s not Behind like moema where the nouveau rich stay but it’s safe , centro is like the hustling place

Ijeamaka1:
I finally moved to SP with my family from Nigeria getting accommodation in São Paulo as a tourist is hectic ,your cpf is not enough , but with Gods grace I meet someone that was able to vouch for me after several tries secured a two bedroom apartment at itaquera for 1250 Reis including condominium fee but I had to stay in an air b n b for 2 weeks before I got the apartment

Shakiratemma:
Good day Gurus.
I will be travelling to Barbados in February and it appears that virgin Airline will pass through London Airport (19hrs layover). Do i need a transit visa for UK and is it difficult to get. What do i need to apply if required. Thanks

Ijeamaka1:
Have been a silent reader,and from what I read I decided to apply with my family ,suprisingly it took just 6working days and our visa was approved with no interview ,will be in Brazil �� soon and give everyone updates and pictures of Brazil...so everyone get ready

Nwebele:
Hi everyone,

I had my baby three weeks ago in a private hospital in Brazil.

I got the visa without any interview. My husband actually submitted all our passports. We collected visa within 4 days. I had to go in person to sign for collection. I was already 32 weeks gone.


I have done the birth certificate, the RG and will soon collect the the Brazilian passport.

My challenge is how to apply for resident permit now.

Has anyone applied by themselves or you have to pay agents to do that for you. The language barrier is a big challenge for me.

Those who recently did theirs should kindly guide as I have to leave Brazil before my 90 days expires.

Thanks

TheMan3:
thanks for all the information and congratulations too.

Please may I ask, how much is the health insurance. And how long do they require as validity

adaytee:
@TechSpot,

Please was your friend pregnant before she applied? If yes how many month was she when she applied please? After she was called for interview how many weeks did it take to get the an approved visa?

Thank you

Glowing1:
I wish to apply since i presently have d required fund, but my problem is d application period, n my greatest fear is rejection.. Plus my passport is still virgin

Casserole:
Sir please let us encourage people to do things in a civil manner although I encourage people to take their chances 100% but sum1 having a protruding stomach showing up at the embassy applying for tourist visa is just not right these people know whats up and aren't stupid they myt deny the app and cases like this becomes a problem 4the next person & soils the little reputation that we don't have left. All the best sir

Glowing1:

TadeDetule:

TadeDetule:
Please bro...how much does it cost to live in Sao Paulo monthly.. averagely

Zchuckles:
Hello everyone! I started reading the thread today and it's been amazing. Well done to everyone that has pit in their best to give all the necessary info and congratulations to those who have succeeded. I wanted to try this route for delivery but my delivery came around the corona virus time so traveling was out. Now I've given birth, my baby is 3 months now and I have an 8ywar Olaf and a 6year old. Going through the thread, I didn't see much about schooling, if I choose to school in Brazil, any advice on that? I'm a graduate of Economics but I don't mind taking an undergraduate course. Can my hubby and I work to be able to survive with study visa? If we go with tourist visa and it's illegal to get a job with it, what's the best option to survive there? what kind of businesses can you suggest. I'd appreciate your kind response. thank you

Hi mryoung16. I have seen your question since the first day you posted it. I was hoping someone will answer. Your question seem very simple but actually complex. Before i tell you what i know, i would like to point out that i am not a guru. I am just a simple person who was blessed enough to give birth in Brazil. Let me guid you to find the answer for your self.

Assignment: Simply go to the Brazilian consulate website and see the type of visas or permit they issue. If they issue Permanent residency then it is a yes to your question.

My little knowledge: Unfortunately, Brazilian consulates do not issue permanent residency. Only the Polícia Federal in Brazil can receive, process and issue permanent residency and you need to apply in person in Brazil.

So a simple answer to your question: No, you cannot apply for permanent residency at the Brazilian consulate.

Alternative: that does not mean that if you leave Brazil without applying for it, you are disqualified. I can guide you on what to do here on this platform but let keep that for another post. This is becoming too long already. Cheers

Hello Sonsynas, don't be confused. You are simply reading about a visa that does not exist anymore. “Permanent visas” which used to be obtained at Brazilian consulates Not “permanent Permit” have been stopped in the 2017 immigration reform.

Unfortunately a lot of info out there are in reference to immigration rules before June 2017. Check the date of the article. I’m sure it is in the past. You can get the best current advice from the many members here who have given birth recently. When you read immigration rules about Brazil online, also pay attention to the date of the information.

All the best in your journey.

Cheers
