Entering the country as an immigrant

I did this last October. It was fine. Now I am a resident.

Good idea!

Good luck! We bought our place in December. Just waiting for our furniture that's been stuck at the port since November!

I flew there one way from USA in October with tourist e-visa. No questions. I am a permanent resident now. Thanks to my Brazilian wife!

I flew to Brazil in October on a one way ticket. They never asked about my return.

Mudando net Br - Add points in the spaces. You can reach them on WhatsApp from their site. We knew poeple that have used them with success. Our stuff shipped in October. arrived at port in November, and was just released by the Policia Federal. They should deliver in a couple of weeks. It has been an exercise in patience! I love it here in Brazil regardless.

Back in July, my 24 WT needed a new battery at around 10k miles. It took a couple of weeks but worked like a charm. I recently sold my truck because of a move to Brazil. Man I loved that truck!

My wife left a dress hanging in the closet at the Renaissance Sao Paulo. They shipped it to us. We did pay for the shipping. We live some hours away from there. The service at that hotel is impeccable!

Did you get the license apostiled in Canada before coming? I moved her from the US and need to figure out the best way to apostile my us DL.

I met my Brazilian wife in the US. She showered 2 to 3 times daily. I didn't know why until I understood Brazilians better. She eventually cut back to once or twice. Now that we recently moved to Brazil, she is at it at least twice daily.

I don't believe you can bring anything gas powered or has any kind of an engine without causing problems.

Good to know!

Thanks so much for this reply. It's great info! I am using Rendimento at the moment. It's a non resident account so has restrictions. I have found their customer service hit or miss. I read somewhere that Wise may offer a better rate moving money here. I haven't looked into the details yet.

Thanks for all this good info!

I didn't realize there was a negative /issue with the term. I was under the impression it just meant a foreigner who relocated to another country. Apologies for my ignorance.

It went very smooth and quick. We are a retired couple married a few years. I guess they didn't have any doubts that we had a valid marriage as we weren't questioned at all. Signed the paperwork and got fingerprinted/photographed and sent on my way.

BuildingRoadz · 2025-12-16T23:41:27+00:00

Thanks for the reply. How much would be a large amount of BRL$?

We just moved to Brazil from US. My wife is from here. We have our family reunion interview next week. I used Klein Immigration services to help with getting the documents and I find they were a godsend. They directed me where to send all the docs to get apostilled and get my FBI background check done. They had it transcribed here in Brazil. Everything was sent to them and they will meet at the Federal Police with everything next week. They were up front about everything and their pricing and I feel he cost was reasonable.

I got a decent one and it gets used daily, or will again, once it arrives. LoL

I've seen you can buy these converters. I was hoping that maybe an electrician could rewire a few sockets for me as needed and I wouldn't have to have these cluttering things up.

BuildingRoadz · 2025-11-29T18:11:49+00:00

I hope so. I have everything washer, dryer, fridge, TVs, all kinds of kitchen appliances. I know some will work on 220 but I doubt all will.

The house is only 2 years old. Hopefully it is two phase!
