Hi William! Thanks for the prompt response (as usual). I was certainly more worried about the documents needed and you have explained this very well on your other post so thank you for that. I guess my complication is with the birth certificate. ... Read More

Is My Visa Valid??? by doscaminos
This is the second time this year that I am not 100% sure about the validity of my visa. Can I scan and send it to anyone who understands the Brazilian visa well? Before I left SP this summer I asked immigration if my visa was still valid for ...

It wasn't at a visa office. This was at the exit immigration counter in SP. So yes it was an immigration officer I spoke with but not one from a visa office. I am familiar with the VITUR visa because I've held one before but the current one I ... Read More
