Please how much can I budget monthly for feeding and house rent and other miscellaneous on monthly basis for family of 4. Thanks

It depends on the type of rental. If it's a temporary furnished apartment such as airbnb, it tends to be more expensive budget between USD1k - 1500. Might be lucky to find cheaper.

Unfurnished 2 bedroom apartments in a good area, 1500 reas upwards.

Generally, Food budget depends on what your family eats but here are prices of some things

Divide the reais by 5 to get the equivalent USD amount
$1 = 5 reais

Studio apartments are usually kitnets for students and the price I almost the same with a two bedroom. Apartments in Brazil are generally very small, studio apartments are usually about 30-40 square meters and 2 bedrooms from 48 upwards, the bigger, the more expensive.

1500 reas is about $306 today at R$4.95 to $1

Asides rent, you'll pay condominium fee, water, gas (if charged separately) and electricity.

Try this and select “check visa status”

https://formulario-mre.serpro.gov.br/sci/pages/web/ui/#/servicos-estrangeiros

Is there need for appointment date to submit vivis/visit visa documents for reviews using courier
I have submitted online since January.
My status is saying 'Sit' since then.
Or
Should I package the documents and send to them via courier.
Will they reject it or send it back to me without review.

I have been communicating with them via email on legalisation after sending notarized documents,
They said that I did not need legalisation. But when I ask about submission they keep mute since then.

Did you request an appointment on the econsular website after uploading your documents online?

I didn't request by January when I submitted online but try doing it last week it says strictly by email.
I saw some other date depending on what you want to submit.
Re: Giving Birth In Brazil by TadeDetule: 3:45pm On Mar 05
Still go ahead and use the appointment like that. After you submit for an appointment, the consulate will reach out to you via an email to tell you to proceed.

Good evening house

Please I'm at a cross road

Im in the process of applying for a visit visa for me and my family, I filled one online form, attached documents and submit all our application individually for each member of the family. We printed out the confirmation form, signed and attached passport photo.

We went ahead to create an account on the lagos website, filled the manual form and attached the signed confirmation page with payment receipts. After a day we all got a mail that our application has been reviewed, we signed into lagos website only to find user input needed. We sent a mail to the lagos email on what next to do, we didn't get a reply. So we went ahead to reprint the online confirmation page sign again and also attach passport pic and resubmit with receipt confirmation (I also had to send mail to the lagos email that I made the payment twice the 144k and 50naira after uploading payment receipt because their site could only show one page of pdf)

A day after I got a mail that my visit visa has been cancelled for "visa application form is incomplete". That I should mail the lagos office for information, requirement and procedure for visa application. While the other member for the family only got a mail of being reviewed, after signing into our lagos profile, my visit visa service has been removed while the other members of the family visa service is still there but just showing user input needed with the same bio data page telling us to email lagos office.

Please what should I do next?
Lagos office is not replying mails.
Should I start everything afresh ?

Please I will really appreciate your honest and sincere opinions and advice.

Merge all the receipts together in one page and submit on the receipts section along with passport data page and confirmation page on the econsular platform at the same time send an email attaching all your payment receipt to them. After which you need to wait for response.

Okay boss, thanks I have done that.
Please sir, can my travel date be the problem because I stated that I will like to travel in Sept 2024.

I previously submitted 6month bank statements, now I'm thinking of submitting 3 months
Re: Giving Birth In Brazil by Newboy1102: 10:07am On Mar 07
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?

Please, how many month bank statements should I use 6 months or 3 months and am I to include all original documents or photocopy when using mail or courier means
Re: Giving Birth In Brazil by TadeDetule: 5:26pm On Mar 07
3 months.

You are mailing only the notarized documents. The only originals are your passport and notarized police report

For the benefits of whoever did a scattered payment due to increase in fees, ensure you use either your phone or canva to put the receipts on a single page or else e fit cost you later o
Also note that visa fees is #180k and not #144k

Make a copy and take them to one of the three designated notary publics. Find attached...

App transfer is allowed. All they need is a receipt to confirm your payment

If you're applying for visit visa you don't need to notarize any document, cause I didn't. Just submit authentic documents as requested on that list not fraudulent documents. And yes you can pay through mobil app transfer as long as the bank app has receipt. Ensure you upload all receipts to the online application portal(single) and econsular portal(merge)
