Hello,
My job involves me working aboard a ship doing oil exploration activities usually for periods of 5 weeks aboard followed by five weeks rest. I recently got a 3 year contract to work for a company doing oil exploration in Brazil. As a result they are in the process of getting me work visa.
I would like to know whether I could apply for a permanent visa and if so what would be the procedure?
Also I wouldn't mind going the investor way but there is no guarantee of getting a permanent visa by that route is there?
Thanks in advance.
N. D.
