The Brazilian government has just approved my retirement visa application. However because I already stayed 180 days this year and left and retirement visas must be picked up or processed in Brazil ONLY… I'm being prevented from returning to Brazil for 6 months and must apply for a tourist visa again. Apparently no US consulate will help with retirement visas.
Does anyone know of a possible workaround given i was approved just not issued the Visa in Brazil. Anything at all I can show at customs, consulate, immigration to gain entry any sooner? Thanks!
