Hi
Does anyone know the exact procedure for getting a workbook and how long it takes

From what I understand

I got to the appropriate Ministeira de trabalho with

Two photos
CPF - do you need this before you apply? seems like it as the website requests you bring it
Proof of adress - as I just got here I don't have anything in my name yet - can my sister in law who we staying with sign something in front of them , what is required - what are the requirements for this

And then I need originals copies of passport , visa , Protocol with RNE no etc etc

You definitely need a CPF for the workbook. I did this a couple weeks ago and they saw a typo on my mothers name on the cpf and they wouldn't process my workbook until I had that fixed.

I'm not so sure on the proof of address. All of our bills are in my wife's name and we presented that as proof of address for me. It worked. But maybe James can clarify this for you
