So here we go.
Overstayed Tourist visa. First entry was august 2016, left brazil October 2016 for Chile and Bolvia second entry was febuary 2017 from Bolivia. Left Brazil again to see sick family July 2018.
Whilst i am here in the UK I am renewing my passport and getting some documentations for a potential stable union or marriage.
I have recieved my fine from the Brazillian feds as expected. I have the funds to pay upon my return, This is not a problem.
MY QUESTION/CONCERN/ANXIETY.
I hope to return september/october once my documentations are sorted out.
When I return will i be given just a 25 day visa (as i have heard and read in some cases)... or will i go back to a normal tourist visa like i did in august 2016? In other words would I have a clean slate once my fines paid? So to speak...
If i did gain the tourist visa again, could i extend it for another three months too?
This tourist visa may be the best option for me as it would mean i would not have to go through the beaurocratic ball ache of stable unions and marriage.
My and my girlfriend (who is brazillian) hope to spend sometime in brazil together until we go to europe early next year.
I guess I am much like many of you who have fallen in love with Brazil. So if anyone could share their experience or any information that would bring some clarity to the murky situation I would massively apprieciate it and send you an air five.
Perhaps we will end up getting married eventually, but for now Im still exploring all avenues.
I will also have a new passport, not sure if that makes any difference however.
Many many thanks.
