Brazilian Spouse

20 years ago
Hi everyone - I have looked on a million websites and have spoken to a thousand people on the phone, so now it's time to try here!

My and my wife were married in March 2003. Since then, we have been living in England waiting for the Home Office to process our application. We're thinking of leaving all that and just jetting off to Brazil and if we come back to the UK, then we'll apply from Brazil instead.

What would I have to do, being a British citizen, to be able to work in Brazil (Rio de Janeiro) legitimately? Would I be able to do this automatically because we are married?

Any help will be very much appreicated!!

Thanks

Matt Fox
