married, moving here, visa and customs regs

12 years ago
Hi I have been living here for 4 months now, just got married (I'm English, she's Brazilian) and looking to live here permanently. Going back to Policia Federal this week, any idea how long they take and for how long they will extend the visa?

Reason I am asking is because I may need to return to the U.K. to get some of my things, nothing I can't carry on an aeroplane but I do have an expensive guitar worth £1200 (everything I want to bring will fit in 2 suitcases)and I wonder what the customs regulations are - I seem to remember I had to sign a paper when I visited Brazil before saying I wasn't bringing in anything worth more than $500.
