With a scholarship, you don't need much.

2.5M-3M is sufficient.

You don't need proof of funds

Dadzynomolara:
How much can one budget for everything if one should get the GCUB?

The idiomatic expression "To call-in sick ", Is not only used in relation to health issues, it is just a way of pre-informing your place of work that you will be absent from work on a particular day.

saphiere:
We don hear na

Ur colleagues were saying you wey sick reason you didn't appear on the show. U said u went for book launch. Who we go believe?

By mixing up tourist and study visas situation while ing information and you feel you are beyond correction? No one knows it all

TadeDetule:


Lets be guided in our responses, okay. I was not referring to anyone here. I know what I am saying hence let 'us; be guided in our responses.

The 2 people that were denied visa applied for tourist visa, not study Visa. Let us put this in proper perspective

TadeDetule:
Guys, my simple truth is this, they seems to be suspecting birth tourism now for every VIVIS applicant. Hence, for tourism, you must be able to prove otherwise. I mean a vivid one. Also ensure that your ission is ed with a scholarship. I think its no longer enough to convince the consulate if you dont have a scholarship, except you show self or sibling/parent POF that is reasonable. Just thinking out loud.

So sorry about your Visa denial.
I will advise you consider study Visa if you really have interest in Brazil. It is easier and surer.

Marshlaw:
UPDATE

Unfortunately, my application was not approved despite submitting valid and genuine information. Not sure what went wrong.

GCUB 4th edition is officially out today. Start applying.

Hint: go through the list for the last 2 editions, look at schools that gave scholarships to people that applied to same program as your, use that to select your 5 schools. Unicamp and University of são Paulo are highly competitive, look for other good universities you will stand better chances.

Hopefully, within this June.

Focus more on applying to schools direct, GCUB took less than 40 Nigerians last year, but more people got ission and scholarship through application to schools direct.

Dadzynomolara:
When is the next GCUB 2025 coming up?

You are still at the realm of consideration.
Anyway, make hay while the sun shines.

Brazil is a nice and chilled country, I have been enjoying my stay here since I arrived. Their educational standard is very high.

Glocal1:
Congratulations.
I might look into this Brazil PG studies as Nigeria is getting worse.
3 of my course mates went to Brazil since 2014 and 2 did post-doc in the US.

Check out like 30 schools, look out for the selection notice page to see the current open applications.

Nursebby:
Good afternoon everyone
Please any links to school I can apply for ission
And also guidelines on how to apply most of this universities like usp I’ve been looking for how to apply but haven’t seen
Also how do I for the Portuguese class ?

What letter of recommendation?

vic4real22:

Pls sir, this letter of recommendation, are will using it during registration or we only need it during visa process.

Even their JW.org website found it difficult to even explain their scriptural backing of no blood transfusion.

What the Bible said was mainly consumption of animal blood as food, some people cook animal food( blood meal) and eat it as food.
The Bible talked about "eat", it never said anything related to health or transfusion when sick.
I wonder how supposedly enlighten people can hold on to such pronouncement made by a group of white men out of their own understanding or life preferences.

The same scripture also talked about avoiding eating strangled animal and sexual immorality, but they will ignore those ones and obey only those they instructed them to follow religiously.

You and your wife should go for medical examination. It is abnormal to put sperm in an ovulating woman without family planning for 2 months and not get her pregnant. Infection is a potential cause.

NybenSBF101:
I am imagining doggy style inside the bathroom. . You need privacy, save up and move to another house.

For those 'you never tire gang', touching his wife doesn't mean she will get pregnant.

I have two kids and I don't use since we got married for over 5 years

There are current open selection notice(ission) in these two courses at Federal University of Uberlândia.

So many questions all at once. I saw Ur PM, I will respond to that

emydnobl:


Congratulations to you. More Grace

The timeline never exceed 30 days. Hope you got your F and documents legalized at the same time?
What's the proof of funds limit?
Any physical presence or interview session at the Consular?

Also, on flight reservations and accommodations which website do you use?

At what cost for reservations?

Submit coloured photocopies of your documents.

The only original stuff you will submit are your international port and statement.

However, the embassy will still return all your submitted documents( coloured photocopies) along side your port with the visa back to you.

deboskie:
Good Day All.
Are we to send Original copies of documents to the Brazilian Consular office or photocopies are fine as Hard Copies? I mean documents like birth certificate, marriage certificate, CAC and the likes.

It is stated in the embassy site that yellow card is not required.

TAAG

joburoh:
Hello Everyone, Would one need a Yellow fever Card when travelling from Nigeria to Brazil?
Also which airline would one suggest to go with?

Thank you

If it is tourist visa, I can't respond to it, but if it is student visa, then you need to put a information of someone in your school or your supervisor .

Marshlaw:
Hello everyone. Please, should the name and phone number in the protocol form be left empty or filled?

Cc SugarPg, erico2k2, TadeDetule, untamed, dvs51, peppo4live

You don't book for appointment, after submitting your documents online, it is the embassy that will give you go ahead to send your hardcopy documents via courier, no in-person delivery.

The message will be sent on your application page.

deboskie:
Hello everyone! Please does anyone know if Brazilian Consular said Hard copies of documents should be sent only by courier service and not in person. I mean if someone can't book for appointment date for submission again except to send the documents through courier service. Thank you all in advance for your responses.

Celprebras is required for undergraduate ission, it is not required for Msc/PhD studies.

Lotusflowerbomb:

Congratulations, Did you write Celprebas before applying for ission? Or you can apply for ission without it?

I will advise you target study Visa, it is 90+% your visa will be approved and in less than a month, but tourist visa takes long and with high rate of visa denial.

Griot77:
Good day everyone, please I will implore someone in the house who have gotten their tourist visa either as a single or married couple with kids to create a short guide, it could be in PDF or plain text that will be posted on this thread and can be referenced for a long time. This will be a game changer, because honestly I don't understand these Brazilian embassy anymore and how they turn down your application and yet provide no reason, despite taking time to carefully package your application with the right and authentic documents.
Particularly, I will really appreciate a practical step-by-step guide on how to apply as a family of 4, POF required and documents.

Thank you in advance

Only 3 of them are first class kings in your list

Oba of Benin

Ooni of Ife

Sultan of Sokoto

The rest are second class kings and only have influence within a small domain.

Not GCUB, direct school application with scholarship.

Take time to go through the thread, all inform you need as regards ission and application to schools are here.

Danielbobosky:


Which school and is it GCUB? Kindly walk us through the process it took for you to get it if you don't mind

When a woman is going through mental stress due to a lot of burden on her shoulders( taking care of the home, contributing heavily financially to the home, working extra hours to raise more money) she tends to relegate sex off her mind.

There are certain age range women get to(though not all women) say 35-40, some get to switch off as regards sex, they might have sex with you to just to please you, but you will realize there are no emotions to it.

My advise, just be patient with her and show understanding.

It is their usual attitude, they barely acknowledge receipt of email.
When you follow up they will still ignore you.

After they requested additional documents from me which I sent immediately, I sent 4 email asking for update for 3 weeks but they ignored me.

The morning I wrote one last email with the subject begging them to respond to mail, an hour later they responded that everything was fine.

4hrs later, my Visa got approved.

alemeru032:
I have a quick question for those who have gone through this stage:

The first time the embassy requested documents via email, they sent a read receipt and acknowledged that they had received them. About a week later, they asked for additional documents, which I submitted later that same day. However, this time, I didn’t receive any confirmation or acknowledgment that the documents were received.

After waiting another week, I followed up via email to confirm if they had received the documents. Their response was that I should send the documents through this email (which I had already used). I re-sent the documents as instructed and followed up again to confirm receipt, but I still haven't received any response.

I’m wondering—does this align with their usual process? I also had to resize the documents to around 1.5MB, and I used a private domain email address. Could that be a factor?

My study Visa got Approved today

Separate visa application form and visa fees

deboskie:
Hello everyone,

Please I want to apply for Brazil Tourist Visa for me and my wife. Do I need to fill separate online visa application form for each of us? or how do I link the applications to show we are going together as couple because I will be the one financing the entire trip.

kindly assist with your responses.

Marshlaw:


Thanks for your response.

There is no second page. It's just a single page

Is the attached manual Visa application form not a 2 paged documents? Can't you see the space for signature under?
I wonder where you got your own 1 page document from without signature.

Anyway, you can go ahead and do as you wish.

You don't need to fill that protocol number and visa type,, just leave it.

You need to print out this form, fill it in capital letter, on the second page you will see where to sign.

Marshlaw:
*Please should the highlighted section be filled? I don't know any protocol number.

**Also, they said the form has to be signed but there is no space for signature. Any idea?

*** Is the self-introduction letter(as required by the Brazilian consulate) the same as cover letter?

Kindly respond, I would appreciate everyone's input and suggestions. Thank you


Cc SugarPg, erico2k2, TadeDetule, untamed,

It was explicitly stated that applicants should pay visa fees at the bank, and don't insist on any other means.
Stanbic bank have a special deposit slip they will issue you when you pay at the bank, and It must be submitted along the other documents.

Marshlaw:
Also, can the visa fee be paid via mobile transfer or bank deposit is necessary?

Constructive take on someone asking a question on a wrong thread? He left all the valuable information about Brazil here and decides it is Argentina of all places he prefers.
The best thing is for him to look for Argentina thread or create one, or you can as well provide the constructive take for him.

Karleb:


It would have been better if you had given a constructive take on this.
