VISA QUESTION!?I need help ASAP?

Question

Ok I am married to a brazilian and we are deciding to move to brazil for 6 months, to be around his mother. I have my passport but I need to get a Visa from the brazilian embassy in Boston. I dont know what kind of visa to get, because a tourist visa only allows me to stay there 3 months at a time, I have to go for 3 months and then remain in the US for 3 months. then I can return, So I don't want that visa, I need one to be able to stay there longer, do you know what I can do?

BTW I am leaving Sept 22nd, I have my ticket already so I need to be fairly fast! THANKS!

Answer 1

Perhaps a green card or a sight-seeing visa may work.

Answer 2

In general, it is difficult for American citizens to gain visas to Brazil, since the Brazilian and US governments aren't on good terms.

I'm not sure, however, if you need to spend 3 months in America before going back to Brazil for another 3 months.

The only thing I can suggest is instead of going all the way to America every 3 months, go over into Argentina (which allows American citizens in the country for 90 days without them having to apply for a visa), apply for a visa at the Brazilian embassy there, and then go back to Brazil. That way, you wouldn't have to make the long journey back to the States.
