nessa and i had our interview on 2 oct, this past monday. we were interviewed by pamela (who i thought was mentioned to be a blonde but when nessa and i got there she had black hair! :unsure: ) maybe she read the previous posts on rio consulate interviews and was trying to fool us :lol:

nessa and i arrived early, about 0715 and it did make a difference in that the first ones in could get the numbered ticket, meaning you'd be called sooner to turn in your documents. nessa and i were the 2nd ones in to do that, and the 4th ones called in for the interview. the ones who were first to get a numbered ticket and first to turn in their papers were called 2nd, so nessa and i took that to mean it does make a difference if you are there first.

nessa was asked only one question:

- if her parents would attend our wedding.

i was asked more questions than nessa::ranting:

- how did we meet

- how many times i'd been to brazil (i thought it was a trick question as it was my second trip)

- if i prefered the interview was in english or portuguese (i said english as i'm the vice president of the "my portuguese sucks" club)

we were finished in 8 minutes, and told to come back after 1500 on wednesday (that's 3 pm for you civilians :P )

Hello Nessa,

Maybe you can help us. I just started our Journey. My question is when does my Fiancee need to apply for her Brazilian passport. She is muito nervoso about the entire process.

Thanks,

Don
