She should go home, she can’t be too far along if she just got here a couple months ago....... let her file an answer to the complaint and ask for child support via an attorney after she is back in Brazil. He is the US Citizen  and she can receive her child support on a card which she can use there. Also they can’t make her stay now, if she waits until she has the baby then she will need to seek permission to leave. I just really don’t think she wants to leave. Try a Catholic Charity, the Consulate. She can get into a shelter and try to seek assistance in getting funds to return. 

The womens shelter sent a police car and picked her up to bring her back to the shelter. The shelter has a lawyer, and is going to reply to the divorce complaint. She is planning on going back long before the baby is born, but wants to try to get what she wants settled before leaving, and also has to figure out how to get money for airline tickets.  I hope she gets some assistance from the shelter.

She was a federal government firefighter in Brazil, which was a very hard to get job there, but gave it up to come here, and therefore, not allowed to return to it...

Sounds like the Consulate is her best bet.

 

Makes you wonder how her and the children got a B in the first place, sort of assumed everybody has a CC nowadays.

 

Mind you sounds like you do not know here and your wide only vaguely.

My wife says the way she got her B was because of her job in Brazil, a military firefighter. There firefighters are much different there than here.

Well I found the cheapest way for them to get to Rio I think. Take the 5 hour drive to Dallas flu to Miami for 90 bucks then from Miami to Rio is 460 so that's less than 600 a piece even if you figure in a bus ticket if no one can drive her. Not sure how helpful that is. I always drive or fly to another airport when I go to Thailand because they charge you way more if you connect in the states for some reason.

Hello woods, how are you? Well, I'm in Brazil and maybe I could be a contact trough you with her family. We can also try to raise some money using some websites. I have groups on FB of Brazilians living in USA.

Oh my that’s very sad, I’m sorry i can’t really help but 

I hope she can get back to her live in Brazil and be somewhat at peace! This does not sound like a good experience!

 

Best od luck to you and also her, very very nice of you to help and put as much effort in this as possible!!

 

Oh and as for the child support, I think for now it’s most important to get her out of there and back to her family...Child support is going to be a really long and annoying thing but at least it’s better than fearing for my own and my kids lives I guess!

Although she is technically not an immigrant, the contacts in the IMBRA Phamphlet maybe helpful:

 

From the IMBRA Pamphlet:

She was just now served a mutual restraining order and a complaint for divorce. She simply wants to survive. She DOES NOT want to be with him. She wants to go back to her country, but has no money. She had a very good job in Brazil, but once you leave the type of job she had, you can't go back. She is worried about the childs future, he is telling her that he is going to get custody of the child.  It's messed up...

 

Help her contact her embassy and she can tell them she needs help going home.

I guess I wasn't clear. She does want to go back to Brazil. She does NOT want to stay in USA.  Yes, that is what I do know, from Miami is ALWAYS cheaper to Rio. Try a flight from Little Rock Arkansas to Rio.  I do appreciate your time though. She has gotten a ride from the police to a womens shelter. She still needs to find out how to get to her home country though.

Flying from Memphis usually much less than Little Rock.

But OP has mention she does not want to go back? OP if she does want to go back, like others have suggested you can contact catholic charities... or try to contact her family back in Brazil.

No she WANTS to GO BACK. Re-read his first posts. He is also saying it again either on the 2nd page or this page.

And it makes no sense to stay here anyway. Pretty clear!

[HappyBunny 22]

Ohh okay. I read carefully now.  Good luck to her. It must be terrible.
