Não ligue pra as pessoas que não entendem a cultura brasileira. Sou gringo mas moro a 4 anos no Brasil depois de casar com a minha esposa e agora estamos quase conseguindo nosso greencard pra ela. Eu me choquei ao ver como WhatsApp é usado no Brasil pra tudo...... TUDO!!  Fazer pedidos de pizza, agendar consulta, saber as últimas fofocas das vizinhas, postar no Grupo do bairro quando alguém perde um cachorro. Nos gringos não temos isso é a maioria não entende (o fato q ainda por cima falou pra te se comunicar em espanhol e suficiente pra te ver o quanto não sabemos de vcs). Em fim, parabéns pela boa ação. Acho boa idea, pois o Brasil não é país de agilizar as coisas quando se trata de documentos....... ficamos quase 5 horas na delegacia brigando com a delgada pra ela fazer o atestado criminal  civil pra nos. Então sempre é bom compartilhar pq eu não achei suficiente dicas aqui no VJ quando se tratou disso na delegacia. Abraço. 

Yes thats true use Whatsapp in Brazil is very common and I just was trying to come closer of another Brazilians through the same K-1 Visa process,to make new friends and help because that is a long time process and many peoples feel lost and lonely, Thanks for your words you understand what I am trying to do, just help others and not attack anyone ;).

Thankfully no one is stopping her  from communicating in Spanish, since Brazilians don’t speak Spanish. But just so you understand why she offered this group on WhatsApp....... Brazilians have a strong, and I mean very strong relationship with WhatsApp. When I moved to Brazil after marrying my wife I was blown away by it. You can order pizza via WhatsApp, request home internet service, schedule a doctors appoint, order parts and have em delivered, share pictures of your missing dog on the neighborhood groups etc. It so much a part of their life that phone companies even have monthly plans that include unlimited WhatsApp after your monthly data is up, that’s how big of a deal it is. I completely understand her idea, especially since there have been a few things I couldn’t find information on VJ that were strictly Brasil related but instead I was helped by our neighbors daughter who had gone thru process...... which leads me to my last point, not all Brazilians are on VJ. Honestly not many know about VJ, nor do they speak/ understand English.......so there’s a lot of people out there that could benefit off her WhatsApp group. 

Exactly!!!! Thank you!
