Hi everyone, does anyone has news or an estimated time of when the US consulate in Rio de Janeiro will reopen?

 

I know we have to wait for official news, but me and my wife are really anxious because we have been apart for so long (our process started in Feb 2019) and we have been traveling to see each other as much as we could, but now because of the Covid it became even harder.

:(

 

Our NVC documents are approved already so we are just waiting for the Brazilian consulate to reopen to schedule our interview... I know we might not get any information now, but we're just hoping to maybe get some good news soon since a lot of the embassies and consulates around the world are opened already.

 

Thanks for reading everyone, stay safe! :)

Coronavirus news in Brazil has sounded pretty positive the past couple of days, with some articles saying it is stabilizing. We will likely need to see gradual improvement over the next weeks/months before the Rio embassy opens up for visa interviews.

I am heading to Brazil in 2 weeks. My wife lives in Belo Horizonte. I fly there every 3-4 months to see her. You could email them and ask. They might give you a generic response. Right now, they are only helping US citizens stuck in Brazil.
