BRAZIL POLICE REPORT HELP

[Tim & Fer 0]

Hey everyone out there.....hopefully someone will have some info about this type of situation

My fiance is from Ecuador....she was living in Brazil while doing dentist school there. We didn't start doing the fiance visa process until right before she left because we didn't know when we were wanting to get married.

Anyway, I came across the packet 4 from Ecuador and it states she needs a police report from all countries outside the US that she has lived since age 16.

In Brazil, there are 2 types of police reports, a federal report and a state report. Apparently, the federal government keeps a separate database from the civl/state government....so a federal report and a state report are both required for when she goes to her interview at the consulate.

She was able to obtain the federal report...but didn't have time to get the state report as we learned that she needed it too late and the processing time for the report would have been after she left.

I had talked to someone at the NVC service center about this and they said that we would only need one report...however; I emailed the consulate in Guayaquil and they told me that since the federal and state governments keep separate databases, both reports would need to be obtained.

The problem is now that since she is back in Ecuador, we are having a real tough time getting the state report....and it is starting to look like we might not get it.

Has anyone come across anything like this....any advice? Will they deny her visa because the state report isn't obtained even though she has a federal report?

Any help would be appreciated!!

Thanks!!!

Where did she live? If she lived in São Paulo state, she's lucky 'cus São Paulo have an online service where you can order the certificate.

She did live in São Paulo state....specifically in Bauru.

The other problem we are having is this....on that website that you can order the report, it asks you for your Brazil ID number. She was only issued a temporary ID and never received the official one....which is the one needed to order the report online.....we're being told that she has sign a power of attourney and send it to a friend there to physically go to get it. But we're not sure on how to do that or if we can get someone to do that for us....we really don't want to have to send her back to Brazil just to get this report

I would like to know the web site to pass along to my fiancee who lives in SP.

If she can order online, this would be great...

Thanks

Tim, I am pretty sure she'll need to go to the brazilian consulate in her country in order to make a power of attorney, and she'd need to call São Paulo to make sure she can use one.
