I agree. I do like living in Brazil, but my wife gets tired of me complaining about how everything here is sooooooo much more difficult than in USA. She shuts me up by saying " Let's move back" and that shuts me up. KKKKKKKKKKK Read More

Wow, my expat life keeps getting more complicated. I do not have a residence (home/apt) or a car in the USA. I do use my sister-in-law's address as my permanent address. I don't have any particular reason to maintain a connection to that state ... Read More

Transferring US Dollars to Brazil by MacaeRick

Thanks for the info. Since it is a weekend, and Monday is a holiday, I will try to go to the bank one day next week. This issue is not an emergency. I will follow up with the solution once I solve this issue. Read More
