What you can settle without going to the consulate
- Issue the Brazilian criminal record certificate on the Federal Police website, without the consulate.
- Do the INSS proof of life by biometrics in the Meu INSS and gov.br apps.
- Get a US document apostilled by the Secretary of State of the state that issued it.
Before you go, check the consulate's page for its hours and how to request a service: each office publishes its own.
