***NEW UPDATE AS OF DEC 2024*** FBI background checks need to be apostilled going forward.

If you're looking to move to Portugal + need to know more about how to get here on the D7 retirement (or passive income) visa, look no further.

As a follow up to our last episode overview, Mark + I go in depth on the actual application requirements one-by-one and give you some big picture perspective about WHY they are asking you for this stuff + how to best position yourself for an approval on your visa application.

Please note:  This was our personal experience in Fall 2023-February 2024.  We are not providing legal advice but merely sharing our own experience.
