US citizen in Brazil

This might not be the right place for this question so if anyone can guide me there please do. I’m from the USA and my fiancé is from Brazil. We applied for the K-1 fiancé visa and are just waiting to hear back (it’s been 4 months). Anyway we are living in Brazil right now so that we can be together while we wait to be approved. Next month will be 6 months for me here in Brazil. I’ve read online that tourists can only stay a maximum of 180 days here in Brazil but that was when visas were required for US citizens (which changed last year - they’re no longer required). Anyway does anyone know if I’m allowed to stay longer? What do I need to do? And what is the penalty if I stay over 180 days? I’ve been trying to call places and read online but have had no luck. Everyone just keeps giving me new numbers to call. No one seems to know. I’m getting desperate because I don’t want to go home without my fiancé because he can’t come to the USA right now and we don’t want to be a part not knowing how soon we can be together. Anything helps. Thanks. Xx

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

Navigating the U.S. Family-Based Immigration Visa Process

For families hoping to immigrate to the United States, the visa process can be overwhelming. With so much uncertainty and complexity involved, it's important to have a clear understanding of the steps and requirements. The first step is determining which family-based immigration visa applies to you. There are two types: immediate relatives and family preference. The former includes spouses, parents, and unmarried children under the age of 21 who are U.S. citizens. Family preference visas are for more distant relatives such as siblings, married children of U.S. citizens, and spouses and unmarried children of permanent residents. Once you know which visa you're eligible for, you'll need to file a petition with USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services). This step requires providing documentation such as birth certificates and marriage licenses, as well as proof of your relationship to the U.S. citizen or permanent resident sponsoring you. After your petitio...
