does anyone know what the deal is on dual citizenship? is it possible?
I have dual citizenship, so yes it is possible. I enter and leave Brazil with my Brazilian passport and do the same in the U.S. with my American one.
If anybody tries to tell you that x country doesn't allow dual citizenship take it with a HUGE grain of salt.
Most people don't know any better. No country can demand you renounce citizenship to another country as a requirement of becoming a citizen of theirs. With that said, I'm not sure what the naturalization rules in Brazil are....such as if you have to live there X amount of years before applying, if you have to be currently living there, etc...
As for converting your license.... I believe as a foreigner you can only convert to a PPL until you naturalize. After that you can get your CPL, ATP, etc... so I would make naturalization your first priority THEN work on converting your licenses. On the other hand, I guess it wouldn't hurt having a Brazilian PPL for the time being and get some flying under your belt...get used to Portuguese ATC, etc..
