Brazilian is deported from Portugal and separated from children

According to the Portuguese police, the woman was barred for not having the documentation necessary to legally live in Portugal and because she had already exceeded 180 days of stay in the country, a time she had to live there.

Its defense denies the situation of illegality and states that the Brazilian had the process of permission of residence in progress. It further claims that this regularization has not yet left due to lack of organization of the Portuguese immigration system, which did not realize to issue the necessary documentation before the deadline of the six months it could stay.

According to family lawyers, Tatiana Kazam and Rafaella Lobo, the Brazilian is “protected by a subpoena of protection of rights, freedoms and guarantees”, a judicial appeal that forces a public or private body – to make a decision to guarantee the exercise of a person’s right in time.

The Brazilian’s husband, the lawyer and business administrator Hugo Silvestre, arrived in Portugal with residence and stamp visa in the passport, about two years and six months ago. With regularized documentation, he tried to obtain from the agency for integration, migrations and asylum to his definitive residence portfolio.

It is this document that allows residents in Portugal to request the so -called “family regrouping”, which authorizes the coming of relatives to the country. However, according to the defense, AIMA delayed the lawsuits and granted wild only one provisional portfolio, insufficient to integrate its family.

“At the end of last year I received an invitation from AIMA to go to the agency and regularize the situation, receive my definitive portfolio, and intended to take the opportunity to enter the family regroup,” Silvestre told Estadão. “But getting there, I was barred and informed me that the invitation had been sent by mistake, by error in the system.”
