can i get permanent VISA for Brazil ?

Answer
Yes, you can get permanent residence based on marriage.
If you apply from outside Brazil (faster, more expensive), ask for details at the Brazilian Consulate/Embassy.
If you apply from inside Brazil (slower, cheaper), ask at the nearest Policia Federal, where you would apply.
The majority of the documents will need to be "recognized" and officially translated are for the marriage, but at the same time, you should request, have recognized and officially translated a police record that you will need for permanencia.
Note: I hope you realize how difficult it is to get a job in Brazil (you may not better your situation from that in your home country), and, given the large number of inquiries here that all sound the same, are not using this marriage as a scam.

Expertise

Drawing on my personal travel experience in Brazil (more than a decade's worth), as well as time spent living in Brazil (especially Salvador, Bahia) and knowledge of the Brazilian community in the U.S., I can help with most questions concerning travel, specific destinations, paperwork for moving, marriage or business, and more. I enjoy helping people get the most from their stay in Brazil. I'd be happy to hear from you.

Experience

I have spent considerable time in Brazil, living and travelling, over more than a decade. I have travelled widely throughout much of Brazil, sometimes solo and sometimes with Brazilian friends and relatives, and am familiar with many destinations. I have done translation and interpretation, and also have taught ESL.

Publications
I write for a number of travel forums, blogs and publications concerning Brazil.
