Curious if anyone may be able to answer questions about a student VISA extension. My present circumstances are I鈥檓 an Australian citizen, living in Brazil on a student VISA and working in Papua New Guinea. That last detail complicates matters some what.

Effectively I鈥檒l be out of Brazil on work commitments when all the documents are ready to renew my student Visa and it鈥檒l expire prior to my return. Preventing me from re-entering the country.

Would anybody know if someone with power of attorney can lodge paperwork on my behalf at the federal police in my absence? (A lawyer in S茫o Paulo suggested the answer was yes but that was with the caveat of a sizeable upfront fee to perform in that capacity which made the advice seem questionable)

Can a student Visa be extended after it鈥檚 expiry date? If so is there a cut off period (for example, within 30 days of expiry)? Alternatively, can a new student Visa be issued based on a university course for which a Visa has previously been issued?

Does working in an alternate country violate any terms of a student Visa?

Finally, following expiry of the Visa, assuming no renewal, would 6 months be the period I鈥檇 have to wait before being allowed to re-enter the country?

If you鈥檝e read this far and have come to the seemingly obvious answer of these questions should be addressed to the respective embassy, consulate, federal police or independent legal advisor. They have. All answers have been varied, confused or non-committal.

Any info would be appreciated.
