Does a misdemeanor DUI exclude me from eligibility for a Brazilian Visa?
Does a misdemeanor DUI exclude me from eligibility for a Brazilian Visa?
I am a student who was stupid enough to get a dui my freshman year. I want to go to Brazil for the summer to study portuguese and travel. I need to know before I apply if a DUI can make you ineligible for a visa.

No, not at all. If you are a citizen here you will not have a problem for re entry into the US or to enter Brazil (since your crime was not comitted there). The only things that will cause you a problem is if you are on Parole or probation, as you will not be able to leave the country freely without special permission. Don't drink and drive. I can't tell you how many times I am glad my friends call me for a ride when they have had too much. I will gladly pick them up! It is much better then picking them up from jail or identifying them at the morgue. Take care of yourself! And have a blast in brazil....they don't care much about dui's..LOL!

How do I know if he still loves me like I love him?
How do I know if he still loves me like I love him?
I dated an exchange student at my university last year for the whole year. He returned to his native country of Brazil in June. However, I cannot get over him because I am still in love with him. My relationship with him was the only one in which I felt fully happy. Is it even possible that he still feels the same about me?

He could. You just need to look at him to find out. Search for blushing, eye contact, and lips. Plus he might sweat, but people don't always sweat when they are in love. Its not always the lips either. But sometimes if someone likes you, they will lick there lips. But blushing is what you need to look for. I HOPE THIS HELPS.

Does anyone have and advice on raising money to go on school trip?
Does anyone have and advice on raising money to go on school trip?
My school has a summer program to go to Brazil to study the Amazon. I would love to go and am a broke college student. The trip runs around $4000 and I cannot get financial aid because of budget cuts. I have a job so I am definitely going to try to save up as much as I possibly can but does anyone have any tips or experience on raising money for a trip? I can't ask my family member or friends since they are either broke or just plain cheap.

Collect a group of friends to form a fund raising event for the trip.

Do foreigners living out the the US need to pay income tax and/or capital gain tax for US-based properties?
Do foreigners living out the the US need to pay income tax and/or capital gain tax for US-based properties?
I have been residing in the US (Chicago, IL) for two years (as a legal student) and am the owner of my apartment. I am considering renting it and then selling it after I leave the country and become a fiscal resident of Brazil. Will I be liable for income tax (in the US) on the rent that I'll be receiving (for my US apartment) ? What about capital gain tax when I eventually sell the apartment?

Well, some countries have special treaties with US and they do get a break for taxes. For example, a Taiwanese national do not need to pay taxes on bank interest if they have bank account in US. However, they still need to pay taxes on investment gains.
2 :
Unless there is a tax treaty that provides otherwise -- and there ins't one likely in this case -- you'll be subject to US taxation for the income from the rental and capital gains when you sell. Depending upon the timeline, you may qualify for an exclusion on the capital gain if you lived in the home as your principal residence for 2 of the 5 years immediately prior to the sale. The exclusion amount is $250,000 if your filing status is Single and $500,000 if your filing status is Married Filing Jointly. One caution on this, however. If you marry before you sell the property, you MUST file a joint return with your spouse to qualify for the exclusion on the gain. To do that, she will have to agree to have her world wide income taxed by the US in the year of the sale. Depending upon the numbers, this could kill the benefit of the exclusion if she has significant income. If she does not agree to be taxed by the US, you will have to file Married Filing Separately and will be ineligible for the exclusion. Since you are going to be renting it out, any depreciation allowed or allowable while you rented it out will be subject to recapture and taxation when you do sell even if you qualify for the exclusion.
