      When I started this blog on November 1, 2018, my motivation was the indignation I felt at the difficulties imposed by the Brazilian state.

      I'm one of those small investors who find themselves in limbo. I left Brazil in 2019 (with no plans to return), filed my tax return in 2020 and was advised by my lawyer not to inform my bank and broker. I migrated my investments to products exempt from income tax and pension plans. I rent a property and pay income tax (with a foreign investment code) through an attorney in Brazil. I hope to get through unscathed.
      Thank you Vinicius for fighting for this cause.

      Something needs to change about this. Many of those who emigrate are small investors who would choose to leave part of their assets allocated to Brazilian assets but, because they have no alternative, need to liquidate them and take their capital to another country, thus reducing their investment in Brazil.

      So, with the above information, what would the income tax return look like in Brazil?
      Brazilian citizen living in the USA, with residence also in Brazil, which form of declaration should be chosen? COMPLETE OR SIMPLIFIED?
      What amounts must be declared when declaring as an individual in Brazil?

      Thank you in advance.
