Suggest you find a member of the Federal Police where you live to help you. They can process it and make things go faster. Maybe someone you know has contacts.
Basically you put together a plan for your business and submit it to the FP. They send it to Brasilia and it either gets approved or not.
Believe you need something like US $10,000 in the bank to show you are serious.
Mine took about 6 months
I don't know what kind of a business you are trying to open but you have to realize Brasil is IN a recession right now and not coming out of it tomorrow. Everybody is broke.
Might have luck with something like an ice cream store or a sandwich shop (like Subway)
Not much going on with tourism and that area is saturated anyway by locals.
Teaching English won't work either because there are schools on every corner.
If your goal is to live in Brasil long term just find yourself a nice woman, lot easier. A book could be written about that subject alone.

Hello!
Just for your information: the amount to be brought into Brazil through the Central Bank in order to qualify for an investor's visa has gone up from R$ 150,000 to R$ 500,000. The reason for this is that most of the foreigners applying for and being granted this sort of visa did not comply with the regulations and did not keep their business running. They just used the visa to be able to stay in Brazil. As a result, the government has set an amount that is more difficult to have readily available so that only serious investors dare apply. The investor's visa was created so that foreigners can WORK in Brazil and EMPLOY Brazilians, especially low income workers.

@FloridaGuyinBrasil
many thanks for your quick reply
I have been reading that you have to invest like R$ 500'000
in real estate for a Permanent Investors Visa

the downside of this is that the person that wants to obtain the investor visa cannot be the administrator of the company. The registered administrator of the company must be a Brazilian citizen or have a permanent visa to Brazil.
The administrator does not need to be a partner in the company but will have full power of attorney for your company in a interim period.

do you have any other information
