I got the new Portuguese Digital Nomad D8 Residency Visa

I finally got my visa! I started this process nearly six months ago and in this video I walk you through all the steps I went through and how to go about applying. I could have applied for the D7 or the D8 based on my situation, but it seemed that the D8 was a more straight forward and obvious path for me. I couldn't have done this without the Facebook group "Americans in Portugal," which is a wealth of information in the form of its community and the checklist they provide. You definitely DO NOT need to hire an agency to help you prepare for the application; if you have half a brain you can do it on your own, though it is helpful to hire someone to obtain your NIF and possibly open a bank account. I also recommend spending time on the ground in Portugal prior to applying in order to find a home and go in person to the bank to open your account. I spent three months in Lisbon before my VFS appointment making sure I really wanted to live there, finding a place to live and opening a bank account (this was a lot more annoying and difficult than I could have ever imagined). Portugal is a slow moving country so this process requires an immense amount of patience and perseverance. I probably won't reply to direct questions about this process; I recommend joining the Americans in Portugal Facebook group and reading the documents there, doing your own research and figuring things out on your own as these are essential skills to being able to adapt in a new country. I'm not a visa consultant and don't want to be :)
