During all times, for various reasons, men left their homelands, alone or in groups, seeking new challenges and opportunities. In the shaping of Brazil, one key aspect was the arrival of Portuguese and Africans who, along with the native Indians and people arising from various regions of the world, contributed to the constitution of the Brazilian nation. Portuguese immigration was a constant in the history of Brazil. In the second half of the 20th century, despite the decline in the migratory process, the Portuguese were still coming to Brazil and settling down in places such as Curitiba. What did they expect to find and what did they find in the chosen land? Some of them expected to resume their studies in Brazil, but the studies carried out in Portugal were not considered. This complicated and often prevented the resumption of their education. Based on these assumptions, the research aims to discuss the recognition in Brazil of the schooling acquired in Portugal by the Portuguese immigrants who came to Curitiba in the second half of the 20th century. To reconstruct the period, we adopted the methodology of oral history, in the life history modality, in an interdisciplinary perspective. Portuguese immigrants settled in Curitiba collaborated with the interviews. When the data collected were discussed and interpreted, the results showed not only the difficulties faced by foreigners regarding the recognition of studies carried out abroad, but also the alternatives sought by them to overcome this difficulty.
