I have done it for others. It is not a problem as long as you have the proof of non-jurisdictional residence. A drivers license works. It is also a good idea to bring a copy of the consular reference. I always carry the regulations with me when visiting bureaucrats. It sometimes helps and never hurts. The Brazilians want each piece of paper presented in order, just like the US ones do. As long as you do that you'll have no problem. Just don't come without each document they have specified.
