How can I get Portugal’s D7 visa if my passive income comes from the U.S. government in the form of a disability benefit?

Are there any rules against this?

    Foreigners from non-EU countries are eligible for the D7 visa. The mandatory requirement for applicants is to earn a passive income of at least €760 per month in another country and purchase or rent housing in Portugal. There are no specific rules against US disability benefits.

    There are no problems related to the origin of your passive income in this case, as long as you have a regular monthly passive income of at least EUR 760.
