  1. How does this consulate sessions work? They will be in LA during those dates and were you able to get an appointment or something? My wife has expired Russian Passport and valid internal visa/passport so would she be able to renew her passport at this event? I will gladly drive down to LA if that is the case. Doesnt look like we will have an interview anytime soon for AOS so she needs some kind of ID and with the passport being expired now she has nothing valid.
  2. She was just using the passport as her only ID as we have nothing until she gets her temp green card. We live in Vegas so I guess San Francisco is the closest Embassy although I thought that one closed. It appears they have an option to not travel which is what we would want to do but I dont see a price on that or how that is possible. Do you mean you used russianpassportservice.org?
  3. Yeah that is what I thought too! I guess it is because there aren't many places offering the service for Russians in the US to do it without going back to Russia. I guess I will check around.
  4. My wife's Russian passport expired and we are waiting for AOS, anyone know if there is there a way to renew it in the US? I heard of an agency that does it. I think its around $1k to do but she doesn't have any other ID so kind of in a bind. Any advise would be really helpful!
  5. So would I login to the US embassy site as normal and select the Almaty embassy, pay the fee then check for interviews? Thank you for the info, been trying to get this sorted and its been a bit of a nightmare.
  6. She speaks Russian, Ukranian and Italian but it looks like Khazakastan might be the best option. Do they take and hold your Russian passport or visa during this process like they did in Moscow? I think that is why Khazakastan is supposed to be the best option since they dont take your documents (I heard something like that but not sure). So would I look at the US embassy site for Almaty and pay and make an appointment there? How did you get it set up? She can just as easily go to Italy as one of her daughters lives there but seems it might be an easier process in Almaty.
  7. So it seems the government has removed all COVID vaccine mandates except for AOS. Does anyone know if they will remove this requirement or am I stuck filing a I-601? Does the I-601 add time to the AOS process? Also, what sequence is the best way to do this? File for AOS along with I-603 and let them know you filed the waiver at the medical exam? Not thrilled to have to pay almost another $1k for a waiver but it is what it is.
  8. I am getting a lot of conflicted info on this. Some say Russians have to travel to Warsaw for renewal, others say you can go to Italy or Khazakastan. But as was pointed out you need to pay for the renewal at the embassy before you can request an interview (and it seems most B2 renewals waive the interview anyway). Totally confused what to advise my mother in law.
  9. I am trying to help my mother in law renew her B2 and not sure what the best way to do that is currently. She is living in Moscow but can go to wherever to renew it. Anyone know the best way to do this currently? She travels to Italy frequently and Ive also heard Khazakastan is a good option to renew it. Any advise would be helpful!
