Туристическая виза для украинцев во время войны

[Tatiana S 20]

В период с 24.02 по 08.03 кто-то из украинцев подавал ли документы на туристическую визу и был ли уже ответ (отказы или согласования)?

I believe Warsaw is now handling everything for Ukraine, Russia and Belarus.  There is a person in this thread that recently had a B2 issued from Warsaw.  Maybe @ЮлияAndMalachi will weigh in with their experience.

Actually, Frankfurt has been designated for immigration visas:

VISA SERVICES IN GERMANY FOR UKRAINIAN CITIZENS OR NATIONALS 

IMMIGRANT VISAS  

If you are a U.S. citizen or Legal Permanent Resident with a Ukrainian relative seeking to travel to the United States on an immigrant visa:   

• The designated processing post for all Ukrainian Immigrant (IV), Diversity Lottery-2022 (DV)  and K-1 (fiancé/e) visas is the U.S. Consulate General in Frankfurt, Germany.  All Ukrainian IV, DV, and K cases are urgent.  Frankfurt is processing all Ukrainian cases on a first-in, first-out basis and is not granting individual expedite requests at this time, except in cases such as those where the applicant has an immediate life-threatening medical condition that can be treated only in the United States.

• If you have an I-130 petition approved by USCIS pending processing at the National Visa Center (NVC) and want to transfer it to another U.S. embassy or consulate, you may request expedition and transfer from the National Visa Center:  https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/national-visa-center/nvc-contact-information.html    

• If you have not yet filed a petition but wish to do so, you may contact U.S. Consulate General Frankfurt at frnuscisinquiries@state.gov to request local filing in Frankfurt.  Please note that Frankfurt is only accepting I-130 petitions filed by U.S. citizens on behalf of their spouse, child(ren) (under age 21) or parent(s).  Both the petitioner and the applicant(s) must be physically present in Germany.  

• If your immigrant visa case was already transferred from NVC to Kyiv for the appointment and processing, it will automatically be transferred to Frankfurt.

• If you have a question about an immigrant visa case that is already in process at U.S. Consulate General Frankfurt, please see our VISAS Navigator   

If you are a U.S. citizen with a Ukrainian fiancée/fiancé seeking to travel to the United States on a K1 visa:   

You must have an approved I-129F from United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) before applying for a K-1 visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate abroad.  If you filed an I-129F petition with USCIS that has not yet been approved, you can request an expedite for USCIS processing at https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-guidance/how-to-make-an-expedite-request .  U.S. consulates and embassies are not authorized to accept locally filed I-129F petitions.  

 

For non-immigrant visas, Poland and Germany seem to be handling transfers from applications already made to Kyiv.  If this is a new tourist visa application, I believe you can apply at the country you have evacuated to.

 

The embassies seem to re-iterate that tourist visas are only for temporary visits to the US, not for refugee relocation.

NONIMMIGRANT VISAS 

There are no nonimmigrant visas specific to those who have fled the armed invasion of Ukraine and are seeking to travel to the United States temporarily.   

Before applying for a nonimmigrant visa, you should consider carefully whether you qualify for the visa for which you intend to apply.  Most nonimmigrant visas are for short-term temporary stays in the United States and to qualify, you must show that you have strong ties to your home country and a residence abroad that you do not intend to abandon. 

If you wish to apply for a nonimmigrant visa, please note the following:  

• Demand is extremely high, availability is low, and wait times and processing times are likely to be very lengthy.  You may wish to refer to the humanitarian relief information above.

• If you already have an appointment for a visa interview in Germany but wish to expedite it, you may request expedition via https://ustraveldocs.com/de/de-niv-expeditedappointment.asp   

• If you already began a nonimmigrant visa application process in Ukraine, you may send a request to support-germany@ustraveldocs.com to ask for transfer of your “profile” to Germany, after which you should be able to continue the process for an appointment in Germany. 

• If you are seeking but do not already have an appointment visit https://ustraveldocs.com/de/de-niv-appointmentschedule.asp and sign up for the first available appointment of the type you are eligible for.
