    TBoneTX reacted to BenNomad in Schengen visa question   
    Try getting an appointment in another city like Kazan or Nizhny Novgorod. You'll learn a lot by reading Forum Vinskogo where there are threads devoted to the topic of getting Schengen appointments. Some people chose to pay for a bot service that searches for available slots and automatically assigns you. No doubt it's partly because of these bots that makes it so hard for everyone else to book an appointment. Apparently, the BLS-Spain visa center makes appointments available toward the end of the month for the following month. I'm attaching a screenshot of where I got that info. In other threads on that forum you can read how fast each country tends to make a visa decision, which is an important thing to consider since some of them take a month. 
     
    Hungary may still be the best country to get a visa to, and maybe you should to look at other cities where Hungary has visa centers with more available slots than SPB.

    TBoneTX reacted to BenNomad in Russian applicant with a Warsaw interview and no Schengen (yet). What to do?   
    Besides a genuine life/death situation, proving your need for a transfer is not easy. Having a Schengen visa denial is good proof that you can't get to Warsaw. It might also help to describe your case briefly, like what documental proof you have of relationship, lack of prior marriages, etc. I think the simpler your case is, the more likely an embassy will be willing to accept your transfer request. I don't know for sure, but I think it may have helped in my situation. 
     
    But before putting too much hope in getting a transfer, try your best to get to Poland. Research the Forum Vinskogo site for tips on getting a Schengen visa. It's a huge site and you could literally spend days reading it, but it's organized by country and the threads related to getting visas are at the top of each country's section.

    TBoneTX reacted to pushbrk in need some help i864 no income but have assets   
    Yes, 300k USD in cash will do nicely for your wife and even three or four children.  State your income in the tax section by entering the number on the "Total Income" line of your past three tax returns.  You will get a notice "suggesting" that you "MAY" want to use a joint sponsor.  Just ignore that message.  You are a self employed investor, in the present tense, so your job offer is meaningless.  If you want to use the income from a future job, go start working now, so you can state the full 70k as your current income.  You do not "estimate" but if your salary is 70k that's your current income.  (again, only if you are actually working at that job presently)
     
    Presumably you have other assets producing investment income.  State and document those assets too.  It's time to become an A-Student of the I-864 and it's separate instructions.  
     
    You are at NVC.  Your wife is still a few months away from a visa.

    Is This Biden's 'Supermarket Scanner' Moment?
     
    Those of us who've been around a while remember when the press made an epic deal out of President George H.W. Bush's apparent amazement at an ordinary grocery store checkout scanner.  It turns out the story was a complete media fabrication, but it fed the narrative that Bush was hopelessly out of touch, and it helped cost him his reelection.

    This week, Joe Biden actually did do something that shows he is perhaps the most clueless president in American history.  [...]

    Abraham Pretty Sure This Feud Between Ishmael And Isaac Will Blow Over Soon
