  1. Please keep us all updated. Good luck and I hope you can make it through with absolutely no problems
  2. Thank you. Definitely please keep us updated. There have been recent Russian citizens on this forum flying from a Schengen country successfully to Poland to interview in Warsaw
  3. That is very helpful. Thank you. When you applied for the Italian visa, did you need to specify dates and already have travel arrangements made as evidence?
  4. Yes please if you can help direct me that would be fantastic. Thank you so much and I really appreciate it
  5. Do you know of any Russian citizens who have gotten a Schengen Visa recently (to any Schengen country)? I would like to touch base with them and find out about details, specifically what is the maximum length of time the Visa would be valid for that a Russian citizen can reasonably expect to get.
  6. You are correct, you would need to fly to another country first like Turkey or Dubai for example then go to Schengen country where visa approved, then fly to Warsaw
  7. NOA1 2.7.22. NOA2 expected March 2023 (currently California is 13.5 months processing 80% of applications)
  8. I agree with you. Changing consulate location is our plan B. Anecdotally I've heard this is difficult. Our plan a is to get a Schengen Visa in any Schengen country , fly to that country and then go from there to Warsaw for the interview
  9. Hi all. We plan to go to the Warsaw, Poland US Embassy for a K1 interview once called. For Russian citizens, it looks like the most likely chance of success getting to Warsaw is getting a Schengen visa to another Schengen country and then flying from there to Poland. Has any Russian citizen recently been approved for a Schengen visa and could share your experience? Ideally we would want a tourist visa with as many entries and as long as possible and I anecdotally know of some Who Have Been to Spain and Greece and Italy recently but don't know the details of how long their visas are good for. Thank you for your thoughts and experiences.
  10. Ahhh understand. You are saying try to get a Schengen visa in another member state and then go from there to Poland, correct?
  11. Also, re Powerpuff, Poland is not currently accepting visas from Russian citizens unless for humanitarian cases or a family member of a Polish citizen. Currently, it is very restrictive. I communicated by email with people from Polish Schengen visa applications.
  12. Thank you all. We are working with an immigration attorney and have Dubai, Turkey and Serbia at the top of our list given that they are all Visa free and direct flights from Moscow and easy enough for American citizens to get to as well. Side note - I was told if she were to get a Schengen visa for Greece, for example, that would grant her access to fly from Greece to Poland as it is another Schengen state, and a Schengen visa allows travel between the different Schengen members as long as the initial country entered is the country that granted the Schengen Visa. Is anyone knowledgeable about this?
  13. Hello all, In short, my fiance is a Russian citizen, I am an American citizen, she will need to do her K1 visa interview in Warsaw, Poland. However, Poland is not issuing any Polish Schengen visas to Russian citizens (except rare circumstances and K1 interview at US Embassy doesn't count). Is anyone familiar with the process of changing consulate locations and any applicants with Russian fiancee who have done this recently?
