The economics of applying just didnt make sense for us - we both live outside of Russia and the costs and time of traveling to apply for the Schengen with the risks of scheduling issues made us decide to stay put in Georgia's long line. We spoke with 3 visa agencies in Russia that help facilitate getting a Schengen and 2 of them told us that because our financial proof would only be my US bank records (wife has no income and shares my cards w/o name on account) we would have problems getting a visa in the first place. Idk if that's true - but a weird repeated problem they highlighted. Also because Schengen applications in RU are processed based on where your RU spouse is registered there are some additional costs or longer waits when they're registered outside the major cities. Honestly, it seems like most people can coordinate getting the visa and Poland appointment just fine. It looks like the way to go if the logistics can make sense for y'all - just a stressful hassle.
