Question:
|
|
|
| I am a U.S. citizen married to a Russian, living in the U.S. My wife is being forced to return to Russia for 2 years before she can get her Green Card (because of her original J-1 visa and a U.S. funded exchange program). Our 1-year-old daughter (a U.S. citizen) and I will go with my wife to Russia for those 2 years. I understand that it takes 6 to 8 months for me to get a temporary resident permit – is that right? Can I be in Russia, working, while I wait? (I don’t have a job lined up, and we will need income.) I understand that with a temp. resident permit, I must stay in the same apartment – I cannot move. I don’t think there is much work for an architect in my wife’s hometown (Salavat, in Bashkortostan) – I think I would have a better chance of finding work in Moscow. But can I get temp. resident permit there? Also, I have to demonstrate sufficient income: how much is that? Do I have to line up a job in Russia before I apply? I will have to give up my U.S. job for those 2 years. |

Dear Ben,
The easiest way for you is to get 1 year multi-entry visa support from one of the reliable visa agencies and after you get a job in Russia your employer will have to process your work permit. |
