Russia, Ukraine and BelarusNew Card Ordered
WOW; I thought these forums were dead. In two days I see only one comment and respond, then come back after a few more days and see an active discussion. I knew if anyone could do it, Slim could! good.gif



I think that despite all of the USA's current problems there is still pride in being a US citizen and no better place. (Once Texas succeeds from the Union I'm sure I'll have a different opinion, "it's a whole other country"). jest.gif All kidding aside I think the biggest plus for obtaining citizenship is minimizing the likelihood of being separated from your family / kids should the unthinkable happen. I asked Ksenia this question and she thinks it is important to have the same citizenship as your family heart.gif . There are also a lot of convinces that come with having the "blue passport", have you tried going on a down island cruise with the visa requirements to the smaller islands like St. Lucia etc, all want visa for Russian citizen. Currently wait times for Naturalization is much lower than recent history but this could possibly change dramatically with upcoming "Immigration Reform" for current illegals, IMO.



As for as the second amendment; (meh NRA member) I pray we can hold onto this, current administration is already putting ground work in to whittle away at this right protest6wz.gif . If you take the stand, "you can pry it out of my cold dead hand" this is exactly what I see as the administrations battle cry for more regulation. Hopefully the "Bitter white people clinging to God and guns" still rings in your ears, it does mine secret7vf.gif . If you think your right is all inclusive to all of the US and it's territories you should think again. US Virgin Islands for example has mandatory license requirements, what they don't tell you is your guns will be kept by the police dept pending your application review, sometimes this is indefinite. I gave my 9mm S&W / 12ga. Riot SG / .22 pistol to them 5 years ago and am still waiting. I have no criminal history. I'm glad I left all my rifles in Texas ranting33va.gif . Only the local criminals have guns here, hence all the mayhem and lawlessness. Buy ammo, if you can find it! ph34r.gif OK OK, back on topic.



As I said in my first response we don't see any downside to it, only good. Our application will be in the mail 4/21/09, then after citizenship, no more immigration, WOOT! dancin5hr.gif

Russia, Ukraine and BelarusTravel Problems
QUOTE (akdiver @ Sep 25 2009, 11:29 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
However, this whole business of having to make two trips to a Russian consulate IN PERSON to renew a Russian passport is ridiculous -



My wife was able to update hers by mail, perhaps because we live so far from any Russian consulate or maybe rules have changed recently.
Cliff_KseniaMaleRussia2009-09-28 16:25:00
Russia, Ukraine and BelarusTravel Problems
My wife in attempts to avert such problems had her Russian passport updated to show her married name, it is only a stamp in her passport saying she is also know by her now married name. Hopefully that is enough. We are planning to have an extended visit next summer and don't want/need any problems.
