Wife is in Russia
So Russia invaded Ukraine and now I am seeing reports NATO suspended all Visa’s from Russia …? is there no hope for this? And I can’t even request a expedite because case is not approved yet.

that was kinda harsh Manuel
B KingFeb 25, 2022
Manuel but how does the EU decide if she gets into America or not? We been waiting 6 months so far for approval or not. So you think they will automatically reject it?
B KingFeb 25, 2022
@Manuel Seems like you are assuming shit with what the US will do. And stop acting like a smart ass on this app buddy.
A syFeb 25, 2022
Manuel is right.I agree

@Chad Tai - I just wanted to express my sympathy for the situation you and your wife find yourselves in. You must be so worried. I hope things resolve speedily and you are reunited soon.
B KingFeb 25, 2022
@manuel buddy you just like me on the app trying to get a Visa for someone. Don’t throw your anger out on me because you been waiting for a long time. Just a random chad acting like he knows if they will accept my wife or not.
Adiba AnjumFeb 25, 2022
@chad maybe you can expedite it before they do decide. also I am very sorry for everything! i hope you find a way and can be with your wife soon.

a lot of guessing here. you have to wait for the official announcements, “hear say” is not good for this. I would guess and say that visas issued for business may get suspended but that doesn’t mean they will hold off on a K1. Follow what the USCIS does not what NATO says. We may be a huge part of NATO but the organization doesnt control USCIS. expect to see some frustration as there are folks in the Ukraine now that I imagine will find it impossible to get the interview now thanks to Russia. these events will toss a wrench into the system, people are pissed, market is down, probably not a lot of love for Russia at the moment.

Don't worry, you need to wait for Approve , it takes for a fiancé visa up to 12 months, then IOM can pass in Moscow or Warsaw and an interview in Warsaw. There are no restrictions yet.
Ashly LeroyFeb 25, 2022
@Chad my heart goes out to you and your fiancé. I don’t think your pending case with uscis will be impacted, but maybe the consular interview might be a challenge.
Jennifer MFeb 25, 2022
Hey Chad, I'm sorry for the situation you guys are in. And I'm also sorry for this Person attacking you for no reason. People can be rude as hell. I'm sure most of the Russians don't want this War. I'm in Europe as well waiting for an approval.
Hope kFeb 25, 2022
Even though it’s no one persons fault, unfortunately they have to suffer! Chad, Manuel is right! To add to that, America is also contemplating kicking the Russian students etc. out as a result of Putins decisions. It would be hard to expect that anyone will be entering from Russia anytime soon.

Manuel, take a chill pill and relax. Stop punching down on people. It won’t make you get yiur citizenship application approved sooner. The person asked a legitimate question. Respond if you can in a polite way, because you don’t know the person across from you and their situation, problems, struggles. A little compassion and politeness goes a long way.
Chad, we are all sending positive vibes your way, hopefully it gets resolved. The Russia-Ukraine business is terrible.
Red lightFeb 25, 2022
Well, first of Chad, I'm sorry you and your fiancee are in this situation. I'm sure most Russians do not want this war, Now Ukrainians are the real victims here, but the Russians will also be casualties in this war that their government chose for them.
Now, this could all be speculation, but I believe what Manuel was trying to tell you was that the EU has decided to take drastic and decisive measures that will affect Russia, and its economy, and Russia knowing this will try to Retaliate which has started already.
A few hours ago “Russia banned any British airlines in its airspace” and I'm guessing they'll do the same to the US and expect the US to do the same.
I hope you're reunited soon with your family and let's not forget to pray for the people of Ukraine 🇺🇦
Adiba AnjumFeb 25, 2022
@Manuel. whatever you said might be accurate but the way you speak is very harsh specially to someone who is going through a hard time. I don’t know if English is your first language but, saying things like: are you really expecting any western country to give a visa to a Russian citizen right now? and you are just delusional and angry is very harsh way to speak to someone who is having a hard time. your words to them right now are stabbing them in ways you can’t imagine. and just because Biden is angry doesn’t mean you have to be. you could have just said: unfortunately in my opinion this and this might happen. but you woke up and chose to ruin someone’s day
Jennifer MFeb 25, 2022
I have been reading that only Diplomats and Russian Businessmen will not be getting Visas for the US...
lily BondFeb 25, 2022
thank you Adiba, that’s what I said earlier. there’s no reasons to talk so harshly. facts or not, try to put yourself in this other person’s shoe.
Uros JovanovicFeb 25, 2022
Manuel I guess that keyboard really doesn’t fight back, so you can go around and call people names, huh? Go ahead, maybe that will land you that citizenship earlier, but don’t get surprised when someone calls you out for ranting and for being inconsiderate and delusional. A little compassion goes a long way, I already explained, so I will not repeat myself. Best of luck to you, hope you get your citizenship as soon as possible so you can leave this platform with that stench of an attitude.

My wife case was approved 🙌🏾. This goes to shows don’t listen to trolls who have no idea what they are talking about.
Uros JovanovicApr 5, 2022

Don’t listen to pathetic trolls who change names.
