Title: Importing fiance and child
Post by: Omega1982 on February 01, 2018, 08:36:45 PM
Hello gentlemen.  I hope everyone is well.  I am communicating with a single mother aged 30 from Moscow which has a small daughter.  We met last year in Moscow.  She is divorced and she has taken her daughter to Turkey several times for vacation.  So she has some permission from the father.  I have not been able to obtain a clear answer from her so I ask here.  What document is needed to legally bring the daughter here.  Would the father (which also lives in Moscow) have to sign something else?  I'm thinking that one thing is to have permission to go on holiday and the other is to relocate permanently.  Thus far I have only received two responses regarding this issue in the past couple of months.  The first response was "I know what I have to do when the time comes".  The second response was "if this is too much of a problem for you then stop communicating with me".  I know she's been to Turkey with her daughter several times. 

On another note, the ex husband owns several night clubs in Moscow.  Do you guys think this is a legitimate profession?

Why wouldn't it be a legitimate profession?

My opinion is that you're in over your head if you doubt such things.

I wasn’t sure about your background but it makes sense.

With regards to your post, it all sounds a bit sketchy. If she’s suggesting you stop communicating with her over simple questions about a hypothetical future, don’t waste your time communicating with her or finding out about “importing” them.

She sounds like trouble.

I don't know about the US rules, but for the UK, a letter of agreement to leave Russia is required, would think its the same for the US.
If she is the ex-wife of a Moscow night club owner (several as you say), its a mafia racket, my advice to you would be to take big steps (as in run like hell) away from this situation, stop all communications.
Hope that you are hearing well...

I gotta say that I agree with Gipsy. The guy might be a lovely fellow and everything and I'd not be too worried about that stuff except that the woman is behaving in a non-sensible manner.

What she is wanting to do, reading between the lines is sort out the child problem without your input. That means it will not be done right and stuff not done right equals the end of the relationship because the paperwork won't, well, ...work.

My guess, her plan is to bugger off without saying anything to anyone, that'd explain her attitude to you because she knows, on some level that this won't work and that you would know it won't work.

Here's a trick, a suggestion, a lesson that can be learned: Set some standards for yourself. Don't accept the first woman who says 'yes' (and don't tell us otherwise!)

Don't settle for damaged goods - and if we can see damaged goods writ large here then you should be able to do so!

The woman you marry should not make your life worse by being in it. She should not present you with problems and not allow you input into their solution. If that's her strategy it will always be her strategy - and the same goes for the emotional blackmail.

I'd walk away, simply because of the rudeness of her answers. IF she was really in to you and serious - you'd not be getting such answers - sorry ..

BTW, being previously married to a nightclub owner in Russia ( with whom your 'target' has had kids )  should not preclude a relationship leading to living abroad. Some Dad's are 'happy' to rely on another man to provide.

I know someone in that situation - who has residency rights - and works in a reasonably well-paid position...

Dissenting voice - why does the ex matter? He’s the ex. As to her and the child, she’s told you she knows what to do when and if it becomes relevant. Obviously she isn’t ready to move to you (where’s “here”, btw?), and she knows the steps if and when it becomes relevant. That’s why you got the second answer.

I’m not sure about Turkey, but there are some countries women can travel with their children without consent from the ex.

I don't know the regulations regarding Russian travel with children, but for a tourist visa to the USA, families can travel as a group to this country.  Don't know if the father needs to be contacted to obtain his permission, but if they have been to Turkey previously, I would think it wouldn't be necessary.  Owning night clubs could be legitimate.  It would be easy to find other women there especially if you are the owner.

Thank you Andrew and Gypsy.  As always I agree and appreciate your vast knowledge and intelligence and firsthand experience of in country living. 

The supply of young and attractive women in Russia willing to relocate to America has decreased, and in turn many times the price has also increased.  This one is actually half Russian half Soviet (non Slavic).  In what would have seemed like a logical substitute to a scarce good, resulted in a damaged good.  There are some basic economic concepts here.

What you may mean by this, is possibly, "The supply of Russian women looking for a foreign (US) man to marry may well have seen a reduction"...Possibly in part to the perceived current US-Ru situation (Amongst other reasons), however you should note the mentality of Ru ladies.
I would venture to suggest that, IF they fall in love with a foreign (read US) man, they will follow him to the ends of the earth if necessary..
That  is my own experience only, other men (posters here) may have different opinions of course...

It seems that Russian laws pertaining to this subject are a little confusing, as a woman can take here children out of the country for a holiday without any Fathers written consent, BUT, the father should have written consent from the mother to do the same. (he can be refused exit from Russia if checks are made).
However, IF the child is being removed from Ru on a more permanent basis, by either parent, written consent is required, unless, one of the parents has legally denounced his/her parenthood, or been removed from parenthood in a Ru court.
A slightly different law applies when one or both parents are not the biological parents.

Russian Citizens do not require a visa to enter Turkey for tourist or business reasons for a 60 day visit.

Turkish immigration is very lax (i.e. almost non existent) when it comes to checking parental permission documents for tourist visits.  If the child was listed as abducted then the child's passport would "flag up" and the travel party would be detained. Otherwise you will just be waived through.

One really cannot "vanish" in Turkey anymore.  If you overstay your visa you will be fined and deported.  Simple as that.  Turkey now has over 3 million "migrants" and the laws governing them are tightening.

If the mother wished to obtain a "Ikamet"(residence visa) for herself and the child then the fathers permission is mandatory.  The Turkish authorities would contact him direct.  Turkey is a Muslim country so the father's wishes are paramount.

While I am the first to say that these relationships are both economically motivated and economically managed it is a mistake for you to undervalue yourself.

Here's the truth:
1) You'd be MUCH better off looking for a wife from where you live.
2) You need to start working on your self-esteem such that you understand you are worth more than you seem willing, time and again, to accept.
3) While economic factors play into the process fo finding ANY life partner the relationship between you and your future wife is largely emotional and if you don't get that bit right then everything else will fail - except in the edge case where you are able, for one reason or another, to manage a relationship that is solely economics. We know that this is not you because you are looking for a wife and that is a largely emotional relationship.

You might need some external help with both these points.

About permanent immigration - I can speak about the Canadian case, which is that immigration is going to want to see a verified certificate of parental consent when there is a child who is planning to immigrate with only one parent. If such a certificate cannot be produced, the application is going to be refused.

While I cannot say with certainty, I imagine that immigration to the US is similar in this particular regard.

Agree that it is a convoluted topic whenever visas, immigration, and children are involved. You seem to be referring to Russia’s exit requirements, but it doesn’t mean a mother can take her child wherever she likes for a holiday without consent of the other parent, because when exiting Russia, there needs to be a destination and each country has its own entry requirements.

For example, here’s what you are looking at for a Schengen visa:

The minor’s birth certificate
The application form has to be signed by both parents
In cases where one parent has full custody over the child, the family court order has to be attached.
Certified copies of ID/passport of both parents.
The notarized parental authorization signed by both parents or guardians is attached if the minor is to be travelling alone.

In regard to the original question, a minor who is travelling with one parent should have a notarized letter of consent from the non-travelling parent, in addition to a passport and birth certificate. A notarized letter of consent should also be part of a petition for permanent residency, as well as an application for naturalization. In the event that the non-travelling parent is deceased or missing, a death certificate or police document would be considered adequate proof. In cases where a former spouse has been stripped of parental rights, court documents should be produced. As always, any foreign-language document must be accompanied by a certified translation. Enforcement is inconsistent but the chances that it will be an issue increase as one progresses toward naturalization.

FYI, "fiancé" is the masculine form and "fiancée" is the feminine form.

Also FYI, many FSU women would consider it to be a great insult that they are referred to as being "imported." If you are wise, you will delete this term from your active vocabulary.

While I am not 100% certain to the rules regarding to Russia I understand that between Ukraine and Russia the laws are parallel.

If the child is only written in the mothers passport, and this is so noted, the mother can move as she wishes with 'sole custody' of her sproglet. Another step further a mother can and has in the past obtained sole custody of her child that she has raised and the father in EVERY respect ignored, both in Russia and Ukraine. This is again noted in the mothers passport and now the childs.

In my step sons passport it is clear his mother has sole control. Having said this Nicolas often spends time with his biological father. But he has zero control over his mothers choices. As other posters have noted there are numerous red flags in this thread and I would suggest to Omega that he carefully and coldly examine the goals of the woman he is communicating with.

For clarities sake Andrew lives along the Baltic and Steve has a property in Transnistria.
