Hello from Canada
« on: May 05, 2018, 07:50:52 AM »
Hello,

I am 29 years old and live in Canada. I went to school for Accounting. I have been putting off this trip for years. I have now booked a trip. I am just going for tourist reasons, and not love. I was wondering if anyone from Canada would be able to answer my questions regarding the visa application on the Russian Consular website?

I'm sure our resident Moscowvite Canuck Jerash can oblige

If  not, pm him

BTW ... I'm REALLY Irish ..you are surely not another N.American seeking an alternative heritage?;)

Hi James, welcome to RUA. I was to Russia in 2010 and used Visaconnection to get my visa, not the consulate. So I don't know if I can help or not but I can try. There are also a couple other Canadian members here who have been there recently who might be able to help. What were you wondering about?

Welcome to RUA.

There are a number of Canadian members who can guide you present.

RUA would be more useful with questions regarding more interpersonal aspects of cross cultural relationships.

Thanks for the welcome. I think I got the visa process figured out.

Listen to the advice given and not the posters style.
