120 Considerations to marrying a Russian woman

1. Russian women on the internet are young and beautiful. Their culture deems they
get married at a young age.
2. We do not engage in mail order bride services. If you contact a woman and win her
heart, yes you can marry. You cannot marry her unless you win her heart .
3. Yes some Russian women are desperate to leave Russia. However, most are not.
Russian women are highly intelligent and will not marry you unless they are made
to feel secure in their choice.
4. Ghandi once said, “Be the change in the world you desire.” This is so true. If you
want your women to love and respect you, please love her and respect her too.
5. If you marry a woman for her body, do not be surprised if she married you for your
money.
If you think you've met the right woman, and want to marry her, the right way
depends on the country. Most countries have special visas: fiancee or spouse
visas. Those visas are specially designed to allow foreign nationals to marry a
citizen.
6. For USA it will be fiancee (K-1) visa that you should apply for: it is a special non-
immigrant visa given to people that intend to marry. To receive a fiancee visa you
must prove that you have met in person before (4-10 "romantic" photos together, air
tickets, hotel bills, tickets to concerts and other activities you attended together,
etc), and that you have an established relationship (include copies of emails,
envelopes/letters, postcards, phone bills, etc). You both should be legally free to
marry (not married at the moment), and your fiancee should not have a criminal
record or dangerous disease (HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, syphilis etc). You need to
have a yearly income of more than 125% of the current poverty level (more than
$13,500). Only USA citizens can apply for a fiancee visa; permanent residents are
not eligible for this visa and should marry outside the country.
7. You must be married within 3 months from the arrival of your fiancee on the fiancee
visa, or she will have to go back. The fiancee visa cannot be extended; in case you
did not marry she will have to re-apply for another visa to enter the USA for the
second time. A warning here is that it will be very difficult for the women to get a
visa again if she is sent back to Russia
8. Unmarried children of fiancee visa holders under 21 years old receive visas K-2 (no
separate application is required, visas are issued automatically).
9. Since 2001 spouses of American citizens (if you married at her country) are eligible
for a non-immigrant visa K-3 (their children for visas K-4), which take a longer time
to process than immigrant spouse visas.
10. For Australia it will be prospective marriage temporary visa (subclass 300). You will
need to demonstrate that you and your fiancee met in person, that your relationship
is genuine and you intend to marry and live together as spouses. You will need to
provide the range of documentation to prove that your relationship is established
and genuine (letters, air tickets, tickets to concert and other activities you attended together, phone bills, photos together and photos of the engagement, etc - the
more documents you present, the better). You will also need to provide assurance
of financial support for your wife to be, so the migrant will not rely on any
Government form of support. You must be engaged to be married and wish to
marry in Australia within 9 months from the date of issuance of the visa. Both
Australian citizens and permanent residents can apply for a prospective marriage
temporary visa.
11. Children of prospective marriage temporary visa applicants under 18 years old
should be included in the application and will receive visas to Australia together
with their mothers.
12. If you are legally married to an Australian citizen (marriage in your country or any
other foreign country), you are eligible for a spouse migrant visa. Dependent
children of spouse migrant visas applicants should be included in the application
and will also receive visas, if the mother's application is approved.
13. For South Africans you could send a personal letter of invitation to your lady to
receive a visa. If you are honest and provide the embassy with the correct details,
then they could approve your application within a few days. It is best to apply for a 3
month visa. When your lady comes down you can spend some time to get to know
each other better. You can then file for temporary residence and later for
permanent residence. All that is required is proof of income from the sponsor and
proof of cohabitation.
14. Generally, the better your financial situation, the easier you will get the visa for your
fiancee. It will also help if she is a high class professional and holds a degree.
15. You can also decide to marry in Russia, and then apply for a spouse visa for your
wife. In the case of Russian marriage, you will need to produce a legal document
that you are free to marry, certified document of your legal address, birth certificate,
divorce certificate (or death certificate) if you were married before, and your
passport. All documents, except for the passport, should be legalized, notarized,
and have a copy translated to Russian by a certified translator.
16. Most women moving to foreign countries are worried about being completely
dependent on their husbands. It is humiliating for a woman to ask money for
purchases every time, when she is used to working and having her own income.
First months after her arrival she definitely will not be able to work because of the
problems with language. The best idea is to open a bank account in her name
where she can have a debit card, and every month put some money on this
account ($200-300 a month will be sufficient; if your lady had higher income in Russia, you should compensate her former income). Do not ask how she spends the money and do not check her statements. Tell her about this arrangement before she arrives.
17. Several Tier One agencies offer elaborate yet useful Marriage Support services.
For example one innovative feature offered is the “Orientation Package”. If your
fiancй will be coming to 75 Jefferson Lane, Portland Oregon, then a package is put
together detailing what the area is like, the people, location of shops, location of
other facilities, distance to amenities, things to consider and also considers
pictures. The package also consists of Russian lessons for the man and English
lessons for the women.
18. When your fiancee received her visa, buy her return ticket, so she is not worried
sick that she will be stuck with you if you are not compatible. Everything that makes
a woman feel secure is beneficial for your relationship. You will be able to receive a
partial refund for the non-used part of the ticket, if it was purchased in your country
(you pay at home, and she will be able to pick up the ticket in the office of the air
company at her country).
19. Adaptation: when she arrives, don't be surprised if she is not very affectionate and
does not seem very happy. Please understand she had to leave her homeland, her
family and friends behind, and this makes her feel sad. She is still unsure if
everything will work out for you and her. The process of receiving the visa is also
very stressful and frustrating, and she may simply be tired. Let her rest and relax, and in a couple of weeks she will be a different person. Be kind and patient with her.
20. Things that Russians are not used to: asking "How are you?" when meet (they only
say "Hello" in Russia, then go ahead); saying "Thank you" for any help or service,
especially at shops; smiling without a reason; buying groceries only once a week;
wearing street shoes at home; the wedding protocol; credit cards and checks; paid
medical aid; insurance policies; private pension funds. Explain to her everything in
detail - she will hesitate to ask. She will be thankful that you care enough to make
her understand everything
21. Encourage her to spend as much time as possible with other people. Ask your
family to ask her for help in choosing gifts for Christmas, arranging a birthday party,
babysitting, shopping etc. Ask your church if they don't need help with some
projects. People should not offer to help her - she will decline; they must ask her to
help them. The more time she spends with people, the faster she will adapt.
22. Remind your fiance to bring her Russian English dictionary from Russia and other
books that can help her find necessary words if she will need to say something or
understand an issue.
23. Sign her up for ESL courses - this way she will meet other people whose English is
not perfect, and will not feel too bad about her own poor English. As soon as her
English improves (usually within 6-8 months), she will become much more outgoing
and sociable.
24. Do not press her to attend a Russian church (only if she wants to) or make friends
with other Russian people. Russian people that immigrate to the USA (or another
country) on their own do not like Russian women that marry Americans because
they think the women get it "too easy" while they had to struggle. The best Russian
friends for her will be other Russian women married to men from your country. They
will be able to advise her on many things that they already have gone through.
25. The process does not look easy, but by following our advice above and just following your heart and common sense, it will become a reality.
