Packages in the USA
A set of services for one moment in life — cheaper than the same services purchased separately. Every package is itemized line by line; prices are in USD and all-inclusive. USCIS and State Department fees are not buried inside our price and we do not mark them up: they are listed as separate figures, paid directly authority, and you see the receipts.
On January 21, 2026, the State Department suspended the issuance of immigration visas to citizens of 75 countries, and Russia is on that list. Applications accept applications, schedule and conduct interviews — but do not issue the visa. Non-immigrant visas (B1/B2, F-1, O-1, L-1) are not affected by the pause. That means the path the market keeps selling — ’apply and wait’ consulate» — it now fails to go through to the end, no matter how flawless the matter. Exactly two workarounds exist: a status change within the US if you are already in the country on a valid status, and a second passport from a country not on the list. We check both and tell you which applies to you — before you commit to anything you will pay. No end date has been set for the pause, so we keep your passport we check against the current list as of the date of your enquiry.
I’m heading to the US: applying for a B1/B2 visa
From an honest assessment of your chances to the day of the interview
A visa is decided not by a folder of documents, but by two things: the trail already on record o you in US databases, and how you answer at the interview. Date in I-94, not in the visa. A 214(b) refusal from five years ago. Expired per month the days that have already started counting as unlawful presence. We start with an assessment of your chances and speak plainly about whether it is worth applying now, and then we handle the entire submission through to the day you walk out of the consulate.
- We pull your footprint in the system: I-94 and actual days of presence, past refusals under 214(b), accumulated unlawful presence and proximity to 3- and 10-year bans, the fate of the old green card, if there was one
- We assess your chances before you pay to apply: the purpose of your trip, visa history, ties to home, risks of a 214(b) denial
- We find the right consulate: Russian nationals apply in Warsaw or Astana, and the B1/B2 queue in Astana has reached up to two years
- We complete the DS-160 entirely ourselves, rather than reviewing one you have already filled in

As a family
Flat rate for up to four people, not per head
A family in the US is counted differently from how the market counts it. Consular fee $185 paid by each person, including infants; the I-485 fee of $1,440 — by everyone aged 14 and over, and a school, bank, and driver’s license are needed by everyone at once. We charge a flat fee per family of up to four person and we name each fee individually so the budget does not unravel by the fifth invoice.
- We check whether your path leads to a visa given the pause on immigration visa issuance Russian citizens from January 21, 2026 — and if not, we build it through a change of status within the US or via a second passport under the current State Department list
- We review each adult’s record separately: refusals and overstays are not inherited, but they don’t disappear either
- We calculate the fees by name: consular fee USD 185 per person, I-485 USD 1,440 from age 14, work authorization separately
- We file for the whole family in one package: dependent statuses, children, deadlines
- and also 3
First week in America
SSN, bank account, phone, address, and school — within the first seven days
America is set up so that without one document you cannot get another: the bank asks SSN requires an address, the address requires a lease, the lease requires credit — history that you do not yet have. We know the order in which this circle unlocks, and we walk through it with you in a week rather than three months.
- SSN application submitted in the correct order and at the right office — or ITIN, if you are not eligible for an SSN
- Personal bank account without a credit history: we find you a bank that will open an account for a non-resident
- A US phone number and mailing address for incoming post
- Renting without a credit history: how the screening works and what can replace it
- and also 3
First documents: SSN, ITIN, driver’s licence, bank
The full package that makes you visible to the system
A US state licence is not just a driving document — it is the primary ID you you prove who you are: without them you cannot open an account, rent housing, or find employment to work. SSN is not a “pension number” — it’s the key to everything else. We we handle the full set of documents in the correct order.
- SSN: filing, support, and tracking — or ITIN via W-7 if you are not eligible for an SSN
- State driver’s licence: booking, theory preparation, and a breakdown of your state’s specific rules
- Personal bank account and first credit card to start building your credit history from scratch
- Document translation and notarization
- and also 2
Staying long-term: changing status from within
Green card through family or without an employer — without getting stuck in limbo
From 21 January 2026, immigration visas are no longer issued to Russian nationals: the application they accept, conduct an interview, and deny the visa. That means the route the market continues to sell — ’we file and wait for the consulate’ — currently leads nowhere. Another route applies: if you are already in the US on a valid status, a green card done by changing status within the country, with no consular stage.
- We check whether your path leads to a visa given the pause on immigration visa issuance Russian citizens from January 21, 2026 — and if not, we build it through a change of status within the US or via a second passport under the current State Department list
- We pull your footprint in the system: I-94 and actual days of presence, past refusals under 214(b), accumulated unlawful presence and proximity to 3- and 10-year bans, the fate of the old green card, if there was one
- We compile a complete evidence file: documents, translations, references, confirmations
- We find a licensed lawyer suited to your case and work alongside them
- and also 3
Self-employed: LLC and a talent visa
A company in three days — or status based on achievements
A company in the US can be set up in one to three days, and you don’t need an SSN, nor status: an LLC is registered by a non-resident online. But the company does not provide status, and this must be understood before, not after. Status is granted by the O-1 talent visa — and this is the only work-based category that requires no employer and does not run into a pause, because it is non-immigrant.
- We check whether your path leads to a visa given the pause on immigration visa issuance Russian citizens from January 21, 2026 — and if not, we build it through a change of status within the US or via a second passport under the current State Department list
- Choosing the right state of registration for your needs — state filing fees range from 50–800 $, and they vary
- LLC registration, obtaining EIN and ITIN if required
- Company bank account and accountant search

Buying my own place: starting with the state
In Texas a Russian citizen cannot, in Florida — not everywhere
The US is the only country in the range where the right to purchase property depends not on the country, but on the state, and where a Russian citizen is named explicitly in the law. In Texas, SB 17 has been in effect since September 1, 2025: the purchase of any real estate prohibited, and violation is a state criminal offence. In Florida, SB 264 prohibits agricultural land and anything within ten miles of military facilities. That is why we the background check comes first, and finding the property comes second.
- ⚠️ We check the state and the specific plot for restrictions on Russian citizens before any deposit is paid
- We cover the exceptions: on a student or work visa in Texas, one home for personal use is permitted
- Finding a property and verifying title
- Mortgage and financing for non-residents: what is realistically available and at what rate
- and also 2
Urgent: lost status and asylum
When the clock of unlawful presence is already running
Unlawful presence begins the day after the date on the I-94 — not in the visa. After 180 days, overstaying turns into a three-year entry ban upon entry, and after a year it converts to a ten-year one. Most people find out about this only when too late. We calculate your timeline, tell you the deadline by which there’s still the options, and we walk through what can be done.
- We pull your footprint in the system: I-94 and actual days of presence, past refusals under 214(b), accumulated unlawful presence and proximity to 3- and 10-year bans, the fate of the old green card, if there was one
- We check whether your path leads to a visa given the pause on immigration visa issuance Russian citizens from January 21, 2026 — and if not, we build it through a change of status within the US or via a second passport under the current State Department list
- We calculate your accumulated unlawful presence in days and name the date after which the ban becomes a ten-year one
- We identify which reinstatement paths are open: status change, reinstatement, or I-601A forgiveness

A child born in the USA: getting the documents in order
State certificate, SSN, U.S. passport, apostille — 1,500 $
A child born on US soil is a US citizen: on June 30, 2026 The Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship in a 6–3 ruling. However, on 6 August a decree ordering an end to birth tourism and explicitly authorizing action against companies selling birth tourism trips. That is why we do not sell the trip — for any amount of money. We handle documents for a child who has already been born.
- State birth certificate — timelines vary: from two to six weeks, depending on the state
- SSN for a child
- US passport for a child
- Apostille on a certificate

Green card through investment (EB-5)
From $800,000 per project — plus an assessment of whether this route actually leads to a visa
US citizenship for money does not exist. What exists is a green card through investment EB-5: from $800,000 invested in a project in a Targeted Employment Area and ten jobs created. Yet here too, everything comes down to the pause in effect since 21 January 2026: for a Russian national immigration visa will not be issued right now. So the first step is flagship — not an investment, but an analysis of how your case actually reaches to the result.
- We check whether your path leads to a visa given the pause on immigration visa issuance Russian citizens from January 21, 2026 — and if not, we build it through a change of status within the US or via a second passport under the current State Department list
- We cover two ways around the pause: a status change within the US and a second passport from the State Department’s current list
- Project search and fund verification: reputation, repayment history, deal structure
- Proving the lawful origin of funds — the hardest part of the case

The child is starting school
School is free and has no right to ask about your status
State schools in the US are free for all children, and by the Supreme Court’s ruling court ruling of 1982, it may not ask about a child’s immigration status or parents. Almost no one knows this, and it costs people an academic year. Our job isn’t to ’get your child into a school’ — it’s to choose the right school district, because in the USA, the residential address determines the school.
- School district search: in the US, your address determines your school — so choosing a neighbourhood is choosing a school
- Enrolment in a state school and guidance on required documents
- The state vaccination schedule: what is required and what to do if your home schedule differs
- Translation and recognition of grades, certificates, and transcripts
- and also 2
Renewing status and tracking I-94
The I-94 date catches up with everyone — it is only a matter of when
Status in the US is always time-limited, and it expires not when the visa runs out, and when the date on the I-94 arrives. The following day, unlawful presence — after 180 days abroad, departure turns into a three-year ban. We track your date: we remind you in advance, submit the renewal on time and make sure so that no gap arises.
- We track your I-94 date and alert you well in advance, not after the fact
- Filing an extension or change of non-immigrant status — Form I-539
- We assess whether status is maintained during the review period and what to do if there is a gap
- We check whether your path leads to a visa given the pause on immigration visa issuance Russian citizens from January 21, 2026 — and if not, we build it through a change of status within the US or via a second passport under the current State Department list

Visa in the USA
Grounds selection and document package
A refusal almost never comes out of nowhere: it’s a matter of the grounds, proof of finances, or how the person performs at the interview. All of this can be addressed before you apply.
- Grounds selection based on your actual situation, not your preferred outcome
- Document checklist tailored to the specific consulate
- Package and proof-of-funds check before filing
- Finding an appointment slot and interview preparation

Prices are in US dollars and are all-inclusive — nothing is added on top. USCIS and State Department government fees are paid separately and directly to the authority: we state their amounts and show the receipts. Sales tax in the US is set by the state and city, so we do not quote it as a we don’t hide anything — the price you see is the final price. Prices are listed by the country where the rate has been confirmed: in the USA composition, documents and rules of their own, and the cost is calculated separately.
Housing rental and purchase, documents, bank accounts and taxes, schooling, driving licence — 30 services in the USA, each has its own price.
SVOY initial consultation — 150 $, credited toward the cost support. This is a situation review and a roadmap, not legal consultation: only licensed professionals may charge for US immigration law advice t only a licensed attorney, and we make that distinction. For comparison: Russian-speaking lawyers in the USA offer consultations from $250.
Need a single service, not a package

How the US differs from the eleven countries where we already work
- Immigration visas are not currently being issued to Russian citizens. From 21 January 2026, issuance has been suspended for nationals of 75 countries, and Russia is on the list. You can apply and attend an interview, but receiving a visa — no. Non-immigrant visas work. Which means the deciding factor is not the quality folders, but whether your path reaches its end: from within the country by changing status or via a second passport. We treat this as the first step, not the last.
- There is no mass-market residence permit here. In Spain, Georgia, Cyprus, and Argentina you can submit, pay and get the card. In the US, status is always temporary and always conditional. That’s why the lineup answers four other questions: how to enter, how to keep your status, how to change it from within, and how to fix a damaged history.
- The count starts from the I-94, not from the visa date. These are different dates, and almost everyone confuses them. Unlawful presence starts the day after the date on your I-94: 180 days and you must leave — ban on entry for three years, one year — ten years. We pull up your record in the system before you pay anything.
- Our core service is state-licensed. Only a licensed attorney may represent a person before USCIS for a fee the state or an accredited representative of the Ministry of Justice — Article 8 CFR 292.1, violations are prosecuted. That is why we divide work: the assessment, documents, evidence file, and the landing are on us, and the application is signed by a licensed practitioner, and you know eir name from day one. You won’t find the words ’we apply on your behalf’ here.
- We do not sell birth tourism trips. Birthright citizenship remains intact: the Supreme Court confirmed it on 30 June 2026 by a 6–3 ruling. But on 6 August an executive order was signed directing the cessation of r birth tourism and explicitly permits action against companies selling such trips. We handle the documents for a child who already born — and this is legal, necessary, and costs $1,500.
- Buying property is not available everywhere or to everyone. The only country in the network where a Russian citizen is named in the law by name. Texas, from September 1, 2025, prohibits them from purchasing virtually any real estate transaction — this is a criminal offence under state law. Florida prohibits agricultural land and anything within ten miles of a military base of properties. Miami is Florida. That’s why we start with due diligence the state and district, and then finding you a property.
- A visa costs more than the fee — but not because of the fee. The consular fee of $185 is exactly $185 — websites don’t mislead you on this one. It is steep other: the US Embassy in Moscow does not issue visas; you need to apply in Warsaw or Astana, and the B1/B2 queue in Astana stretched to two years. The real cost of the visa is the flight to the border post, accommodation during submission and a secured appointment slot. That is why our work begins with selecting the consular post, not with the application form.
- School is free and doesn’t ask about your status. Under a 1982 Supreme Court ruling, a public school may not deny a child based on immigration status and may not demand documents confirming their status. Almost no one knows this, and as a result tery lose an academic year. School assignment in the USA is determined by address — which is why our work here starts with choosing a school district.
