Any comments from anyone on this?
Re Immigration Visas costs!
Give me(and us) proof to stay way from there!!!
John Howard wants foreigners to pledge loyalty to country!(Australia) totally!
What hope do Ukr Russians have then!!!!

Im more concerned about getting a visa into the Ukraine. It gets a bit tedious after awhile. Last time I got a 1yr multiple entry cultural exchange visa. Anyone know how to get a permant residency visa in Ukrine?
I'm more concerned that an Australian is a Kiwi and a Kiwi is an Australian, obviously written by an Australian else it would be Aussies & Kiwis or Australians & New Zealanders :)
yes us kiwis don't like to be grouped with them. but he has a point, it would be hard for aussies with the new requirements. their girls are going to have to pass some sort of test on australia. although if the FSU girl replaces "yes" with "no worries" for answers it will surely help and well as addressing the interviewer by his Australian name by taking the first 2 letters of his name and adding a "zza" to the end
gemini yeah the invitation/visas are a pain. Dunno how to get a year one unless you have business of there. (but lucky for me i can get an EU passport, which i knew that 2 years ago).
And by referring to a 4x4 as a 'fourbie', a pick-up truck as a 'ute', a container of beer as a 'tinnie' or a 'stubby', a beer bottle holder as a 'stubby holder' and Kylie Minogue as 'who?' :)
BEN YOUR A KIWI ?? god why would a kiwi go to russia / ukraine for ? i could not imagine the girls being interested in a kiwi - my god ! kiwi be counting his change all day moaning if he spent 500 rubles !!
What could a kiwi offer an FSU GIRL ??? HMM leg of lamb with love bites all over it ?
mybe a pair of jandels ?? lol -
Kiwi can offer a ruskie about the same as they already have -poverty !
Leave it to the aussies mate and some usa folk and a few decent poms at least they can take em out for a night and pay the bill --but MRS CLARKS BRIGADE ohh i dont know about that --- stay home with the sheep mate .
Mike
you talk too much . You will be another aussie who comes back here with a sad hard luck story. yours will be worser than most... "selling up an going to Russia"?? you are insane
Vanechka.....do I detect a tinge of jealousy?
Mike has been there...done it...worn the shirt,and quite obviously knows what he is doing.seems to me the only hard luck stories here usually have your name in front of them!!
Why would I be jealous. I know Russian woman backwards. I know their phsyche . I know how they think of western men ..... I travel yearly to ukraine from Australia and I have never and will never marry a russian woman .I am more experient than all of you put together on this topic.. Russian woman obviously wont stay in another country for long and its even more dangerous living in theirs... wait till the money runs out and I bet she will revert back to her multiple Russian bfs.. Yes you can all abuse me again ... You all live in hope. Sure if you are all 70 year old men living up your final years blow your money .. But to any young guy stay away ..
Wake up ... Stop listening to people like martin
Australian blokes stop dreaming about Russian/FSU brides..the requirements for a fiance visa ( prospective spouse sub-class 300 visa ) AND this is the only visa you can get for a foreign girl (NO VISITORS/ TOURIST VISAS will ever be issued to a single FSU / Russian girl ) are too tight.
85% OF FIANCE VISAS FOR AUSTRALIAN MALE applicants for a Russian/Ukrainian or other FSU country bride will get rejected. Often reason is "insufficient proof a relationship exists to substantiate that a marriage will occur after the visa is issued" or very small irregularities in her paperwork, failed police clearance, failed health check etc.
All applications for fiance visas for all Russia/FSU female applicants go through are only embassy in the region in Moscow and its understaffed, very judgemental and very picky at who it lets through..its shocking!
The cost of the Fiance Visa application is about $1300 AUD plus $300 AUD or more for medical checks for her plus cost of police clearance certificate from her country ( takes months to get it as they are slow an in no hurry and if you want it quick be prepared to pay a lot in bribes to officials to move things along ) plus other paperwork so it will cost something like $2000 AUD to apply for the visa and if rejected you get none of your money back!
To lodge an appeal over a rejection costs another $2500 aud plus cost of an migration lawyer or attorney to represent you and her at Migration Appeals Tribunal in Australia and cases take 6 months or longer to be heard.
This on top of the 7 to 12 months it takes Moscow to process a fiance visa application.
Australian government and Department of Immigration are shits to deal with..its all shit!
Cost of a personal visit to her by a man from Australia will cost $10,000 aud or more, so all up you can do the personal trip, pay for a fiance visa application, pay for an appeal (50% of appeals will fail ), pay for a lawyer and still not get her to Australia and be out of pocket $20,000 aud..all for nothing!
AUSTRALIAN MEN FORGET ABOUT RUSSIAN BRIDES..DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME AND THERE TIME AS WELL.
Our migration system is fooked!
Vanechka your so called experience is an idle boast. Your assumption about peoples motives for visiting these countries and the their criteria for being happy are flawed. It takes a lot longer for money to run out in FSU. If someone likes the lifestyle there is no reason they cant be successful in developing a sustainable lifestyle there. There are no shortages of flash cars, flash apartments and money in Ukraine or Russia. Just need to tap into it. I havent been back to Australia fo 2 years and couldnt care if didnt go back for another 10. Why would a Russian woman feel any different if they are happy in the country they go to?
Vanechka.....any abuse that is flung your way is entirely of your own making.Be cautious yes,but negativity to the point of paranoia that you display is the main reason so many react to your posts the way they do.
As for being more experienced that all of us put together on the subject of russian women.........words fail me.
Take your advice somewhere else

Mike, yes i am a kiwi. I'm not poor either, I'm in the UK earning pounds not your south pacific peso's buddy. Even when i was in NZ i was earning twice what joe average aussie makes.
I can just picture you in russia, in shorts and jandels and a can of fosters in your hand laughing at your own jokes cause no one else will understand what your yabbering on about. I left NZ cos it was being run by Helen Clarke. Aussie isn't any better mind you. What about that Pauline Hanson bird! God help everyone if she runs the country.
I don't beleive for one second your girl is happy with the arrangement as you make out...or at least when your gone shes back with her boyfriend. I recall you posting that your girl wanted to go to turkey with a friend...hmm i wonder why!! I bet she got a pay increase out of you to change her mind.
I laugh at the way Vanechka travels to Ukraine each year but only seems to meet Russian and never Ukrainian. I also laugh at how 'it' decides that Russian women, that 'it' meets in Ukraine, think of all western men as one race whether they be American, Canadian, Brazilian,Icelandic, Swiss, British, Spanish, French, Japanese, Australian, Singaporean or whatever, yep, we're all the same and think the same way apparently :)
ben your a ''dill '' whom knows zero of russia get back to your coconuts you know the big beefy ones --bull heads in cook islands
mike 00
ps i dont entertain poverty encrusted kiwi's
waste of space
pass the hat around the island to raise a fare to russia for 1
