I finally got my US visa today, multiple entry, for two years! It took 11 days after the interview at the US Embassy in Moscow. Fun fact, they stapled the receipt right to my passport, hope that doesn’t render it illegal. Making travel plans for August and September :)

Good for you! I know exactly how you feel, got my visa approved four weeks ago – still waiting for the paperwork though :)
Where do you plan to live?
Thanks! I’m not moving anywhere, just travelling for a few weeks, somewhere in California :)
Congrats, Konstantin! :)
Thank you Renji!
Congrats Konstantin! I guess you’re planning on travelling there more than once with a 2 year visa?
Yes Brad, hoping for at least three times by the end of this year :)
Does that mean we’ll be seeing you at WCSF this year?
If everything goes as planned, yes :)
Congrats Konstantin. Sounds like a lot of hassle to get it, and I don’t really understand why someone should go through all this just to visit another country and especially a free one. I got mine 2 years ago with the first entry but my trip was canceled because of “outstanding issues”.
Anyway,
Cheers.
Thanks Kyriakos, yes, the US is not the easiest country for a Russian to travel to, but I heard both governments are working on it. It used to be even more difficult a few years ago.
