Russian Mom US Citizen Poland Interview date Schengen problem help!

[LoveTNLife 3]

The bs "War" in Ukraine is really making a mess of our plans.  We got through k1 and now Wifey is US Citizen and we sponsored her mom in Russia for Green Card, it was approved, she is our only relative we will sponsor and she hasn't been to US in 3 years due to COVID to see her grandkid, anyway- Interview is in Poland, she needs Shengen Visa I don't even know where to apply, the ivisa.com site looks sketchy and the embassy sites are not helpful.  Polish embassy is open in Moscow so that's good, but there are articles about being blocked https://notesfrompoland.com/2022/09/19/poland-and-baltic-states-enact-eu-visa-ben-for-russians/  Please help, we need Schengen to go to Poland for interview, from Russia..

 

A visa is required to travel to Poland but iVisa cannot provide it at this time.

I haven't seen this, however, we already requested the transfer to Almaty - thanks for the intel.  They said they changed it, but it didn't immediately reflect in the portal.

It's still showing Warsaw, although support @ us travel docs said it's updated to Kaz.  Does it take 2 weeks for the government computers to reboot?
