I will email but I believe Uzbekistan has a small embassy like Armenia and the wait times would be insane Germany's wait time was 27 weeks, Armenia's was over a year so they flat out rejected us and said they're prioritizing citizens No one has replied to my transfer requests so far and I just feel so dejected about this all... Our noa2 and ds160 are approaching the 1 year mark and I don't know if it can be renewed further

Thanks for sharing your experiences everyone, it's especially frustrating because he's guaranteed going to miss his Warsaw interview and our case has already been renewed once by the Polish consulate. I'm worried the consulate won't renew it over 1 year. Besides paying for a new ds-160, are there any other problems with you not interviewing within a year of your noa2...? My fiance fled Russia in February and had to wait 6 months before being eligible to apply for a Schengen within his new country of residence (Armenia), so we had to push the interview back a LOT. I spent the day emailing countries with visa free travel for Russian nationals if they'll take our case... Fingers crossed Kazakhstan says yes... (Germany said they would take us but our Schengen got denied lol)

My fiance's Spanish schengen visa is single entry despite him asking for a multi-entry visa, even with his squeaky clean and extensive travel history with no visa violations So just FYI I guess this can happen I have no idea what we're going to do now

I have seen a lot of people report delays when they showed up to their interview in Poland with old, expired documents, and new documents which had to be verified or something. Has anyone shown up with a document that is maybe a few weeks expired, like a police form, or something like a year old income verification on the petitioner's end, and had an issue? I emailed the Polish embassy and they told me all me and my beneficiary had to do was write updated letters of intent. My bank statement and income verification are both a year old but still meet requirements. Will this cause an issue? Would I have to get new income verification? Additionally, my beneficiary's police certificate only lasted 6 months and is now expired. Apparently there is a backlog because many Russians are trying to obtain police records to leave the country so he is not sure if his new one will arrive in time. If he has a recently expired Russian police record but hasn't lived in Russia since, is that acceptable? (He can't exactly do crime in a country he hasn't lived in since the last police certificate was generated)
