How to get Russian citizenship for a foreigner?

More and more foreigners are mastering the space of our country. Some of them would like to stay here and become full citizens of Russia. Let's see how to obtain Russian citizenship to a citizen of Ukraine, Kazakhstan, America and other countries. There are a number of requirements and rules, observing which, you can easily fulfill your desire. However, it should be understood that if a foreigner has decided to undergo the entire procedure, he will be forced to renounce the citizenship of his country. However, certain fines in refusing this procedure have not yet been established.

If a foreigner has a desire to formalize Russian citizenship, then first obtain an official paper authorizing Temporary residence. This document provides an opportunity to temporarily stay in the country until the moment when the residence permit is received . Required papers are submitted to the RWP in the presence of a visa (any, except tourist).

There are some reasons why it is easier to formalize Russian citizenship. These include:

• Presence of relatives - citizens of our country;
• Marriage with a Russian citizen, lasting not less than three years;
• Not less than 250 thousand dollars of investments into the economy of our country;
• The presence of a USSR passport, where a residence permit is indicated on the territory of Russia;
• Presence of a certificate of service in the ranks of our army;
• Presence of the diploma of the Russian high school;
• The status of a forced migrant or refugee.

Approximately twelve months after the RWP was received, the necessary documentation for a residence permit should be submitted. However, if there is a registered marriage with a resident of Russia, then you can do it right away. Most likely, the FMS with a foreigner will require a certificate of absence of criminal record on the territory of the Russian Federation and in his homeland, as well as a document indicating sources of income. It is worth knowing that to issue a residence permit should be as soon as possible, since the RWP is issued for three years, and then is not renewed.

In order to obtain Russian citizenship, the foreigner will need to get a job in the territory of our state. However, after receiving the above securities, It will work only in the region where the document was received.

What is necessary to take further or how to obtain Russian citizenship to a citizen of Kazakhstan? For the purpose of employment it will be necessary to obtain a work permit.

According to the Federal Law, a foreigner must reside on the territory of our state continuously for at least five years from the date of registration of the residence permit. This requirement is considered fulfilled if the person has not left the country for more than three months in one calendar year.

After five years of residence on the territory of our state behind, a foreigner can file documents with the Federal Migration Service and proudly obtain Russian citizenship. Finally, I want to draw your attention to the fact that the future Russian citizen will have to present evidence that he speaks Russian and passed the appropriate testing.
