Maria Sinitsyna
Moscow (North-West District), 2025 — residence permit refusal
I had an issue with a residence permit denial. I’m glad I turned to Elena Shilina — she explained the mistakes I had made and helped me fix everything. The documents were resubmitted and approved. I’m very grateful for her support and personal involvement.
Arman Arutyunyan
Lyubertsy, 2025 — lifting an entry ban
When I was denied entry to Russia, I was in shock. It turned out the ban was due to an old administrative error. I didn’t know where to turn until friends recommended this firm. Vasily Alexandrovich carefully reviewed my papers, explained the process, and helped gather all the required documents. The complaint was filed within two weeks, and a month later the ban was lifted. I’m deeply grateful for helping me return to my family — it meant the world to me.
Olga Vladimirovna
Korolyov, 2024 — obtaining citizenship
I never thought citizenship could be granted so quickly when everything is properly arranged. Alena Melikhova handled my case, helped collect the missing documents, and guided me through every step. Everything worked out perfectly. I’m truly thankful.
Makhmud Rakhimov
Moscow, 2024 — obtaining citizenship
I want to thank Grigory Sergeevich Nosov for his competent assistance in obtaining citizenship. I started collecting the documents myself but made several mistakes. He reviewed everything, rebuilt the application, and attached all the necessary evidence. Three months later, I received the approval notice. Everything went smoothly, without stress or unnecessary costs. Now I have my citizenship and can live and work freely. Thank you for that.
Elena Smirnova
Krasnogorsk, 2024 — residence permit refusal and appeal
My husband and I applied for a residence permit and were refused for a formal reason. The migration office gave us no explanation. We turned to Evgeniya Loginova and immediately felt her professionalism. She carefully reviewed our case, helped us prepare new documents, and filed an appeal. The review went quickly, and in the end, we received our residence permits. Evgeniya was always in touch and emotionally supportive. Thank you for your patience and care — we couldn’t have done it without you.
Ulugbek Sharipov
Podolsk, 2024 — appeal of residence permit refusal
I work in Moscow and had long wanted to get a residence permit but was refused. On a friend’s advice, I turned to Alena Aleksandrovna Melikhova. She reviewed my case and said we had every chance. She handled the paperwork properly and filed the complaint on time. We didn’t expect it to resolve so quickly — within a month, the decision was positive. I’m grateful for her honesty and efficiency. Few lawyers are like her. I highly recommend this firm.
Natalya Vasilievna
Balashikha, 2025 — residence permit for husband
Our situation wasn’t simple: my husband isn’t a Russian citizen, and we had already been denied once. We reached out to Elena Leonidovna Shilina. She examined the documents, helped prepare the correct certificates, and personally oversaw the submission. Thanks to her, everything went through without mistakes, and two months later the residence permit was issued. Elena Leonidovna is both a strong lawyer and a very kind person. We’re so glad we found her — with her, everything feels secure. Thank you from our whole family.
Hasan Kurbanov
Reutov, 2024 — lifting an entry ban
I was banned from entering Russia due to an expired registration, unable to reach my wife and children. I turned to Grigory Sergeevich Nosov, who immediately said we’d fight it. He prepared everything, helped with the complaint, and filed it in the right office. Through court, we managed to lift the ban. Now I’m back in Moscow with my family. Thank you for your honesty, respect, and real help — you didn’t just act as a lawyer, you helped save my family.
Sergey Viktorovich
Korolyov, 2025 — residence permit through marriage
I decided to apply for a residence permit through marriage. I tried to handle it myself but got lost in the process. After consulting with Elena Leonidovna, I realized I was in good hands. She explained everything clearly, helped gather the documents, and even submitted them for me. I got my residence permit on the first try without refusal. I’m very grateful for her precision, patience, and straightforward approach. A true professional.
Gulnara Akhmedova
Lyubertsy, 2024 — permanent residence after residence permit
I already had a residence permit and was ready to apply for permanent residency but was afraid of making another mistake after a previous rejection. I contacted this firm and was very lucky to work with Alena Aleksandrovna Melikhova. She explained the process in detail, double-checked all the papers, and found errors in my form. Thanks to her attentiveness and experience, everything went smoothly, and two months later I received my permanent residency. I’m very grateful for her help, clarity, and professionalism.
Oksana Fedorova
Moscow, 2025 — consultation and assistance with citizenship
I sought advice on obtaining citizenship and was assisted by Elena Leonidovna Shilina. She patiently listened to my situation and explained everything clearly and simply. I’m not a lawyer and would have easily gotten confused on my own. She helped gather the required documents, complete the forms, and accompanied the submission. I really appreciated the respectful and calm communication. I’ve already received a positive decision and am very happy.
Malika Rakhimova
Khimki, 2025 — lifting an entry ban
I was denied entry to Russia when I arrived to see my husband — I didn’t even know a ban had been placed. I was in tears and completely shocked. My husband found this firm, and we worked with Grigory Sergeevich Nosov. He spoke to me calmly, said we’d resolve it, and handled the paperwork and complaint. Within three weeks, I was back in Moscow. I still can’t believe it worked. Thank you for your kindness and help — I couldn’t have done it without you.

We answer your questions (FAQ's)
A TRP is the first step toward legalizing the stay of a foreign citizen in Russia. Obtaining a TRP gives you the right to officially live and work in the region where the permit is issued, without the need to apply for a work patent.

To get a TRP, you must submit an application to the Ministry of Internal Affairs office at your intended place of residence, attaching your passport, photos, proof of income, and a medical certificate. For certain categories, there is a simplified procedure: for spouses of Russian citizens, participants of the State Resettlement Program, and those born in the RSFSR.

It is important to understand that TRP quotas are limited, so proper preparation of documents and timely submission greatly increase your chances.

Migration issues in Russia are among the most complex and confusing. A single mistake in paperwork can lead to refusal, an entry ban, or even deportation. In this article, we explain how a migration lawyer helps foreign nationals and their families obtain TRP, PRP, and citizenship, appeal decisions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, lift entry bans, and stop deportation.

Migration Lawyer: Helping Foreigners in Russia

Who is a migration lawyer and why do you need one?
Migration law in Russia is complex and constantly changing. A single mistake in paperwork can cost you months of waiting, a refusal, or even an entry ban. A migration lawyer is a specialist who helps foreigners legalize their stay in Russia, obtain a Temporary Residence Permit (TRP), Permanent Residence Permit (PRP), and citizenship, as well as defend against deportation and appeal decisions of migration authorities.

A lawyer does more than paperwork. Their task is to analyze your unique situation, find the optimal path, and see it through to the result. For some, that means obtaining PRP, for others — lifting an entry ban, and for others — appealing deportation in court.

What issues do clients most often face?
Obtaining TRP
A Temporary Residence Permit is the first step toward legalization. But quotas are limited, and even minor mistakes in applications or medical certificates almost always lead to refusal. A lawyer knows how to gather and file documents correctly.

Obtaining PRP
A Permanent Residence Permit grants broader rights: the ability to live in any region, work without restrictions, access healthcare, and apply for social benefits. We support the process from filing to receiving the document.

Russian Citizenship
For many, this is the ultimate goal. There are simplified procedures for spouses of Russian citizens, parents of Russian children, and participants in the resettlement program. A lawyer will guide you through the right pathway and help avoid refusal.

Entry Ban
One of the most painful problems. Entry bans may be imposed for overstaying, unpaid fines, or errors in documents. Importantly, they can be lifted. This requires filing a complaint with the Ministry of Internal Affairs or a lawsuit in court.

Deportation and Removal
Even if a deportation order has already been issued, it can still be appealed — especially if the foreigner has family, Russian children, or long-term residence. The key is to act quickly and competently.

Refusals of TRP, PRP, and Citizenship
Most often, refusals result from improper paperwork. But refusals can be appealed, proving that the authority made an error or overlooked important circumstances.

Why work with a lawyer instead of handling it yourself?
  • Laws and regulations change constantly. What worked last year may now lead to refusal.
  • Many foreigners don’t know about their right to appeal — but complaints to the Ministry of Internal Affairs or the court often change the outcome.
  • A single mistake in paperwork can delay the process for months. Fixing errors later is far more costly than doing it right from the start.
  • Lawyers have practical experience: they know which arguments migration authorities accept — and which they ignore.
How we work
  • Free consultation: we review your documents and explain your chances.
  • Case analysis: we determine the best path (TRP, PRP, citizenship, appeal of entry ban).
  • Preparation: we gather the complete set of documents.
  • Representation: we assist during submission or represent you in court.
  • Result: from obtaining a permit to canceling a deportation order.
Why choose Yalanji & Partners
  • 15 years of experience and over 3,000 successful migration cases.
  • Nationwide service: in-person and remote support.
  • Narrow specialization in migration law.
  • Transparent pricing with installment options and no extra fees.
  • First consultation — free of charge.
Migration issues are always stressful. They affect not just your right to stay in Russia, but also your family, work, and children’s future. Mistakes are unacceptable here. A migration lawyer helps you move faster, avoid refusals, and defend your rights in even the most difficult situations.
