Speaker A
Our subscriber Lyubov from the state of California has reached out to our bureau. She writes that she has encountered a problem and would like to deregister from an apartment located in Russia. So, Lyubov and her son are still registered in Russia. Now she
00:15
Speaker A
would like to be removed from the registration records. The woman herself, our subscriber, and her son would also like to be removed from this registry. How can this be done without coming to Russia, since Lyubov is not
00:27
Speaker A
planning to go there? She also told us that her parents informed her that she can write an application, have it notarized here in America, send it to them, and they will then easily go to the necessary regulatory authorities,
00:42
Speaker A
which will surely deregister our subscriber. Is that actually the case? Let's try to help. And for this, licensed legal consultant Karina Duval is joining us right now. Karina, good evening.
00:55
Speaker A
Good evening. Thank you so much for joining us. It's a somewhat complicated story, but perhaps for you, it is all done very simply. Does Lyubov need to write this power of attorney for her parents, who can indeed go to the necessary offices
01:10
Speaker A
themselves and deregister her from the apartment? Well, first of all, please clarify the child's age, if it is known.
01:18
Speaker A
I think he is a minor. A minor. Different rules apply for minors. Minors from zero to 14 years old are deregistered together with their parents, and there is no need to take any applications from the child; the child follows their parent when
01:38
Speaker A
their place of residence changes. For a child from 14 to 18 years old, they write an application with the consent of one of the parents, requesting to be removed from the registry, and in this case, both their signature and the
01:57
Speaker A
presence of one of the parents are required. And it is mandatory for a child over 14 years old to have a passport. Not necessarily an internal one, but at least a foreign travel passport. The mother must also have a foreign travel
02:14
Speaker A
passport or an internal passport. One of the valid Russian passports. If there are suddenly no valid Russian passports, then they will not be able to deregister so easily. So, one application will not be enough. We are assuming that the passports exist. If
02:32
Speaker A
there are passports, then it is possible. But again, you can try it yourself. There are always, always two ways: turn to a professional or try it on your own. In principle, you risk nothing except for your time. If you
02:47
Speaker A
can or want to follow your mother's advice—to write an application, send it to Russia, see what happens, and then, if you don't get the desired result, turn to our office—we can handle your de-registration turnkey, with a guarantee that we won't be
03:06
Speaker A
refused, because our documents meet all legal requirements and comply with the Ministry of Internal Affairs regulations and internal instructions.
03:17
Speaker A
And we know what we are doing. That is, the documents are prepared in accordance with the rules, and they are submitted and function within Russia exactly as intended. But if we prepare the documents for you, and your mother
03:32
Speaker A
takes them to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, then again, you might end up paying money for documents. It's not a small amount, and they might simply send your mother where they usually send people.
03:45
Speaker A
Which is to the Russian consulate. That is, the destination very rarely changes. "Go there yourself." Most often, people, our representatives—your representatives of people living in America—most often hear this recommendation. "Contact the consulate.
04:03
Speaker A
" That would be a correct recommendation if it were possible to get an appointment there and if it were the only possible option. It is not the only possible option to get there. It is completely unrealistic. I heard a
04:15
Speaker A
figure that the queues at the Russian consulate now reach 50,000 people. Well, I don't know how objective that number is, but it is truly very large.
04:26
Speaker A
Therefore, if you want to act on your own, you must accept certain risks: that you will lose time, lose money, and that your mother will go and be refused. If you are interested in the result, then you can turn to our professional
04:46
Speaker A
office and get that result. And the third path for obtaining a guaranteed result is still the consulate, but for many, this option is not even an option at all.
04:56
Speaker A
Uh-huh. Karina, I wanted to clarify, you mentioned one of the valid passports. Are there, in principle, no other documents needed for de-registration?
05:06
Speaker A
Well, an application and a power of attorney are needed. A personal application: "I request to be de-registered in connection with such and such." And a power of attorney is needed that will allow the representative, firstly, to submit this
05:20
Speaker A
application, and secondly, to receive the result of the public service in the form of actual de-registration. So, well, three documents. If we are talking about an adult, that is; if it's a child, then there might be nuances—a birth certificate is
05:37
Speaker A
required, and it must have a stamp confirming the child's citizenship. Every case is individual.
05:44
Speaker A
It's not like you can tell someone: "Just get on these tracks, you'll keep going, going, going, and you'll arrive."
05:48
Speaker A
Well, unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. A million different forks in the road, a million different nuances, one wrong move, and you’ve gone in the wrong direction. Yes, we wouldn't want that; we need to reach the destination exactly. Therefore, in any
06:04
Speaker A
case, if someone has questions regarding real estate, powers of attorney—I mean in the countries you are from—if you need, I don't know, to inquire about any matters related to inheritance, for example, or even marriage and divorce. These are exactly
06:21
Speaker A
the issues Karina handles. But you can also write to us at any time via the Bureau's YouTube channel email. You will find the address in the description of this video. We also leave Karina's contact information there. So you can get in touch at any
06:33
Speaker A
time. And as is known, Karina always tries to respond as soon as possible. Thank you very much for the explanation. I hope we helped her son with love today. And now we are moving on to the next news. And we thank you. With us
06:46
Speaker A
was licensed legal consultant Karina Duval. Have a good evening. Thank you. Many people are mistaken and believe that you can only sell or buy an apartment back home by going through the consulate. But that is not the case.
07:03
Speaker A
Karina Duval will process all your documents quickly and professionally. In this office, they draft any power of attorney and help obtain birth, death, marriage, or divorce certificates. They can also advise you on how to quickly deregister your residency. And most
07:20
Speaker A
importantly, you won't even need to fly back home. Karina Duval's law office is located in a very convenient area of New York. It's in Brooklyn, the Sheepshead Bay area, Avenue Z. By the way, Russian-speaking residents from all states can receive legal assistance
07:39
Speaker A
here.
