Re: Jeffrey Epstein Passport Exp.March 7, 2029
Dear Lesley,
I hear that NYC Consul General should be back from vacation on Thursday, Mar 14. Thank you,
Inna Baranova
Atlanta Operations Director
Country Information Coordinator, Russia
ok, thank you very
much for letting me
know. I will tell
Jeffrey.
Dear Lesley,
HOU will accept for
processing, however,
since the visa was
issued in NYC they
will need to await for
the NYC confirmation
whether HOU could
transfer the visa and,
if positive, how long
NYC will take to
authorize it.
Initially, the HOU
consulate requested
one new photo
(different from the
one on the 2018
visa), old cancelled
passport, new
passport, completed
and signed
application form (G3
can create it —
concierge fee would
apply) and visa
transfer fee $74.
Additional
documents may
apply once
submitted. Current
fastest processing
time 8 business days
in HOU — the waiting
time for
authorization may
add.
I did not hear back
from the consulate in
NYC so far.
Please do not
hesitate to contact
me if you have any
questions.
Thank you,
Inna Baranova

I have requested my colleagues in NYC to inquire too and we are still waiting on the consulate's response. I hope to have it by tomorrow, however, if they advise that they need to wait for the consul to return, we may not hear back until Friday.

HI Inna. Jeffrey has a second passport but needs to get a new one due to his status as registered sex offender. We will need to obtain this second valid passport before we can then try to transfer the Russian Visa. We will work with your Miami office again in securing this second valid passport, then come back to you! Just keeping you in the loop. I believe we will need to give you the valid 10 year passport to attach/transfer the Russian Visa to...as well as the below items.
Understood, thank you Lesley! Since the application form is required and if you would like G3 to prepare the online application form, would you like to start working on the questionnaire? I attach the instructions and G3 processing fees for you to review.
For the visa fee you can just indicate the fee as below on mult entry and write 'visa transfer' as service on the order form. Please let me know if you have any questions! Thank you,

Hi Irma...I've been thinking, since we need to go through the same paperwork to transfer this visa as we would need to do for a new visa...perhaps it is better to just request a brand new visa so it will be good for longer (4 full years instead of expiring in 2021). I don't know if there is a reason Jeffrey wishes to transfer the visa, but if not, what do you think? Better to get a new visa or transfer the one he has?
Dear Lesley,
For the new visa you will need to obtain a new invitation, thus, it will require additional paperwork and reaching out to people in Russia plus the visa fee is higher —198 versus 74.
