Every year, more and more citizens of Kazakhstan leave for Russia, especially since it is not so difficult to obtain Russian citizenship or forced migrant status. What to do if you decide to emigrate from Kazakhstan to Russia?

Instruction manual
1
Familiarize yourself with the laws and regulations governing immigration from Kazakhstan to the Russian Federation. A complete list of legislative acts is presented on the page:
2
Go to the passport office and inform its employees that you intend to leave Kazakhstan for permanent residence in the near future. Receive in the passport desk the forms of documents (application and petition for the issuance of the departure sheet, etc.), fill them out.
3
After about 3 weeks, you will receive a departure sheet in the same passport office, as well as a certificate stating that at the time of the collapse of the Soviet Union you were his citizen and were registered in the territory of the Kazakh SSR. Put a permit stamp on the Kazakh passport.
4
In the event that you have housing in one of the regions of Russia, you can safely leave Kazakhstan and go to this country for permanent residence. Of course, before that, you can try to apply for an immigration quota and go to the Russian Federation to live in the region proposed under the oralmans resettlement program, or under the Russian program for promoting the resettlement of compatriots (ethnic Russians). However, the queue for inclusion in the quota can be waited for several years, and assistance to compatriots from the Russian Federation and from individuals and organizations is, to put it mildly, not very active. So try to enlist the full support of faithful and worthy people in Russia in advance, who could help you find a temporary shelter, at least until you rent an apartment or sell your living space in Kazakhstan.
5
Upon arrival in Russia, contact the passport office and register at the place of residence (temporarily). Next, you will need to contact the FMS department and submit a Kazakh passport, after which you will be asked to fill out an application for Russian citizenship according to a simplified scheme. Within 3 months you can become a citizen of Russia.

If you have relatives in Russia, or you studied or served under a contract in the territory of the Russian Federation or the RSFSR, or you have merit to this country, then you have the opportunity to obtain Russian citizenship without leaving Kazakhstan at one of the Russian consulates.
