Intersting case...so his Ukraine Visa is on an Indian passport. he has a US passport as well, question now is where is his entry into Ukraine stamped on Indian passport or US passport..?

Presuming his Indiam passport is stamped for entering Ukraine. It would be virtually impossible for Indiam embassy to grant Indian visa to a person having Indian passport in Ukraine.He may have issues returning to US.

But if he has entry on US passport then there should not be an issue in getting Indian Visa or for that matter PIO or OCI card at Ukraine.

Although like what namaste_cat said, he has to use the US passport because he's now a citizen and getting a 6 month to a 1 year tourist visa is the best option for him since his Indian passport is no good.

Oh I see, yes, that does make it tricky, eh. I'm not 100% sure on this but I think US citizens only need a visa if they're going to stay in Ukraine for more than 6 months. He will need his student visa to re-enter Ukraine, so he should go about getting a student visa transferred to his U.S. passport. It shouldn't be too hard.

I'd do that as a first step. Hopefully the people on campus there should be able to guide him. Then go to the Indian Embassy in Ukraine and get an Indian visa. After he returns from India, he can work on OCI/PIO as a long-term option.

Good luck to your friend, and hope you two have a great visit to India

Okay, NOW he said that he ONLY hold a US passport with his visa in it. I'm thinking, "What's up with him?" LOL! Anyway he did say that he's going to the Embassy later and apply for his student visa, so it's all good. I just got my passport back from the Chicago Embassy about 3 days ago with a 1 year visa stamped in there, so I'm getting excited. Now comes telling the parents which I'm a little nervous about doing. Just hope they approve!

Oh boy, your friend's a flaky one! Now we just need to make sure we know which doctor's office to stay out of when he gets his medical degree!

Have a great time in India, knt2000
