Which type of visas will my children need?

+1 vote
My wife is a Russian citizen with a green card. Our two children (less than 18 years old) are U.S. citizens. They want to visit Russia (Crimea) to visit family. They would like to stay 45-60 days. Would a tourist visa be possible for our children?

You need to get tourist visas for your children. As US citizens they may be able to get a 3-year visa, so just get the invitation on http://waytorussia.net/Travel/VisaSupport.html for 30 days and then apply for a 3-year visa. This should work.
