Moscow visitor visa interview questions
We are inviting my wife's mother to come to visit us here in
the US. She has an interview scheduled in Moscow in a few
weeks. What types of questions can she expect?
When they deny a visitor visa, do they usually do it after
you send in the application or do they usually make the
person come all the way to Moscow just to be denied there?

My guess is that the interview is a good sign. At least, they didn't
outright deny her, and that alone is a good sign. On the other hand,
unfortunately, the consulate doesn't care how far she has to travel - they
could still deny her.
In such cases, the consulate probably will primarily be looking for
evidence that your mother in law will return to Russia after her visit. If
she leaves a husband behind and has a stable job and owns a home, that
would go a long way towards getting her a visa.
