So, I need a tourist visa for the month before, when I will be travelling, and leaving Russia for a week in Kiev, Ukraine. Thus, I need two visas - the tourist visa and then the buisness visa. I was going to apply for the business visa while in Kiev. First, does anyone know how long it takes to get a business visa from the Kiev consulate? Second, is there any way I can apply now, from the US, for both visas? Can I apply for two visas at once if they are for different time periods? Thanks for your help! Anna

They can't even start processing a business visa invitation until 45 days before your entry date so time-wise it's not possible. The consulate in Kiev looks easy to deal with. Here are the requirements: http://www.embrus.org.ua/files/ebvisa.doc It says they can do visas same day or next day if "work volume permits". I didn't see any info about application fees but you could call to find out.
