Problem: Article: Although powder hair dye is usually more skin-friendly and chemical-free, some people may experience allergic reactions. If this is your first experience with a certain brand, mix a small amount of the powder with water and apply it to your skin. Once two days have passed without red or irritated skin, you can apply the dye knowing that you are not allergic.  Common allergy signs may include: intense stinging, skin rash, burning sensations, swelling, or blisters. If you notice any allergy symptoms, call a doctor immediately.  Most powered dyes claim to be free of chemicals, ammonia, metallic salts, and pesticides. There are some that even claim to be 100% vegan. Powder hair dye is safer to touch than peroxide-based dyes, but it is still messy. To avoid staining your hands, don a pair of gloves before you begin. Check to see if your dye package comes with disposable gloves before you purchase. Apply the hair dye in your bathroom to avoid staining your carpet and to better see what you’re doing. Most powder hair dyes will require little more than water. Look at the package's directions to see how much water you'll need to add. Stir the dye thoroughly until the paste is about the consistency of yogurt. Dye stains on your neck or shoulders can last for days without lightening. Find an old towel that you don't mind staining and drape it around your neck. Wear old clothes that you don't mind staining, like t-shirts or sweatpants.
Summary: Complete a skin allergy test 48 hours beforehand. Put on a pair of rubber or latex gloves. Pour the powder into a bowl, and add water. Cover your shoulders with a towel.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The easiest way to find your requirements for declaring a missing person dead is to meet with a lawyer. A qualified attorney will be well-versed in the requirements and can also help you file your claim/petition.  To find a qualified probate attorney, you can contact your local or state bar association. Ask for a referral.  After you get a referral, you can call and schedule a half hour consultation. Most lawyers offer consultations for a reduced price or for free. Your government’s requirements may be posted online. You can search by typing “your state or country” and “procedures missing person declare dead.” Many states publish their legal codes online. If you find your relevant code, read it and take notes. The code should tell you what steps you need to take. A person does not need to be missing for a certain amount of time to be declared dead. Instead, the government may state that after a certain number of years a person is “presumed” dead. This means that you don’t need to submit any evidence showing the person is actually dead once enough time has passed.  For example, your government may state that a person is presumed dead if they have been missing seven years. If you have had continuous lack of contact for more than seven years, then you don’t need to show that it is likely the person is dead. However, you don’t have to wait seven years. For example, someone might have witnessed your spouse be swept over the side of a boat and dragged into the ocean. In this situation, the court might find that there is sufficient evidence to conclude the person likely died. Only certain people can petition for a declaration of death. The precise list of people who are authorized to petition the court will differ by country and state. In England or Wales, for example, the following people can make a claim:  spouse or civil partner parent child sibling

SUMMARY: Meet with a lawyer. Search the Internet. Check how much time must pass to be presumed dead. Check if you can request the declaration.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Once you’ve obtained permanent resident status, you’ll need to live in Russia for 5 years. You can live outside of the country during that time, but for no more than 3 months each year.  If you have entered Russia on a Highly Qualified Person visa or as a refugee, the permanent residency requirement can be reduced to 1 year instead of 5. If you have connections to Russian citizens already, you might also be able to apply for Russian citizenship immediately after becoming a permanent resident – called the simplified process. The local OVIR office can give you a list of the qualifying relationships that let you apply through the simplified process without waiting 5 years. As part of the citizenship process, you’ll need to agree to abide by the Russian constitution. This usually means filling out legal paperwork through the OVIR where you agree to do so. If you’re unmarried and without dependents, you’ll only need to provide proof of legal means for subsistence for yourself. If you are married or have dependents, you’ll have to prove you can support them as well. The accepted proof for legal subsistence varies – you can find out what counts from your local OVIR. Pay stubs and bank statements might be required. Unless Russia has a dual citizenship treaty with your home country, you’ll need to renounce your previous citizenship. This includes filling out paperwork from the OVIR saying you renounce your citizenship and forfeiting your old passport. If you were previously a US citizen, you might be able to maintain dual citizenship. You’ll have to claim your US passport so Russian officials know you have one, but you won’t be required to give it up. How you’ll demonstrate this will vary – it may be a written or oral test. You might also be able to obtain paperwork from someone who is in a position to know about your command of the Russian language – like a language teacher. You’ll have to demonstrate basic command to get citizenship. The Office of the President of the Russian Federation (GUVM) will process your application. You should submit your completed application – available at your local GUVM – plus proof of income, proof of Russian language capability, and application to renounce citizenship (if necessary) to your local GUVM. Once you’ve submitted your application, you’ll need to wait up to a year for a decision. You can appeal a rejection through the courts. Your local GUVM office will have information on how to do so. If you’ve applied for citizenship through the simplified naturalization process, it will take up to 6 months for a decision.
Summary:
Live in Russia as a permanent resident for 5 years. Agree to abide by the Russian constitution. Provide proof of legal means for subsistence. Renounce previous citizenship. Demonstrate basic command of Russian. Submit your application to the Office of the President of the Russian Federation. Wait up to 1 year for a decision.
