Russian visa question

[Renee (Stillings) Huhs]

I agree - that is my understanding of it as well as we have had students
apply on the basis of their non-US passport, along with the supporting
evidence of why they are in the US (student visa, green card, etc.).

Hi Ben,
I have a green card and apply as a UK citizen, i.e., I do not fill out the
application for US citizens. They require my UK passport (obviously) and a
photocopy of the green card to prove that I have status in the US since I am
applying to a consulate here. 
So, I would think the student has to apply as a Philippine national. Having
a green card is just supplementarily required to support an application
within the US from a non US citizen. 
My two cents.
