What should developers do for iPhones from Russia?

I would like to ask the public about the intricacies of the formation of Registred Apple Developer and about the sale through the Apple Store as a whole. From what I know:

• In order to sell programs through the Apple iTunes Store, you need to buy participation in the Apple Developer Connection for $ 99.
• Development only on Mac, Leopard. IDE free.

Then some questions:

• Participation in the Apple Developer Connection is bought for $ 99 through the same Apple Store, but Russia is not on the list (as far as I understand they do not work in the Russian Federation). It is proposed to unsubscribe to the support. The letter is automatically kicked into the European branch, where they die: a week has passed - there is no answer. Trying to register in another country?
• Who has the experience of buying, what is the payment there? Russian Visa classic passes?
• If you are a state developer, you are tax deducted. If not, then you are asked to confirm this, in what form? As far as I know there you need to show not a passport, but an analogue of the state of the SSN. INN?
• If the program is for sale, possible withdrawal options? Only checks or wire is also possible. If the first, how much is the check, and how easy it is to cash.
• Apple holds 30% of sales. What other cons? The cost of transferring the check?
