Has anyone had an interview in Colombia for K1 Visa recently.... I am a bit confused because i saw on the Colombia consulate web site that i require to file ds 156 and 156k instead of ds160 and pay $350 for those forms and in the national visa center web site it says ds 160 for k1 visa is only $260. Does anyone know about what is the form we need and what is the fee...

Thanks...

We haven't had the interview yet. But I posted asking this question about a month ago, and I had Colombian filers reach out to me and tell me it is the DS-160. NOT the DS-156.

Good luck!!!!
