Consulate Review: Nicaragua Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : March 5, 2026 Embassy Review : The whole process took about ~2.5 hours. The interview itself lasted less than 5 minutes. I had the pleasure of being assisted by two kind ladies. Some of the questions they asked me were: How and where did you meet your fiancé? How many times has he come to visit you? (They asked me to show them photos) How long have you been in a relationship? When was the first time he came to visit? When are you getting married? What does your fiancé do for a living? What do you do for a living? What do your parents do for a living? Do you have a "carnet de militante"? (Nicaraguans will understand) Can you show me screenshots of your conversations? What countries have you traveled to?" Have you been out of the country for more than 60 days? Have you ever been arrested? And that was it. Four days later, I am already able to go pick up my visa. Best of luck to everyone who will be going through this process!

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
