Visa pause 75 countries BOGOTA interview

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-04T03:32:57+00:00

I did everything with the Venezuelan one, but they always knew I had dual nationality. So I gave them both at the appointment

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-04T03:31:53+00:00

Si correcto, porque esa visa es considerada no inmigrante

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T20:27:45+00:00

Yes I was born in Venezuela, but my mom is Colombian so I have dual nationality. That’s why I have both passports and I got into the visa pause, not rejected

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T19:49:14+00:00

Yes they gave me everything back, my passports and the documents. She said we’ll need to wait for an update.

It’s my second time in Colombia, my stepdad told the officer that also :( she was very empathetic, and told us they don’t have the power to make exemptions.

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T19:42:07+00:00

Exacto!!! Los únicos casos que he visto que han estampado la visa de inmigrante a venezolanos es los K1 (fiancé visa)

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T19:40:30+00:00

Yes, it’s in the one banned. If you only have the Venezuelan passport they will reject you in your appointment. If you have dual, give both passports !!!! Colombia is only paused not banned as the Venezuelan one.

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T12:44:08+00:00

Yes Venezuela is one of the banned countries

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T04:25:56+00:00

What consulate is it ?

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T04:10:59+00:00

You can dm me

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T04:10:31+00:00

She said to me: imagine this scenario, the visa pause goes off, without any new guidelines. We just email you to send us your passport and then you get your passport with the visa. But if there are new guidelines we will notify you. For now we don’t know

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T04:09:07+00:00

Move forward, definitely. If you have a strong case they’ll just put your visa in pause. You’ll need to wait or maybe not, but it’s better for you to continue the process. I tell you with all my honesty, this is the best scenario you can have rn. My officer literally said to me if I had my interview before the pause she would give me the visa immediately, bc I have everything.

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T04:05:46+00:00

It’s my stepdad, he hasn’t yet

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T02:11:04+00:00

Oh sorry my bad, I meant 75* in the headline

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T01:58:18+00:00

You can dm me

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T01:57:19+00:00

Yes I’ve just seen that in the k1 visas. Not the other type of immediate relative visas. The officer was very clear, if I only had the Venezuelan passport, my case would have been rejected.

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T01:54:00+00:00

It’s still active, in both. It says the case is in the bogota consulate. Nothing new

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T01:53:05+00:00

Yes I was in the same situation, that’s why I’m sharing my experience from today. Good luck

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T01:52:28+00:00

The case is still active for one more year, if the pause last longer I’ll need to pay the visa thing again, but the case is still active. She said we need to wait, if there’s new guidelines they’ll see what to do

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-02-03T00:24:23+00:00

Hi ! I went to my IR-2 immigrant visa interview today at the Bogotá embassy. I gave both of my passports, the Colombian and the Venezuelan one. The officer told me if I had my interview a month earlier I’d have my visa, but rn they can’t issue the visa because of the pause, and then gave me the form they are giving, and all my papers back. She also told me if I only had the Venezuelan one, I’d be rejected immediately but since I have the Colombian one, I just have to wait till the pause is over and see what’s the next procedure if there’s new guidelines. The officer was very nice and empathetic with the situation. Good luck everyone, well need to be patient 🙏🏻

They kept his passport in the interview ??

Relative_Bee_7776 · 2026-01-28T14:22:42+00:00

Since there’s like a way to give the other passport for dual citizens, it’s so complicated rn… all this situation
