Further to our earlier blogpost, the State Department has officially confirmed that the US Embassy in Bogota, Columbia (not Lima, Peru) will now handle all immigrant visa processing for nationals and residents of Venezuela.  The National Visa Center will begin scheduling immigrant visa interviews on a first-in, first-out manner in Bogota beginning April 2019. The US Embassy in Lima, Peru (along with any other Consulate in the world) continues to be available for nonimmigrant visa applications.
