Caracas: R1 visas issued

Nonimmigrant visa: Alien in a religious occupation

Caracas has not issued any visas since February 2019, in State Department figures up to February 2026.

Caracas issued no R1 visas in the two years to February 2026. The last month it issued any was January 2019.

This counts visas issued, which shows how busy the post is, not how long you will wait. The State Department data here ends in February 2026, so it cannot show what has changed since then, such as pauses that started or ended later.
