The Two Stage Process of Obtaining an Immigrant Visa
-
The Petition – The petition establishes the right of an intending immigrant to apply for an immigrant visa. It is generally filed by an American citizen or legal permanent resident who has a qualifying relationship with the intending immigrant or by a potential future employer.

-
The Immigrant Visa Interview – Once a petition has been approved, the case is sent to the National Visa Center. When the case is ready for processing, it is forwarded to the U.S. Consulate in Honduras and the applicant is scheduled for an interview. For more information about visa interviews, click here.
