The K-2 visa processing time varies from case to case depending on a number of factors, such as the caseload of the service center that is processing the petition and the K-1/K-2 visa holders’ country of origin. On average, it takes less than one year to process this visa. Many applicants receive a decision within four to seven months. The timeline goes hand-in-hand with that of the K-1 application process, as the two visas are inherently connected.
