Nairobi K-1 Visa Appointments
Short answer
What If Nairobi Shows No Appointments?
If you are eligible to schedule and have followed the current instructions, an empty calendar may simply mean no bookable appointment is visible at that moment.
Recent K-1 applicant discussions include reports of checking frequently and asking whether there is a predictable schedule for appointment releases. Other applicants reported that openings eventually appeared.
