How To Get A Pensionado Visa
To qualify, you must be at least 45 years old and show only US$600 in monthly pension or US$750 in monthly nonpension income, plus an extra US$150 per dependent. To retain your pensionado residency, you must be in the country for six months out of the year.
A noteworthy thing from a residency point of view is that it’s easy to establish here even if you’re not retired and even if you don’t have a pension.
The Pensionado Visa
In addition to its pensionado program, Nicaragua also offers what’s called a rentista visa. To qualify for this, you only need to prove income (from any source… could be investment dividends or interest payments, for example) of US$750 per month. The minimum age to qualify for rentista residency is 45.
Naturalization In Nicaragua
Residency in Nicaragua can lead to naturalization in this country. For citizens of other Central American countries (or any other country with which Nicaragua has signed a dual-citizenship agreement) a second passport and dual citizenship can be obtained, but U.S. citizens are not applicable.
