Issue Date: 02FEB2012

Expiration Date: 30JUL2012

Annotation: FIANCE OF (MY NAME) K-1 PETITION EXPIRES ON MAY 31, 2012

Why are there two different expiration dates ???

the visa is can use for entry within 6 mos (feb to may) from that date of issuance,the visa is valid for 3 months(feb to may) thats why it says expired on may 31

its means that the visa can use for entry within 6 months from date they gave it to you,once u entered the us the visa is no longer valid bcoz the officer of the port of entry will give u a 1-94 card that allows u on how long u can stay.

Your original petition expires on May 31, 2012, but you have the visa so that date is not important anymore.

The date your finace must enter the US by is 30 JUL 2012. Once you use the K-1 visa for entry to the US it is no longer valid as it is a one entry visa. Then you must get married before the expiration date on the I-94 which will be 90 days from the date of entry. Once married, you file for AOS, but there is no dead line for that. Your fiance cannot work nor leave the US until the AOS has been processed and he recieves the EAD/AP card or the GC.

Good luck and congrats on the visa,

Dave

Mine does not have two expiration dates, only the one. It says Issue date and Expiry date on the same line, 6 months apart.

My visa was issued in 2009, so things may have changed.

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.
