hi everyone! I have a question my interview date will be on April 22, 2012 in Abu Dhabi, but we received the I-797 Notice of action from the USCIS, giving my case an approval notice from DEc 21/2011 to April 20, 2012.My question is can the interview date be before the approval notice expires? or can the embassy extend the approval notice that USCIS have given us? Should I call the embassy and inform them or just leave it for its ok. thanks in advance

Automatically, they will extend it. Don't worry about the expiration date, you are fine.

The Embassy has the ability to re-validate a petition if an interview has not yet taken place.

The 797 is a petition requesting for approval to apply for a visa, once you start your visa application you have fulfilled the petition and timelines are now from the embassy. Don't worry about it.

Though your case is not directly the same as mine, but by reading your posts here I already got the answer I was looking for.

My son was approved last month while here I am still waiting for my NOA2. He's almost at the end of his NVC journey and I was wondering if I delay his NVC journey a little so that I could catch up and have the same interview date with him. So that's my conclusion upon reading everyone's posts. To finalize this decision, you think it's safe to delay it? thanks for the help. :-)
