Heya

We are planning on applying for the K1 in early Jan to try to time the expiry of the visa with march 2014 as that is the last date i would enter before we get married ( presuming we are accepted and the visa is in hand by Sept 2013).

I have a long notice period to give at work (3 months) so would be pushing towards the 6 month visa expiry before i fly out anyway.

My question is this.

If you receive an interview date, can you request that it be pushed back?

Ie if our petition and application was one of the rare ones to fly through the process (99 days i think is the shorter time span looking at the timelines ) would i be able to request an interview in September even if it is june when the embassy contact us regarding an interview date?

Hope you can help

If you put a really far in the future wedding date in the cover letter London requests with the DS-2001, they will tend to push your interview date out anyway in favor of the ones needing a visa sooner. So that might help you a little. You can also reschedule. And there's this http://london.usembassy.gov/faq-imm-proc.html#iv063.

Thanks for that.

Its so difficult to work out when to send the petition off and to not plan a wedding to its full extent until the visa is in our hands.

We want to plan our wedding and its date to help family and friends plan their travel.

Thanks for the help.
