I was told that there is an expiration for visa issued. Also told me that it could be a week ONLY after the visa has been issued so you need to fly soon. How true? Please enlighten me regarding this matter?

How long does a visa (F2A) expire?

the expiration date on these types of visas hinges around the medical date - grab that date and go 6 months forward.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

^^^. That explains it. Your visa expiration date depends on the date of your medical.

what about expiration for CR-1 visa?

^^^. For CR-1ers, I believe it's six months from the date of the medical.
