Hello!

I received my K1 visa a few weeks ago and plan to leave towards the end of February. The visa expires in May. Kindly help me clarify if;

I have to leave earlier due to my medicals and police report?

What is the validity of the medicals?

Does it matter when I go as long as it is before the visa's expiry date?

Don't worry about the medicals or the police certificate. You are good to ENTER the US up to the expiration date on your visa.

It doesn't matter when you travel, so long as it is before your visa expires.

Good luck and congrats!

You must enter the US before the expiry date on the visa--otherwise you will not be allowed to enter the US. Once you enter the US, the K-1 visa has been used and is no longer valid. You must marry by the expiry date on the I-94 form. Once you do all that, your obligations of having the K-1 visa are fulfilled. Of course, you will want to become a LPR, so you file the adjustment of status (AOS)--along with the employment authorization document (EAD) and advance parole (AP) which are free when filed with the I-485--page 4 has the answer you are looking for. When you do that will determine if you need a new medical or not. You do not need a new police report as that was required to obtain the K-1 visa in the first place.

Good luck,

Dave

I have to leave earlier due to my medicals and police report? Nope. You have the entire validity of your visa to enter US.

Does it matter when I go as long as it is before the visa's expiry date? No, it doesn't matter when as long as its before the expiration.
