You can schedule the interview out almost a year if you desire. This is decided by you.

Thank you for your service!

Ok, let me recap. After printing the receipt and my Fiancee will go to the Bank and pay for the visa interview. She will wait a couple days to go online and schedule the interview. The online sight will ask you what day she will like to schedule? or will there be a list of available days?

I really hope I was able to explain this correctly.

Yes that is pretty close, only the site will not ask "when" it will show a calendar with available dates, usually about 30 - 45 days out at most, if you want a later date you will have to wait until that month becomes available.

Hey Brother, not an issue. Ask away.

The visa fee is good for a year- ALMOST. You have a year from the initial validity date on the NOA2 to complete the visa process. NOA2 shows 4 months of validity, the embassy will extend for roughly another 8 months. You must get everything done and be issued the visa BEFORE that drop dead date.

Ok let me recap I apologize. I did get the NOA2 on the 9th of December so this mean we will have to process everything by the 9th day of April?

If we wish to extend it we will need to call some one?

If we do have a date for the interveiw and a Medical, in April, will we be out of regulations and we will need to ask for an extension?

oh wow, I am sorry I feel like I am bother y'all here.cute-kitten-sorry-smiley-emoticon.gif

NO. There is a validity date printed on the NOA2 , it is a 4 month time frame, the beginning date of that validity period plus a year is your limitation for completing the process. The embassy will extend your validity without you doing anything.

So figure you have roughly until the beginning of November 2015 (doing a slight PFA here) to get the visa in hand.

Ok I am understanding it now. So would you recommend to hold off on setting up an interview, until I know for sure when I can be release? or what the doctor will say on Wednesday.

I am expecting in a month I can get leave and go there to Philippines.

Thanks for you patients Hank_
