Hi,

For a K-1 visa, approval expires 4 months after the approval date, but the approval can, and is, extended by the consulate where the visa application is being processed, as long as the visa applicant is actively pursuing the visa.

The visa, once issued, will be valid for 6 months from the date of the medical exam. So, the sooner in advance you schedule the medical exam the sooner the visa will expire once it is issued. (It used to be 6 months from the visa issue date. It is now 6 months from the date of the medical exam!)

I hope this helps.

The embassy will automatically extend the validity of the petition up to a year. Relax, all is fine.
