How long the k1 petition expired? Or does it expired? I had a petition last 2015, is it still open or valid?

Valid for 1 year from date filed. 

 

If u plan to file agai. this will need to be mentioned. Even if u didn't use k1.

noa1 date is actually they date on ur hard copy. Sadly if u reach the magical 220 day u must wait till 225 to contact Uscis. They use what the new site says. Even if ur paper says X date. 

They added 5 days onto everyone’s accepted on NOA1

Hi Bj & Christine. Thank you for the answer. i am from philippines. I honestly have an ongoing petition. I was asked from the pre screening to final interview if I had a previous petition and I answered truthfully YES, year 2015. They asked me the reason and I said, I suffered from verbal harassmanet and J decided to broke him up before I received the eligibility letter. I just leave the petition without doing anything. i got interviewed in Sept. 7, 2018 for my current petition and the consulate announced "okay your visa is approved, kindly wait 5-10 working days for the delivery of the passport along with the visa." they have my passport. i am just worried that the previous petition might delay my visa. Do you know someone who has a previous petition but got approved and got a visa on hand? I hope to hear from you. Thank you...

I have no knowledge of anyone previously petitioning and having issues with a second petition. Since you've already been approved you just have to wait for your visa to be delivered since you've already been approved you just have to wait for your visa to be delivered you can contact them and ask them if anything is going on but probably just get a generic answer

It's been 17 working days since they approved me on my interviewed or almost 30 days if we include weekends but the visa is not yet delivered. My case status was placed "Administrative Processing from Sept. 10 to Sept. 21" and my case last updated was "Sept. 24 to Application Received until today" I am not a 221g... I am just worried that my previous petition affects. Hotline of USEM in Manila can't answer me if it can affect. I am just hopeful coz I was approved. Please let me know if you know someone who has the same case. Thank you...

The visa expires after one year.  The petition expires after 4 months, but you can apply for an extension.   I would call to find out if you have to start over. 

Hi jbertucci, thank you for the answer. Do you think my previous or 2015 petition is already closed?and won't affect my current k1 petition?
