My recently approved i-129f will expire around the end of October. Looking at timelines, this will not be enough time for my fiancee to interview and obtain her visa, I'd imagine this will take place in mid-November.

 

So, how easy is it to get an extension on an i-129f validity period? And how early is too early? I would imagine it would at least need a case number with the NVC.

 

Thanks!

You don’t have to worry about that. The CO has the authority to extend the validity of the petition (up to one year)
