As you´ll need a valid passport to the interview, apply for a new one as soob as you can, ´cus you´ll need it´s number when filling the forms in packet 3. So do that before packet 3.

Why wait if your approved??? It is a requirement for the interview, but each Embassy is different on if you can take the interview with an old passport. Double check if it is ok even if it is in the process of renewal. The US Embassy allowed Oksana to do her interview with an expired passport, but they understand the difficulties it is to get one in her country.

As others have mentioned yes you should get one now. I think there is a section where you put your intended time of travel - you can always put a rough estimate for when you think you will have the interview (and to be even safer make it a few weeks before). My passport expires in 2008 and i rang up the passport office and i was suggested to get a new one now too saving me the hassle of applying for a new one when i get to the states, the lady told me i should put down the date of my interview as when i need to fly. I am a born worrier so I will be doing what I can to expediate it lol
