i think it should be valid for next 3 to 6 months but please make sure by calling NVC.

or its better that you renew ur passport. you have to renew it after abt 2 months anyway so y not now

You will NOT be given ANY visa with a passport that is not valid more than 6 ,months. The IV given once approved is valid for 6 months. The NVC will not accept your passport anyway.. so just save yourself sometime.

While you are correct that the State Department's website states that the passport has to be valid but is silent for how long, wouldn't it be better to send them a copy of a passport that will not expire in September 2011???

Photocopy of Valid Passport Biographic Data Page

Who needs to submit a photocopy of their passport?

The applicant and each family member accompanying the applicant must submit a photocopy of the biographic data page from their respective valid passport.

What should I send to the NVC?

Send a photocopy of your (and any family members’) biographic data page from valid passports. This is the page that shows your name, and your date and place of birth.

Note: Do NOT send passports to the NVC. Send only photocopies of the biographic data pages.
