Hi all
I want to know after issuance of cr1/ir1 visa. How long its validity?
I mean how long I have time to leave my country
thanks


as matter of fact i had interview on october any my clearance is ready now?
please tell me how long this visa is valid?
and when is its starting point for count , my interview or the day i got my visa after clearnace?

Most times you have 6 months from the issue date to leave. In some cases they will issue it and you will have shorter time to leave the country. Cannot tell until you have the visa in hand.



You need to contact the embassy or DOS for an update since you do not have your visa in hand so it is still not issued.

i got ir1
is it kind of visa ? or i should get pocket?
i heard about one pocket for officer in us ?and visa in my pass?
please let me know what should i get from them?

IR 1 means your married over 2 years once it was issued.




You should of gotten your visa back in a large brown envelope. You do not open the larger brown envelope you give it to the POE officer. The actual visa should be inside your passport.

I'm glad you added this, M.
We often say 'oh, all visas are valid for 6 months' when in fact, they often are not!

so how can i get expiration date?
is it included in my visa?

Yes, the expiration date should be mentioned on the visa page. Please read carefully.

Yes, it will say on the front of the visa, 'expiration' date.
