In re-reading my hubby's DCF paperwork I noticed the following:

"Passport: Obtain a valid passport or make certain that it is currently valid for at least one year. On the day of your interview, the passport must be valid at least six months."

Now, does this last sentence mean that he must have HAD the passport for six months, or that is should be good (not expire) for another six months. This will make a huge difference, because he just last month filed for a Canadian passport. HELP!

Hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance!

I think the passport has to be good/valid for at least another 6 months...

I took it to mean that the passport had to be good for another 6 months after the interview.

Thanks guys! I was having a minor freak out tonight. I think you read and re-read the paperwork so much that it starts to confuse you after a while!

His passport will be fine good.gif It needs to be valid for at least 6 months from date of visa issuance. It goes hand in hand with the visa having a validity of 6 months to enter the US.
