Hi all,
Hopefully an easy question here smile.gif
Our I-130 was approved on Jan 9th 2007. NVC processed our case but US CIS requested it back. They finally released the case and it's back at the NVC getting ready to get sent to the embassy. The question I have is that the expiration date shows at January 9th, 2008. Since the US CIS was the one screwing around during this past year and since the embassy is running months behind on interviews in Montreal, are we going to get screwed yet again by our I-130 approval expiring? Or do they take into consideration that most of the past year has been their delays? Not sure what happens when Jan 9th 2008 comes and we haven't completed the interview yet.

No worrries. Consular officers can and routinely do extend the validity of petitions.
