I believe this is on the VISA, but I was awfully giddy when Trev called, anywho......this is the wording (dates particularly) i'm hoping someone here can clarify for me. And, I'm clear that the visa is good for 6 mos. Just not sure what the revalidated date is for? Is that because our NOA expired while waiting for Montreal?

Below the Control # it says Expirey May x ,2008

By Annotations it says:
Petr: Me
Pet exp / revalidated 06 Mar 08

What does that mean?

Thanks
Mary

Very good question. I just looked at mine and its dated for Feb 2008, but doesnt expire until April 2008. I have no idea what the date is for.

*bump*

for fun, you could email the consulate. they might surprise you with an answer.

From Montreal:

Pet. exp: 06mar08 is only for control, it has nothing to do with the validity of the visa, do not worry.

Thank you

I am pretty sure the pet:exp refers to the expiry of the petition. I remember when my sponsor applied, he read somewhere that I had a year to apply for my K-1 visa after the petition was approved. So, for examply, when the consulate sends you packet 3, don't hold on to it for 8 months, send it in as soon as possible (though who wouldn't anyways?? haha)
