You must get married within 90 days of entering the U.S. on a K-1 visa.

Your timeline is the most enviable timeline I've seen yet. Congratulations!

August 23, 2010 - I-129 F package sent via USPS priority mail with delivery confirmation.

August 30, 2010 - Per Department of Homeland Security (DHS) e-mail, petition received and routed to California Service Center for processing. Check cashed. I-797C Notice of Action by mail (NOA 1) - Received date 08/25/2010. Notice date 08/27/2010.

After 150 days of imposed anxious patience...

ya, the 90 day period starts when you enter the USA.

you'll be issued an I-94 at the POE - pay attention to the dates there, has NOTHING to do with the VISA dates in yer passport.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

i heard that it's 6 months after the visa approved, what if you don't enter until the 4th month? do i still have 90 days period after enter into us?

thank you

Your K1 visa is good for 6 months, meaning you have 6 months to enter the US, then once you have entered POE you have 90 days to marry. Giving a total of 9 months.
