Approval Valid for only 3 months

[H and H 0]

My k1 was approved, but it is only valid for 3 months from 11/2010 - 02/2010.

As I know it should be 4 months.

Does any of you have the same problem?

I don't think 3 months is enough until the actual interview especially in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam.

Shall I request for extension when it is almost expired?

Thank you!

Sorry, I meant my I-129F not K1.

Somehow, I couldn't edit the post anymore.

K1 is a visa. Your petition was approved, not the visa. The expiration date of a petition approval has no practical impact, as Consulate simply extend the validity as needed.

All,

Please stop calling I-129F Petitions, K1 applications and stop interchanging the terms application and petition. It causes this kind of confusion more than you realize.

If it weren't for so many people interchanging terms that aren't interchangeable, you probably wouldn't have made the mistake. That's my point. It's not about criticizing you.

That's correct. It's the people who already know better that are causing the confusion.
