gap btwn NOA2 and interview

[DanielDK 0]

I have received NOA2 back in June. Everything has been sent from NVC. The only thing left is the interview. Is there a time restriction as to when my fiance has to schedule an interview and receive her visa? My fiance is planning on scheduling her interview sometime in Nov. of this year and assuming things process smoothly, she should receive her visa and enter the country in Dec. I'm aware that there is the 90 day time restriction of getting married upon entering the country but is there a time restriction as to when the fiance has to schedule an interview and receive the visa?

My consulate is 6 months then your petition expires if you don't do anything. It could be consulate-specific, though.

I believe the USCIS approval is valid for 4 months but the consulate can extend it indefinitely if needed for their review. Once you are approved at the consulate and receive the visa, it is valid for 6 months or until used.
