Confused - medical expires in November visa issued September??

[JLSBMF 16]

My fiancee had his medical exam in June a few days before our original interview appointment. We had to be rescheduled till this past September 12th when he was approved. From what I am reading he must travel before his medical exam expires which would be in November , yet his visa itself should be valid for 6 months which would be in February?.

Can the medical be re-done?

Any clarifications would be great - i have emailed the embassy but have not gotten a response.

thanks!

do u mean to say he already had his visa on his hand now, well if so he should really travel soon before it expires or else he will redo it again..

the CEAC website says his visa has been issued - however the medical will expire in Novemeber.

It is to my knowledge the visa as good 6 months from the date of the medical, not the visa issuance itself. At the moment I can't recall specific threads that mention this though. As for redoing the medical, I'm not sure.

The embassy responded and said the visa is valid for 6 months regardless of the medical exam validity.

if he travels after the expiration of the medical he can have it redone
