Is there deadline to submit your DS-260 online?

[Eiramana 2]

Hello everyone!

I got my manila case number already.. Last march 9.. But we need more time to take care of our belongings here in Philippines before we fly to USA. 

based on the email i received i have1 yr to apply for my visa.. But the question is is there a deadline to submit my DS-260?

If i am planning to schedule an interview on November is it ok to submit my DS-260 weeks before november. 

Or i can submit it now or this month already and wait for november? 

Thank u

you still have a lot to do after getting your MNL case number,

 

as per an immigration lawyer " The National Visa Center gives you one year to submit all required documents. If you are requested to send additional information or your first submission is incomplete the one year begins again upon your receipt of correspondence from the USCIS. "

 

you may submit the DS260, and just schedule the interview on a later date for example on september if you intend to fly on November

One is expected to submit the DS-260 within one year of receiving the case number.

Once the DS-260 is filed, it remains valid for 3 months within which one should schedule the interview.

(I filed on 3rd jan and it said valid till 31st march)

 

It is my opinion that if USCIS has asked for a document, you are expected to submit within 60 days.

 

Hope that helps.
