Hi Everyone,

 

My fiance is currently pregnant and her doctor has put her on strict bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy. Her due date is late October. We are March filers so we expect her NOA2 some time around July-August.  If we receive her NOA2 around July , does anyone know how long we will have to schedule the interview. We are trying to push it back as far as we can preferably after the baby is born.

 

Thank  you all in advance for the information and suggestions.

The petition usually has an expiration date, but you can send in documentation and a request to the embassy to extend the petitions expiration date. Depending on the embassy you may be able to ask for a interview date towards the end of the expiration date so you can prolong it as long as possible, and then after the interview if you're approved she has 6 months to enter the US. So you can possibly prolong it until after the first of the year.
