Don't hesitate to PACS if you want for your hubby to stay in France. I've heard Philippe saying they might consider to open the borders starting June 15th, My fiancée doesn't have a super good French neither for working in France so I have looked for some alternatives in the past: Paris you have a lot of English workers at la Défense, you also have Luxembourg where you can speak French or English, it's next to Metz and Nancy if you have to move (plus you make a lot of money in this area  )

the Petition is valid for 4 months.  You can request an additional 4 month extension.  That should get you at least 6-7 months.  Then, have the interview, and get the approval (thinking positive) and that is valid for another 4 (maybe 6?) months.  That puts you right at 11-12 months.   You may be able to request a 2nd extension if needed.  Wait for the medical until closer to the actual interview because those are only good for 6 months.  You shouldn't need to reapply if you do that.  I hope it all goes well for you!!

Do not worry about it ! You are good to go for interview .
let me know please when you get the letter or email for the interview .
mine, I had it by email , they sent me the date and the list of the documents I had to bring with me ( like the medical ones ) .
I guess you will have the same thing as well 

DS-160 is filled out by the foreign beneficiary and it part of the visa process at the embassy stage. 

For the DS-160, you have to put the informations of the beneficiary, so if you are the French fiancé, yes it's your informations that you have to fill !
The DS-160 is an online form, you will find it on the CEAC website. It's a little bit long to fill it but you can save the form online and to continue later if you want. And since it's an online form, it doesn't need to be approved by the U.S of the embassy.
 
When you will be done with it, you will be able to choose to print the confirmation page or to ask to receive it by email. Keep this confirmation page because you are going to need it for the interview

Today was root canal day for me. I had a run in with a crappy dentist three weeks ago, who sent me to the ER after drilling into my sinus and pouring bleach into it. Today I had a specialist go in and fix all that damage, so I was extremely nervous and scared about today. However, I woke up and checked the informed delivery and there it was. The golden Wonka wrapper, the USCIS letter.
 
I didn't tell my fiancee because 1) until I opened that letter it could have been and RFE and 2) I wanted to record a video of me opening the letter so that she and I could get the good news at the same time.
 
I sat through the 1.5-hour root canal cleanup job, staggered out of there and headed toward home toward that mailbox. About 5 minutes from the house I started recording a video and talking like nothing was up. Then as I pulled into home, I changed my tone to be much more excited and told her that I hope to have a surprise for her. I walked to the mailbox, pulled out the letter so that the camera could see it, walked to the car and got in, took a deep breath and NOA2!!!!  
 
Received: Jan 31 
NOA1: Feb 2
NOA2: June 7
 
Please hang in there everyone who is still waiting. I know how hard it is, but the good news is on the way. I have said it before, and I will say it again, you all are the strongest and greatest people I know.

My fiance is getting ready to do her medical too, so any information from those who already took the medical would be greatly appreciated! 

It didnt feel fast at all for me lol. I waited 3.5 months for NOA2, and a little over 3 weeks for the NVC. I got very lucky because the embassy had appointments available way sooner than I expected (I only had to wait 10 days for it). All together it took 5 months, and I haven't received my visa yet! 
 
It's not painful at all, they're just gonna get a little blood for analysis, make you pee in a cup and do a chest X-ray. Then you go see the doctor and they just examine you and ask you a few questions. Honestly nothing to be scared about. 

The all process (security, take new pictures, wait in line, go to a first desk to give them all my info, take my fingerprints, second waiting line and finally interview). The interview itself only took around 5 minutes for me lol. 

I just wanted to let you know that I received the packet from the local US embassy today. I did not receive any letters from the NVC. The packet has the case number, so I'm ready to schedule the medical exam etc... My NOA2 date is May 10th. You might receive the packet without letters from NVC. I encourage everyone to check the mail box if you're waiting for the packet from the embassy. Hope it helps you!
