Default Basic K1 visa question UK to US

K1 visa.

The 90 day period in which we must get married. Does the 90 days start from
the embassy interview, or when I set foot in the US?

Hi Daisy

It starts from the day you set foot in the USA.

Best Wishes,

Just to add, your K1 visa is valid for 6 months from the embassy interview. The 90 day period for getting married only starts after you use the visa and enter the USA.

To clarify further: The visa is valid for 6 months starting the day the visa is approved, which may or may not be the date of the embassy interview.
