it’s my understanding that the visa is only to enter at the US border. your green card will be send to you after you get there and that should be valid for 2 years but I could be wrong bc I really thought the visa to enter the US was only good for 6 months 🤷‍♀️

when you came to the USA, you'll need to do adjustments of status and that will help you to navigate to the next process. call uscis or Google research.

The visa is valid for one year, you have one year to enter the US, you must pay for the green card before arriving so they can send you the 10-year green card.

Only the vis stamp in your passport is valid for 1yr...your greencard will be mailed to you after you arrive in the U.S
