My company applied for a h1b transfer (normal processing) in May 2014, and i got the H1B receipt within 3 weeks. I got an RFE in August.My company is currently trying to submit the documents for RFE and also upgrade to premium ,they think this should get done by end of october. I am planning to go to India in november,i could fill the DS 160 form without the i797 approval document.But when i try to make the visa fee payment from the url ,

In the petitioner section,it asks for Receipt no, start date and expiration date . I am not sure what exactly is the expiration date?
1)Can you tell me what is the start date,expiration date here?.
2)Can i book an appointment without the i797 approval for now ,since i am expecting to get my h1 approved end of october, but i want to make sure i get an interview slot.
Thank you for your help .
