I think 10 years is the standard, it was noted we only wanted 6 months and that was calculated for our exit date when we got to NY.
Other things that may have helped us get the Visa
We both had letters saying our jobs would still be available when we returned.
I work for an American company
Our plan was for 3 months, the flights were booked right upto 90 days and we only wanted the visa in case of delays (which there were).
All I need to do now is work out how to transfer it to my next passport as my passport expires in 2010 :-(
