Till 797 expiration date. But make sure your passport is valid for atleast 6 months at the time of interview.

This is getting confusing with contrasting answers. Can some one who has gone through the situation reply

One of my friends was in this situation, he got visa till 797 exp date but at POE I94 was issued according to PP expiration.

 

In your case, either you get it till 2015 or 2016 you should be good , am I right?

Will it be a problem if i get I94 stamped untill PP expiration date... Is it like ...i  just need to go out of the country and come back without actaully going for visa stamping again??

You don't need to attend interview if your visa is still valid at that time. Just cross the border and make sure you have your new PP at POE.
