B Correct answer
Explanation

The verb 'advanced' means 'moved to an earlier time.' When indicating time changes, 'by' shows the amount of shift. 'On' is used for specific dates, 'of' shows possession or belonging. The sentence means the visit was moved earlier by a duration of three months, so 'by' is correct.
