FYI: it is better to go for an early medical because you never know, incase theres problem it gives you more time,so it does not cost so much delay.

A lot of our fellow Vj'ers do that, you are good to go, especially if you know that you will not be delayed with NVC because you know you will not have an RFEs.

Good luck!!

yes you can go for advance medical.. i did that!

Definitely yes! I did the same also because I was so worried that I might encounter a problem with my X-ray result and we want to minimize as much as possible the possible delay. X-ray result turned out ok and the whole process went smoothly for us. I hope it will for you also.

Goodluck!!!

Thank you all fellow VJ's for your positive replies, now i am certain to have my medical in advance.

God bless...

hi anna,
i just wanna ask if ur baby has done also the medical at st. lukes? coz someone told me that the baby is no need to be medical, is ur baby has a u.s passport already? i was just confused coz i dont know what to do, my baby is just 1 month old and im filing a crba for him.

thanks

YES u can.... I did my advance medical OCT 5-6 2009 :-)

good luck

ABSOLUTELY!

So how early can it be done? Just wondering because i know my wife will want me to be there with her if i can. I plan on being there in february and i will be sending in the I-130 this week. Thanks.

Hi Im just curious about the IV BILL is it the docs that NVC going to sent you when you need to fill out for the choice of agent or there is another docs NVC going to sent. Im planning to do advance medical this week? I printed my case number from internet is it the docs you telling from number 7?

Since you are doing the CRBA your baby will have a US Passport and no need for a US Immigration Visa so there will be no need for SLMEC Medical either.

BOB and ANNA,

I just want to ask if I can go medical without my vaccination record? My hubby got paid the AOS is it okay to do advance medical eventough without the IV Bill yet? Thankz for the responce.

Hi,

its recommendable to have an early medical exam nearly your Case Completion.

Medical result is only valid for 3 months. If it expire before your interview, you need to repeat it again.

Do we need the original copy of the NOA2 and NVC mail or is it okay if it is a reproduced copy? Thanks!

Since some of the vacc are more than one round it is good to get some of them early even before medical at St. Lukes. I think as part of the medical they only do the first round of shots but others may have different experience.

I only showed them scanned copies of NOA2. definitely YES. you can make copies of them

Its okay if you dont bring copies of your vaccination record. Yes its ok to do advance medical without IV bill. just bring a copy of any document from NVC so that you can show them youre case number. goodluck!
