Medical Information

[at long last 58]

Today I was doing more reading on the next process( even though our K1 hasn't been approved yet) What I was trying to find out was if we get the information back from the POE officer. I know it contains our medical information from our exam and that we need some of the information for our AOS. I also read in a thread that often there are issues that USCIS "loses" our medical information and to get a copy is next to impossible in some instances. SOOO... I contacted the Woking Medical Clinic where I will be going for my medical and asked if we could have an extra copy of the information. I'm not sure if this will work anywhere else but this is what information was given to me for Vancouver, Canada.

Hello Terri,

We are able to give you a sealed copy of your medical only if applicants request it for their adjustment status no other reason as we have been instructed by the Consulate. Now if you have not had your medical with our office yet and want a copy when you come in make sure you inform us of this, bring 3 additional passport photos and there is an extra fee of $30.00.

Now if you have had your medical, we need to know when you were in our office, and fee will be $50.00

For me this is what I will be doing as the $30.00 extra and the cost of the extra photos will be worth it for me just for peace of mind in case things go amuck when I need the information for AOS. I know that the medical information for Canada goes into our A file but have read horror stories and hope we can intercept an annoying situation. Hope this can help some fellow Canadians.

Have a great weekend, and remember USCIS doesn't work on weekends so give your head a rest....

The point of entry officer did not give any papers back from the package, only gave me the I-94 paper inside the passport. I will keep my fingers crossed that the package went where it was supposed to, but that's very interesting what you found out. Thanks!
