Knightsbridge now denies on past Depression/Self-harm

[*Snowdrop* 604]

Excuse me! Are you trying to shove the truth under the rug??? People need to know these things they must be ready in case the worst comes. If you try to hide that you do more harm than good. The truth must be heard.

The medical office CANNOT deny anything. Only the Embassy can do that. So the title of this thread is inaccurate.

If, once your fiance has had the interview and at the interview they deny him, and tell him it is because of a failed medical exam due to his past depression and self-harm you can create a thread titled - The UK Embassy now denies (sometimes) on past Depression / Self-harm.

It is misleading for future members here to read this thread title.

STOP YOUR SPECULATIONS NOW!!!! OPEN YOUR EYES

It is true, I am speculating, but only because what you are saying doesn't make sense and isn't true.

You could use some eye opening yourself for it seems you aren't being told the complete story by your fiance. If for no other reason, shouldn't you try and find what really took place, as a precaution?

Also - unless I am missing something at this point your fiance has not been denied. So you are the one who is speculating.

No, it's time for your wakeup call.

You have been told to behave by one of the moderators, yet you've continued to insult the single most knowledgeable member of this part of the forums as well as several others, dismissing their experiences because of the sole overriding belief that you are right above all others. You have gone around spreading fear and misinformation which other members then have to counter and clean up - the others have provided evidence to show that around the world the doctors who do embassy medicals do not have the power to deny a visa. They can ask for further evidence to show a condition isn't an issue, and that includes a psych exam if needs be.

I'll tell you what really happens. At the first window you go to, they look at your medical file and on their little checklist to hand off to the consular officer who actually makes the decision on your visa they put if you have Class A, Class B or Neither when it comes to your medical. I had 2 Class B's - specifically recent stomach surgery, and asthma. I'm now on the other side of the Atlantic, happily married because the doctor did his job at the time of my medical by asking for information from my surgery consultant. They didn't deny me then and there in the doctor's office.

And as for "covering up the truth" and people "speculating" - again, they have provided hard facts to back up their assertions. You have not. The one who needs their eyes opening is you, not us. And while I certainly can't speak for the rest of the gang who help out here, as one of the people who used to on a daily basis - you will get no further help if you continue insulting those volunteers who do give their time freely and willingly.
