I don't even see in the link where it says someone with an abortion must undergo psychiatric evaluation.

Is this something that's done per consulate?

Indeed, if that's true, then it's highly disturbing. I've never heard of any "required" psychiatric eval after an abortion, at least not in the U.S. I've heard of having to go through a ridiculous "waiting period", but never a psych eval.

Even if they are, the solution to this is not to lie about it.

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.

I'm approved! The interview went well and without any problem. Everybody there at the embassy treated me well and with respect especially the lady consul. They are not concerned about abortion at all and did not even ask me about it. Seriously, I observed that they are more particular about illegal immigration, lying, and overstaying in the US. Thank you to all of you guys who imparted their intelligent and correct opinion about the matter.

Hahaha! Congrats. I know my opinion is already moot and academic but just in case someone would find herself in the same boat, she should not feel paranoid at all. The psychiatric exam that SLEC may require is actually a chance for the applicant to be cleared of any impression of mental or psychiatric illness or disorder. It's the GP that makes the notation on whatever abnormality found during the physical exam, like self-inflicted scars or as in your case, history of abortion. Being referred to psychiatric evaluation may cause you delay in the completion of the medical exam but it is actually more to counter the impressions noted by the GP. Hope this helps
