Nairobi Consulate?

[soon~tobe 0]

since we are talking Nairobi embassy does anyone know if Ugandans have to travel to Kenya for the medical exam? I know they used to but there is now a civil doctor in Uganda (he does the medical exams for adoption visas). So I am wondering if they can be done in Uganda....any one have a clue about this?

It is nice to see the several people going through the Kenyan Embassy. :-) I kept wondering why it wasn't on the list also.

Yes, actually now that I think about it, is there a Kenyan Embassy thread? If not, we should start one! AND I am asking everyone who has gone through the Nairobi Embassy to please write a review and update info on the Embassy page. There is hardy anything there! It's like people get so excited after they get their visa, they forgot to drop some crumbs for those poor ones coming after them

Guess I don't blame them though

My fiancee has her K-1 interview in Nairobi this week, so I guess I'm pretty up-to-date concerning the embassy and panel physicians, to this point in the process, anyway. Some of the other people dealing with the Nairobi embassy have obviously had far worse luck than I, but I've been praying a lot, and so far, I've had nothing but good news. Some of the embassy info (hours, documents, appointments, doctors, contact difficulties, etc.) seems wrong to me, too, but I can't update the embassy info page. If you've got any questions, I'll try to check back and answer them whenever I can.

Pls naraj update your timeline and pls post anything , that you feel we should take note of or learn from. Hope you be of . Good luck to your fiancee and you are in our prayers too.

No clue...that would be nice, since going to Nairobi TWICE is such a hassle! :angry:

BTW...I started a Nairobi Consulate thread, so let's all move over there!

I hear you with the hassle. Sierra Leone has no consulat for K visas either and my SO had to fly to Senegal 3 times including once for a DNA 2 min. specimen collection swap with his daughter. Not only is it a hassle but a burden on the finances. If our waiver gets approved he will have to fly there a 4. time for a third interview He already had 2 medicals there also.

Sorry, not sure. Just call the Nairobi embassy at 256-20-363-600, press option 0, and ask for the visa department. You may have to do that 2 or 3 times in a row before you get an actual person in the consular section to answer, but I've never had any problems. Good luck.

I tried, but I gave up because there weren't any Nairobi embassy choices, and my fiancee's country wasn't listed either. Check out Madwoman's new Nairobi thread for my timeline. I also just hooked Madwoman up (PM) with all the specific info I know about the Nairobi embassy process. Maybe she'll post them if she thinks they're worthwhile. Good luck!
