Does anybody know if the Nairobi IOM will make my fiance and her kids get vaccines again if we try and do them elsewhere first and have them put on their WHO card? Her eldest hates needles and I really don't want to pay 2 times!

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

A couple of years ago when I had my medicals done at IOM, I took with me records of recent vaccine shots that I got back home (since It was waaaayyy cheaper) and only got one or two more shots from IOM that were not available back home! The Medical assistants at IOM copied over the shots I had to the new form and that was it! I did not have to take the same shots again plus.. I saved more $$$...

I am not sure how things work out over there now though but If you do have records of the vaccines your Fiance and her kids have had then I don't suppose they would need the same shots again! Good luck to you and let us know how this works out!

The warmth of true friendship and the love that binds the hearts of husband and wife are a foretaste of heaven. God has ordained that there should be perfect love and perfect harmony between those who enter into the marriage relation. Let bride and bridegroom in the presence of the heavenly universe pledge themselves to love one another as God has ordained they should. {LYL}

Thought to share our journey for those who need the encouragement!

I need some help. My friend from Uganda have been trying to scheduled an appointment with IOM for the last three weeks in vein. He emailed several times and they do not mail back except once when he was asking requirements (meaning the email he is using is correct). He called several times and they never pickup return the voice mail he leaves them (sick!). What other ways can he reach these seemingly unreachable important people. A walk in their office is out of the way because he is 700 km away. His interview date is fast approaching.

He uses email: iomnbomedical@iom.int

and tele: 0207221000, +254717718491

Can anyone help?

Thank God I found this thread. I'm still at the NVC. Scan date Feb.23 but that doesn't seem to count because I got the IV invoice late and only competed the DS 260 April 3rd.

We call the Nvc almost daily. Different feedback all the time.

Ps: petition for my stepson.

Try calling because as it is, they review the ds-260 in 30 days.. so you are overdue..
