@shiela

dont worry sis,ill SMS YM you on thursday,im sure they will allow me to have my medical early. :) stop stressin coz you need COMPLETE bed rest. okay? :)

Korek.. I will wait ur message after ur meds okey?? hehehe.. thank u :-)

welcome =)

ksi po i know guard gonna ask u if u have the appointment letter beside if u want to know that u need to take sputum exam try to take a medical in other hospital than u pay 10500 pesos. diba?

yes the guard will ask you if you have the appointment letter,BUT if you want to do an early medical just bring a copy of NOA2 or letter from NVC and they will allow you to have it early.That's based on CR/IR visa applicants who did the medical early.and even if you need to take sputum test/s or not you still have to pay 10,500 anyways for the medical,so why not just go straight at SLMEC? and the reason or logic behind an EARLY medical is to not have so much delay,just incase there's somethin wrong with the Chest Xray/Medical.

Apparently you are not paying attention. You can have the Top Medical Doctor in PH give you clear results and it doesn't matter even if you to an early Sputum Test, SLMEC will do their own X-rays and is they decide require a Sputum Test.

For this reason go as early as you can, if you pass at SLMEC then the results are good for 6 months.

If SLMEC makes you do a Sputnum Test then you've reduced the delay by a month or more. After getting a clear Sputum Result SLMEC will give you a new appointment and your Medical Results will still be valid.

The 10,500Php isn't wasted even if you have to do Sputum, nowhere does it say you have to pay second Medical Fee after Sputum.

Following your advice they would pay for test that will have exactly no impact on the SLMEC Exam and have a false sense of security that they will pass the X-Ray.

When the Guard asks for the Appointment Letter present him with 2 things: Copy of NOA2 from USCIS and any Letter you received from NVC (for example the instructions from DS-3032 or better yet copy of IV Fee Receipt) which shows your MNL Case Number.

Ladies, do your Medical as early as you can then while waiting for NVC to complete and USEM Interview you already know the results and aren't worrying needlessly about the Medical Exam.

LTWifey,

I don't understand your reply. If you are advising against going early for the SLMEC please provide your reasoning for this as those who are in support of Early Medicals have already done.

Seriously, has anyone experienced problems or additional delays becuae they did their medical early?

With IR-1/CR-1 who are waiting for NVC to "Case Complete" like us (All fees paid, All Documents submitted & marked as Received, AOS marked as Accepted, just waiting on DS-230 Acceptance) we will receive the Interview Appointment from NVC so if Medical is already complete where is the harm? Can you show someone who had to wait more than 6 months from this point for interview?

I am not against early medical. Kindly trace back this thread and you'll see I am very much in favor on that. Some peeps here have PMed me asking if its a good idea to take it early. Answer is YES! Take it now, get over with it and just wait until your interview comes and bring the pink stuff.

THINK BEFORE SAYING ANYTHING. was meant for .MythaG-. She once said not to take an early medical w/o an appointment letter, in which short after you contradicted her. She just made a little confusion.

My last words to my fellows here, are-----

You can already take your early medical if you have the NOA2(approval notice) or Appointment letter and bring the following :

►passport,

►4 pcs 2x2 pictures with white background

►$213 (P10,500 at least) for the medical fee.

►liquids/biscuits so you have something eat from time to time.

►a jacket (some of my friends told me that its cold inside St. Lukes), and music player to kill the time.

I hope I made myself clear.

Yes, after they accept your DS-3032 NVC will generate the IV Fee Bill ($400).

After the IV Fee is PAID, NVC will send further instructions, and you'll be able to download the DS-230 Barcode coversheet (the same way you did the AOS Barcode Coversheet).

Once you have the DS-230 Barcode Coversheet you can mail in your DS-230 Packet.
