The Medical

[Arther & Joi 0]

Hello All

I have a few questions regarding the proceess of the fiance visa. Is the medical portion of the visa process scheduled by the uscis or the local embassy, and my fiance is given a date and a place for the medical examination? What is the usual time span between sending in the petition and medical examine? If anyone could help me out with these question it will be greatly appreciated.

Different by consulate, but most require the applicant to make there own appointments.... The I-129F petition is submitted by the USC and it could take the USCIS 2-5 mos. to approve... then the case file sent to the consulate. Once the case file is at the consulate, then and only then is when the alien is allowed to apply for a visa.

You will have a wait first the petition has to be approved then it will forwarded to the NVC. Once the NVC forwards it to the embassy that is when you will get packet 3 this will tell you what you need to do in order to schedule a interview. Once the interview is schedule you will then take that letter and schedule yor medical. the embassy will let you know there choice of doctors to schedule the interview.

Hope this helps!!!

what all are they actually checking for in this physical? this part just makes me wonder a bit. i mean, it makes me think of people checking over livestock at the fair before purchasing it...

I know they check your injections and HIV/Aids I don't really know beyond that
