Medical in London..malaria

[Yoms 0]

I was just thinking, i was looking at the questionaire on the medical at Knightsbridge and i see it asks if you have ever had malaria...does that mean if you answer yes, then you will be barred or denied?

Also the I-134 form says "with mortgage and other encumbrances thereon amounting to"...does that mean you put how much your bills are per year or per month?

thanks

The amount owe on your mortgage. i.e. House worth $250,000. You owe. $175,000 on it.

I think you need to be honest w/ whatever you answer... if they ever find out that you lied, that could be even more severe.

There is a place for you to explain your answers.. so if you had it - explain!

May be a good idea to get information from your GP regarding anything you answer yes to, ie get the records on what treatment you had for malaria, if possible. Should not be a problem in getting the visa, just may mean the medical need some extra information from you.

I went through everything on the Knightsbridge form with my NHS GP before going to london for the medical. You need to go to your GP and request your vaccination history anyway.

thanks for your replies...we will be honest on the questions, just curious if it meant anything bad and what we can do to explain that it was years ago, anyone who lived in Africa must have had malaria at least once....also concerning the financial encumbrance, i wrote how much my bills come out to every month....i guess i have to fill it out and mail it to her again with the correct information (how much i still owe on the loan on my house)

thanks.

I highly doubt the malaria would be a restriction - although I don't have any first-hand knowledge.

As for the net/liquid value of the home - you'd need supporting documentation of this net-value. An encumbrance (for most people) is the mortgage and possibly any 2nd mortgages you might have. Your mortgage statement should suffice for part of the equation (what you owe) and perhaps your most recent property tax statement would suffice for the rest (what the home is worth); one minus the other would be the net value.

The above information and documentation may not be necessary if the income requirement is already met (you don't have to list assets, bank accounts etc).
