I will assume that since you are a filipina you kinda know what to expect regarding the medical exam... and St. Lukes. I would just add that if you have any prior medical records please take them with you to, if necessary, explain "any prior" diagnosis and/or treatments you have had. For example, my gal has the Michael Jackson skin "blotches," for lack of a better word, and when she did her medical exam it was "definitely" in her benefit to have had her medical records with her - no problem! Dress comfortably and expect to spend 2 days for the exam and results. This was my gal's experience. If anyone should disagree with anything I have had to say I would ask them to provide a valid citation and/or reference that differs from my experience. If you don't understand and you have time and care to please read the 2 comments on my profile.

Best of luck to you!

One thing. The NVC letter is not NOA2. The petitioner should have received the NVC letter after the NVC received and forwarded the approved petition. However, the SLEC website states "Appointment letter OR NVC if available" so you should be fine with one or the other.

NOA2 is the I-797 from USCIS. NVC letter is the completion letter and forwarding to USEM.

> Bring a sweater-- it's cold in there.

> Wear comfortable shoes-- it's faster to use the stairs.

> Bring a ball pen-- you will need it.

> Bring a snack in your purse-- manong guard won't look.

> Sleep in, have a leisurely breakfast, and arrive at St. Lukes in the late morning-- so you don't have to get up early and fall in line.

> Be honest-- even though your visa likely will be denied when you admit to any past illegal drug use.

....... :whistle: .......
