Post DOT Medicals Update

Finally after months of DOT at SLEC the wait is over! My Fiancee and step-daughter have passed their Medical Exams and received their Immunizations.

We were told by SLEC that they would schedule the interviews after the DOT and final exams. I also read here on VJ that SLEC will not schedule their interviews. I can confirm SLEC WILL SCHEDULE INTERVIEWS for post DOT patients following the final medical exam. They did this for my Fiancee and step-daughter at their final medicals/immunizations. Note: They asked that she bring their passports and BPI Receipts which is an indication they would do the scheduling.

My Fiancee and step-daughter will have their Interviews the second week of December (so I can attend). Feels like a massive weight has been lifted from our shoulders now that we can finally have the interviews. For those who have to do DOT, hang in there. The end of that road comes sooner than you think.

FYI: There are a lot of openings for interviews as early as the week of November 19 last we checked.

I'm glad that SLEC will schedule interview have worked out for you, it didn't for Mike. A bunch of non-sense alibis were given to him, saying they couldn't get through and once they got through that the Customer Service rep said they can't do it, that only the person who made the initial interview was to call and reschedule :bonk:

Well congrats and good luck!

Did they tell her when her medical will expire? I met a lady with the same case as your wife during my CFO seminar and they only gave her less than two months. So, her visa will expire 1 month after her interview.. There is a big chance your wife and stepdaughter will be travelling with you back home... that would be GREAT!kicking.gif

Good luck to the upcoming interview..

Cheers!

Perhaps that would be the case if the original interview was not cancelled. I cancelled their April interviews, so maybe that made a difference. I should note that SLEC did make a mistake which I had to correct this morning. They somehow flagged my step-daughter's Visa Class as K1. I had to contact the Call Center who then cancelled the appointment and added it back with the correct K2 Visa Class.

Lesson #2: Even if SLEC makes the appointment for you, double check everything. Glad I did.

Yes, we were made aware that their recent Medical Exams expire at the end of January. As soon as they are approved we will be making arrangements for them to leave the Philippines which we anticipate to be at the end of December or first week of January. Thanks for the heads up and well wishes.

Congratulations. I hope you are now together and enjoying life! I have a question about the end of the DOT process. When the 6 months of meds were done, did your fiance need to wait an additional 8 weeks for the final sputum culture results? Of did SL clear her at the end of the meds?
