Experience in getting Medical from Delhi and PCC from Ghaziabad

[BeachMusic 8]

Hi,

Just thought I'd share my experience.

1. Medical: That was easy. I called Max Med center up, they told me to come the next day with photographs, my passport, appointment letter (email-ed appointment letter was also ok for them) and about 4000 Rupees.

I showed up at noon on a Saturday, that was a mistake. It was terribly crowded and it took me 4 hours to be done. They take your blood test and xray, and then you have to meet a doctor. The doctor wanted to see records of Dtap and Meningococcal vaccination. If you don't have one they'll ask you to buy it and get it done. Thats it. I picked up the report around 10 days after that. The 4k estimate included the two vaccinations btw.

2. PCC: I din't have police verification done for my passport so I couldn't get it on the same day. It was a LOT of waiting. At the PSK you can walk in for PCC's. You need to make an account online on passportindia.gov.in. Fill out your PCC application, and upload it back again, and take a print out of the receipt (ARN sheet with the Barcode) when you go to the PSK along with your passport copy, residential proof (they were not accepting Drivers license/ration card - i took verified Bank statements for the last one year) and your appointment letter. The APO did insist On seeing something for the visa.

This was the easy part. It took them 10 days to send it to the central office in my city by registered mail. i went there often to check on whether my application got there. Then I followed up constantly, with the local police, then when it was finally sent back to the Passport office, i went to the regional passport office to get a status of my application, which they cleared then, then i went to PSK, and finally got my PSK. Took 3 weeks, and a LOT OF follow up. If I hadn't followed up it would have take 5-6 weeks atleast i Believe.

Did they do a full physical examination? what were the questions asked by your Doctor? Did they want to see any previous records?
