If the embassy only asked for a new medical then that's all they want at this time. send the medical as soon as possible.

I emailed the embassy and asked them to tell me if the medical is good for 6 months or for a year. I am waiting for their answer.

Hi carolynhotstuff,

good luck, My passport is going to expire in a couple of months time. I sent an email to the embassy and they replied with a same old that my case is still pending for AP rather about my passport expiry. Should I send them another email ? what do you suggest thanks.

guys, are the embassy ppl / dos minful of our travel dates... like university starting dates?

quite a few ppl in my batch actually received visa at the very last moment, which makes me believe they somehow knw when we need to travel..

or was that a coincidence??!

fulbrighter2013,

I don't know anything about your type of visa but it does sound like the embassy knows your travel dates.

the mechanic,

I would email the embassy and ask for your passport back and have it renewed as soon as possible.

[carolynhotstuff 252]

The embassy seems to be making all kinds of mistakes with our case. At first they sent us an email asking for a new medical back in October. When I questioned them about it they said it was a mistake our medical was good until March. Because of the debate on here about when they expire I emailed the embassy again. They said medicals are only good for 6 months now.

So my husband will call and make an appointment to get a new medical done. Maybe this is why they have not been working on our case.

I'm sure they're aware of that but they're bound to complete certain processes / checks prior to issuing a visa.

I've heard if a visa officer approves your visa and then he is posted somewhere else his decision is still honoured by his colleague. Particularly good with Americans.

I am in AP since July 2013. No status update so far.
