Medical Exam

[myyid68 0]

Does anyone know how long it usually takes until you schedule a medical exam at Regina Maria in Bucharest? Do you have to wait a long time before they can schedule you? I'm asking because I got my package from the embassy at a rather bad moment, one day before Christmas and it's proven very hard to get everything I need together with all the days off and closed offices for Holidays. I called the clinic on the 28 and the girl on the phone just told me that they'll start their schedule as usual on the 6th of January and then she hung up on me..

I'm kind of worried that it might take too long for me to get that appointment.. I also have another question, in the instructions sent by the embassy they say that after I have gathered all the documentation that they listed there, I should send back to the embassy a piece of paper included in the package, signed and dated and that after they receive that, they will schedule me for the interview. Now, I have not sent them back that piece of paper yet because I havent gone for my medical exam yet and also because my fiance has not mailed me the Affidavit of Support yet. He just finished putting it all together today and he's going to mail it via DHL tomorrow.. Hopefully it will get here in maximum a week.

Do you guys think that there's a deadline or something for me to send back to the embassy that piece of paper signed and dated? I already emailed them the confirmation page for my DS-160. They dont mention anything about any deadlines, they just say that I should immediately send them via email the confirmation page for the DS-160 plus a copy of my biographical information page from the passport (which I already sent to them right after I got the package). And as for that piece of paper that they want back signed and dated, they just said that I should send that once I have all the other documentation ready.

I'm kinda starting to freak out a bit that it's taking me too long to sent that thing back to me and that I might have delays with the medical and idk, all sorts of pessimistic thoughts that something might go wrong just now, after we've come so far.

As long as the interview is within 4 months from noa2, you have nothing to worry. It took me a month to send the instructions back to the embassy, and I had no problem in scheduling the date for the interview.

As far as Regina Maria goes, I called 2 weeks before my medical. I had no problem scheduling the date I wanted with Dr. Toma. Try calling back on Monday and see if she has the date that you want available. I know from someone who did the medical the same day as the embassy interview and got the results at 12 pm and the interview was at 1 pm. But that is only possible on a Tuesday, because dr. toma on Tuesdays is at the Baneasa clinic. The rest of the days she is at the other location, at the Opera Center Building, and the results here are usually released at 3 pm. I'm not sure if things are still the same, but do ask when you call her again.

Aloha!

Hey there! Thanks for the tips. I actually managed to schedule my medical for this Monday, at 9:30. I guess dr Toma must have changed her schedule or something because the girl from the clinic told me to be at the Baneasa clinic on Monday..

That aside, I know they take some blood samples and I just realised now that I forgot to ask the girl I spoke with on the phone if I have to go there without eating anything for those blood samples? What do you think?

Cheers!

Yeah, probably new year, new schedule..who knows?!

As far as the blood test goes, she told me, back then, in june 2013, that i can eat anything I want and drink coffee if I want, because they only do the blood test to see if you have any transmissible deseases, like syphilis,hepatitis..stuff like that. My pressure was a little low, cause I woke up that day at 5 am and didn't had my coffee and breakfast, but everything was ok. don't worry, they only take a very very small amount of blood

Good luck!
