Hello everyone, I am new to this web site so please bear with me.

My girlfriend will be applying for a B-2 visa and will need a physical exam. She lives in Davao, and was told she could have the exam there. Is this true?

Does she need to go to Manila, St. Lukes for the exam? I also read in the forum that the exam is a 2 day process. Is this correct also?

You may find your answers here: http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwhnv07.html

The exam will only take 2 days IF a TB test has to be administered otherwise it should only take one day if you are early and in line. People start lining up as early as 4:00 am and some at 3:00.

Only B-2 classified under having medical situations such as (1.) seeking for medical treatment by US-based specialists or (2.) planning to donate an organ to a family member in US, will take the medical exam in SLEC. Do check-out Krispykreme's link.

More info with links to specific requirements from USEM: http://manila.usembassy.gov/nivisatype.html

But if she's only applying for a visitor visa with tourism or short-term business purposes, nope, she doesn't have to go to SLEC. Good luck! :)
