Yes i got it by afternoon itself.

They told me that it was easier for me to get it same day since i was filing induvidually unlike compared to a number of members of a family.

I did over hear them telling to a family of a mother and two kids that it will be ready only by tomorrow afternoon.

I got two sealed envelopes,

First containing documents related to my history of vaccinations,past illness and test results done on the medicals day.

Second was an envelope with the X ray which they told will have to be shown at POE.(not required at interview)

Im going to be free for the coming three weeks and have a ton lot of relatives to visit and say goodbye! and shop a lot too!! :content:

Yes ,go ahead and take appointments for both biometrics and medicals.

As long as you have the interview letter,its fine to complete these steps.You will need the IL and passport photos for the biometrics along with DS 260 confirmation page which they will stamp.

My interview is on 08 July and i just completed the Medicals yesterday.

Since the Consulate is quite far from my place,i planned to do the biometrics the day before the interview.

On other news,CEAC has updated to 'Ready'. :thumbs:

Usually the biometrics is done before the Interview date.

Its better to call up the embassy and ask them directly about this matter since your interview is just two weeks away.
