i have done my medical and it was just nothing....nothing to worry....its just a simple blood check,vision check (eye) , chest X-ray and finally a physical exam by a doctor.Pls bring the original passport, a photocopy of the biographic data sheet, copy of the interview letter and 4 U.S. passport size (2 x 2 inch) photographs and vaccine documents if any. i was given 2 forms and was instructed to complete my details as per passport.
As a next step i was directed to the blood draw room and a nurse took my blood sample for investigation.VDRL being the only blood investigation required.
The next step in the process was an examination by an optometrist.
then I was directed to the X-ray room for a chest X-ray
then i met with a doctor,the physician started by asking my basic details inquired about my past medical history if I had any major medical or psychiatric illnesses in the past. He listed a number of illness and asked me if I had suffered from any of these including malaria, Hansen’s disease (leprosy), Hepatitis, any major psychiatric illnesses, suicide attempts etc (none of which I suffered in the past).I was asked for the vaccine documents and I reported that I had none. So the physician wrote a prescription for the list of vaccinations required..the following are the list of vaccinations which i have revived.1.MMR 2.Varicella 3. Influenza but the 4 th one "Tdap vaccine" was not available with them and she wrote in that medical sheet "Tdap vaccine not available", she said this vaccine is shortage in india and its ok..
..Thats all about my medical...I repeat its simply nothing !!! only thing is that we needs to wait from 9.30 to 4 pm to complete the entire processes/formalities..
I paid usd 83 (medical + vaccine)..got the report on the same day.
All the best for medical....

Awesome! See I told you they don't care about the asthma at all ;) You're almost done! Hope they give a you an earlier date next week. I admire your strength to put up with this terrible immigration process, the separation and 2 teenagers at home. It's already hard to deal with the first two.. the teenagers (my students) I could luckily send home at 5pm every day :D

Just got the courier email and my visa is due to be delivered on Monday :D

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered
September 30th 2016: Check cashed
October 3rd 2016: NOA1 received with receipt date of 09/28/16
November 3rd 2016: Biometrics received with appointment date of 11/14/16.
November 14th 2016: Attended biometrics appointment

February 26th 2018: I-751 case number (aka the NOA1 receipt number) becomes trackable
March 14th 2018: Submitted service request due to being outside of processing time.

March 15th 2018: ROC approved. 535 days (1 year, 5 months and 17 days)

March 29th 2018: Card being produced

April 4th 2018: Card mailed out

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

October 31st 2018: Potomac sends out a notice stating they have closed out my I-90 per my request. Yay for no duplicate card drama.
