Interview letter receive by email or mail ?

and at this stage ,Shall I take medical appointment by end of April?

It was received by email. If NVC has your email, then interview letter will be emailed but do not expect to receive an interview letter with an interview date until first week of May.

Wait till you receive an interview letter. You will have to bring interview letter to the medical appointment.
