Have him go get the non-impediment in Kingston if he can. They get it back to you in 7 days, or you could get it in about 3 days if you want to pay for them to exipedite it.

:dance::dance: CONGRATS!!!

Make sure the medical is scheduled before the interview - when you call for your medical they will ask for your interview date and schedule you. We did ours in Kingston and it was exactly a week before interview - hopefully you will have more time between the two dates to make sure the medical info gets to embassy in time.

Do the non impediment asap - and remember to deny ANYTHING and EVERYTHING about ganga, whether it happened two years or 20 years ago! :whistle:
