I had my interview this morning and I received the blue 221g because when I had my medical I was pregnant and therefore was unable to have my X-Ray taken. This means another trip to the Docs to get this done. I was surprised because I was not asked to produce any evidence that my Fiance had met in the last two years so my highlighting and blacking out 4 ½ years worth of phone bills was a waste of time. I was asked one question and it was not pertaining to the relationship, it was about the one item on my police report.

Has any one else had experience of receiving a blue 221g?

I believe the 'code' for 221g is 'administrative processing' - basically meaning they need more information before they can issue the visa.

Did they not give you instructions to return once you've had the x-ray?

No, to the best of my knowledge I was told that once they have received the X-Ray then they will issue the visa.

I would have thought (and this is my opinion) that once you have the x-ray at the Knightsbridge Docs, the docs forward on the x-ray report to the Embassy and then they issue the visa.

I shouldn't think Spiritee needs to return to the embassy. The interview has been completed (incidentally, they didn't ask me for evidence either) all they need is the additional info from the docs.

Then in that case - no worries!!

I wouldn't think you'd need to return to the embassy, either - unless to take them your passport (or did they keep it?).

Hmmm, does this mean that a foreign fiancee who is pregnant at the time of her medical, must wait for her visa until she is no longer pregnant and able to have her x-ray? What if she is only 1 month in, does that really delay people 8 months?

Just curious.

Of course that's not what it means.

Frankly, I'm not sure why the doctor's at the medical didn't have the OP have an xray. I thought you could have an xray if you were pregnant - its just that they'd need to take slightly different precautions. Of course, I may be wrong - never been in that situation.

Had I attended the interview whilst I was pregnant I would not have had to have the X-Ray until I did the AOS.

I'm not sure I'm following this statement. Was your medical done before the visa interview at the consulate?

And if your passport was returned to you, then I'd imagine you'd have to get another appointment with them to drop off the xray with your passport.

I was told that the Doctors would forward the X-Ray to the Embassy.

Oh, I see. So the actual issue is that you need to chase down the whereabouts of the xray with Knightsbridge, and then once the embassy has it, get your passport to them.

The OPs child has a parent who is a US citizen. Why, then, would the child require a visa?
