Hey all,

Awaiting a date for the medical and interview for my husband. He has to fly to South Africa for the medical - does he need to bring previous medical records with him? If so, what type?

Also, he was treated for mild TB a long time ago - does anyone know how this will affect the medical exam and if it will be a longer process?
