hi i would like to ask if i have any similar case around here. i arrived here in guam few days ago. and the immigration officer instruct me to visit a public health office and gave me the brown envelope (i guess its from st. luke). i read some had similiar case but it was there K2 who are positive in skin test. while in my case, i also undergo sputum test but result was negative. note that those k2 who have similar as mine all have guam as their POE.

Immigration was to open the brown envelope and process your papers. If you are near immigration, or you can call them, I would inquire to what are specifics of you having "the envelope". You should only have the CD and the DS-3025 form which if anything you would take to your local medical for additional review and possible completion of shots so you are incompliance to submit your AOS package after marriage.

That is normal for those that have done SPUTUM or DOT to have to contact the public health department.

Emmmmm thought only one brown envelope was packed in the visa package. Is medical inside of the main brown envelope?

Yes, you have to go to the public health office in Mangilao. My wife had to do the same thing when she came because of the sputum test. They will give you the test again and you have to go get an X-Ray at GMH. No big deal and it won't delay anything.

hey thanks sam.. what kind of test? and also do youre wife have to go to a civil surgeon for the vaccination?

[Hank_ 9,174]

You can get any vaccinations at the county health clinic, not required to use a civil surgeon for that.

[Greenbaum 12,259]

Be sure to get a receipt and documentation as to what vaccines you receive. County health is a great place to go for vaccines to save money.

thanks guys. the health office told me that their civil surgeon just retired. so i was instructed that after all my x ray and skin test i could get vaccination there also and i have to pay $40 for all of that. and just go to a civil surgeon to just verify/transcribe my vaccination and no need to redo the test. i just have to inform the civil surgeon i got it all in the health office..

That sounds reasonable.
