Hello, I'm posting here regarding some concerns I have in which I haven't been able to find an answer to. Just as a little backstory, my fiancée (from norway) and I were engaged in January. The following month, she was in a very serious car accident, resulting in surgery to remove part of her skull. Although it was very bad at the time, things have progressed tremendously and she is on her road to recovery, and our wedding plans are still intact, thankfully. We just received the NOA2 approval and I'm concerned that she will not be able to fly to Sweden for her interview or for the medical. Is there a way to delay the process a little bit? Also, I was wondering if due to the accident and the surgery that was involved, will that create a problem with her immigration? We don't expect there to be any limitations during her recovery and expect her to be completely and totally back to normal life. Any answers will be appreciated!

Yes, you can delay up to a year by waiting with the medical (which happens in Oslo), and not submitting ds160. Email the embassy and they will let you know the requirements.

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.

First of all, I'm glad to hear your fiance is doing well. Must have been very scary to go through this and be apart!

You can definitely postpone medical and interview. Just let the embassy know so they extend the expiration date on your application. I believe you can postpone up to a year though I'm going to let other users confirm this.

Also I believe she will do her medical in Norway and they will send the results to the US Embassy in Stockholm. I don't see why her accident would have any effect on her medical and immigration journey :)
