So my dad is at St Lukes today for his medical, they told him to return at 2pm. What are the documents he has to receive? 

Would he be receiving the result? or the St Lukes will forward it to the Embassy? any specific documents? TIA

At 2PM when your dad returns he will be informed to go to vaccinations or SPUTUM testing.

Thanks Hank_

 

He was scheduled for Sputum testing and his interview will be rescheduled by St Lukes  sounds like. Test will be on May 9-11.

 

How many weeks until Father will get the result? 

 

Anyone had a experience lately on  how many weeks or months to get the interview schedule assuming he's clear after the 11th of May?

 

I am gathering some information to know what month can I go back and take him back with me because work requires few months to ask for a vacation leave.

 

Thank you everyone.

Won't be cleared after the 11th.  If the 3 day is positive your dad will have to start the DOT treatment for TB for 6 months. If the 3 day SPUTUM is clear then it goes to the 60 day culture test, if that comes back negative your dad will be scheduled for vaccinations and you can then reschedule the interview.   If positive.. he starts DOT (Direct Observation Therapy, meaning he has to go to SLEC to receive the medication on a regular schedule)

With all of that said, I know it is a bit of a setback... don't get upset... TB kills.   Be glad this is being checked.   Hopefully at the end of 60 days all will be fine.

 

Did SLEC say they would cancel your dad's current interview and reschedule at a later date?  I ask because they had stopped doing that some time back.   Once you know something with the SPUTUM you may want to contact the embassy to verify the appt was cancelled, if it wasn't you can handle that then.
