Hi,

 

My fiance failed the medical test end the original interview was to be in Aug. The NOA2 expires in September and Luke's told her to wait 8 weeks to clear the test.

 

How do we file? I tried called the NVC and they told me to call the embassy in Philippines.

 

 

Additional Medical Examination (i.e., sputum test and culture for tuberculosis) if deemed necessary by St. Luke’s Extension Clinic. Applicant should complete the exam and obtain clearance from St. Luke’s before a visa interview can be scheduled. Three (3) days for sputum test; Results are released eight (8) weeks after sputum test is performed

If you can still get clearance by St. Lukes but it will take 8 weeks, which might cut it close or put you over the interview time, call the embassy. That's what was also suggested by the NVC too.

 

Good luck on the medical, and hope it turns out to be nothing!

not sure if this will work, but how about appearing in the interview as originally scheduled and then explaining there that the medical is still pending and that you'll send them the results once it's done?

 

or as others commented above, best to call the embassy and ask for NOA2 extension. the embassy has the power to extend, not NVC.
