K1 Medical Exam São Paulo

[Landurerason 3]

Hello,

 

My fiancé is planning to do the medical exam in São Paulo, Brazil. Is it possible to do everything required for the K1 medical exam in one day? We are living a far from São Paulo, so we want to save as much time as possible. 

 

Obrigada!

Answering my own question for anyone that may be in the same situation. We called São Paulo and we were told that we can do everything needed in one day for the K1 medical exam. We were emailed a bunch of forms to fill out. However, it is much more expensive than we originally thought. For everything EXCEPT the vaccinations, the cost is R$1.200. 

 

In addition, it takes ONE WEEK to receive the document from the medical exam from the interview. We were told this could get sent to us if the doctor agrees, or we can pick it up. Since we live so far from São Paulo, we're hoping that the doctor will send us the documents.

Hello @Landurerason I did all my exams in Sao Paulo. Just so you know I have already gone through that phase, and currently on the AOS stage, but going back to your point.

Yes you can do everything in one day, yes it is very expensive, yet you can finish all the exams in one day you would need to get back to the medical appointment to receive your packet which is something I recommened, why? K1 visa is a long journey, and although they offer you the option to send your packet direct to the embassy I`m sure you dont want anything to go wrong and delay all of your process.

 

Like I said, if possible, visit SP again one week later to get your packet at the Medical Office your attended initially. One thing you want to make sure, give some time between the interview (which is supposed to be in Rio) and receiving your medical docs.

 

Feel free to ask any questions and I will be happy to help since I know how complex this process can be specially at the beginning.

@Landurerason one thing though, make sure you save all initial docs, all the relationship proof you had, have and will have.....everything will be needed again for the AOS. Ahhhhh last but not least, save some money, AOS will require another chunk of  $$ and in US Dolar.

Actually, they are sending the documents from the medical exam directly to our address using SEDEX. The doctor's office also sends you a tracking number.

 

Thank you for offering your help! VJ has been so helpful throughout this process.

Hi, hope you both can help me with some information. I'm expecting my NOA2 anytime soon so I'm researching the next steps. About the medical exam, there is anything I could bring to help the process? Previous exams, a medical record or my vaccine info? 

 

And why so expensive, how is the consult? 

 

Any information is welcome, thank you!
