Medical Exam - Dominican Republic

[Robert Estevez 24]

Hello, everyone! 

 

I'm a bit confused with the medical exam before my interview scheduled for April 6th. Is the medical walk-in or do I have to wait for an email sent to me and schedule an appointment? Also, I understand that the medical has to be at least 10 days before the interview, is this correct? Just want to clarify real quick that this is for Dominican Republic medical. 

Thank you for taking your time to read this and hopefully reply.

Hi, good morning!

After you have gone to the VAC and your case is ready in the USA Embassy in Santo Domingo, you can go to do your medical.

You dont need appointment, you just need to arrive early, before 11.00am.

They work from Monday to Friday.

You can get your results in 1 week but it is better if you go 10 or 15 days before your interview just in case that something happen with their system and so on.

Thank you replying! I went today to ask for the same information. I showed them the Appointment confirmation that was sent to me via email with the information about the appointment and VAC along with the bar codes of the number and my DS160. They told me I need that one and another paper that contains my NVC number. Where do I get the second one? Is that the one sent to my Fiancee in Florida from the NVC? Or do I need to call the embassy which I've done million times already. Thank you for helping with this, I'm really worried since I'm going to my medical next Monday and I need everything ready.

It is a pleasure to help.

what they are asking for is a letter that the embassy is suppose to send by email and mail box  to the petitioner.

but we never got that letter in the email, so I called a lot the embassy too but they kept saying that I didnt need that letter for the medical, so I emailed them and they sent the same answer that I was getting by phone.

I went to Consultorio de visas and I show them the Letter that NVC sent by email to my fiance, over there is all the information and the SDO Number.

Did your fiance get that letter?

if you got it you could  use that one and they should accept it because they did with me.

and the other choice that works with another girl was that she took a screenshot to the page in the CEAC where you check your visa status and it says READY, meaning that the case is ready for the interview.

That was in the other place called SERVICIOS MEDICOS CONSULARES.

Call them and find out, maybe they can help you.

Jesus Christ, God bless you! Thank you so much for the fast reply. My fiancée never got that letter by email but I'm going to tell her to call them. If not, then I'll just print the page where it says the case is ready with the cae number. Again, thank you so much

Amen

So if you dont get those emails, the one from the embassy or NVC, before you go, call to SERVICIOS MEDICOS CONSULARES and tell them that your case is ready and you will take that page there and ask the name of the person that take your call, and when you get there look for that person.

Hi all!

This was super helpful. So, I just want to make sure I understand everything. The medical and fingerprint appointment can only be done if your case is "ready" (not at the NVC or in Transit) correct?

Also, my fiance ran into some trouble obtaining his immunization records. The hospital he went to growing up in his hometown is not closed down, and they told his sister that they didn't have those records because they "were too old." I believe that is one of the requirements that he needs to bring to the medical appointment. 

Has anyone ran into these issues? Any suggestions? Thank you!

My fiancé is from DR, Santo Domingo and was told the same about his immunization records.  He had to redo all of them again.

You need to schedule the appointment(Cita) first. For that you need the NVC page with your case number to read "Ready". You're going to print that very same page with your case number assigned by NVC and your appointment letter and take it to the fingerprints and medical exam. If you wait for NVC to send you the letter with the case information then you'll be waiting for another 4 months (not exaggerating).

I didn't bring any previous medical record to my medical appointment and they said it was fine.

Thank you! I have another question.  Did you have to get any vaccines at your medical exam? My fiancé is thinking he will need more vaccines during the exam.
