Should I order my ACRO police certificate now? I received the NOA2 on 31st December 2018.

How will I know if I received the vaccines I need? Will my doctor have a record?

Ordering it now will be fine - it needs to be issued within the last 6 months at the time of the medical exam.

 

vaccines you need are, contact your doctor if you’re not sure. Td(ap) are available on the NHS as a travel vaccine. You should have MMR, and the other two won’t matter at this time of the year

 

• Td or Tdap - Tetanus/diptheria/pertussis or get DT, DTP or DtaP and it will be accepted for AOS also. The latest shot must be no longer than 10 years ago or you need a booster. If you have a record of receiving pertussis, then the Td is okay for the booster.
• MMR - (if born in 1957 or later)-Mumps/measles/rubella. It's two doses in your life, but if you get the first dose, and 4 weeks haven't passed by your medical, they will waive the second dose for "insufficient time interval". If you only had one dose as a child, get a second one before the medical.
• Varicella - Not routinely given in the UK . A history of having chickenpox excuses you from the shot. They take your word for it at the visa medical exam.
• Influenza – Required during flu seasononly, October 1 through March 31. This was a new recommendation dated November 2010 for all ages over 6 months. Older lists will say flu shots for over age 50. It changed. The list on the London embassy website is out of datesince 2009. Don’t follow it.

Are you sure you received the NOA2 on December 31st? Your timeline says that was your NOA1. Don’t order the ACRO certificate until approval or closer to that

Hi All! I got a question. My NVC case status is "AT NVC" Can I pay the visa fee and schedule an interview in advance? My worry is the earliest available interview sched in my country is May 7. I intend to pay the visa fee this week then schedule the interview 6 weeks from now. Would that be fine since probably before the interview, I have already received the packet from our embassy? I just want to secure a slot for May 7-10 2019. Upon research through the US govt. websites, I found out that the visa payment is valid of 1 year and the interview schedule can be rescheduled twice, so I was really wondering I can just pay for the visa and schedule the interview before receiving the packet.

 

Timeline:

-NOA1               : Oct 22, 2018

-NOA2               : Feb 25, 2019

-NVCCase num: Mar 20,2019

 

**Current Status: AT NVC**

 

Looking forward to your response. Thank you in advance!

Based upon the information in the email I think it was sent to the email address I used when I created the account at the new site.
