In the Philippines that would require a separate psychological exam and that doctor can recommend additional treatment but I have never heard of a denial.  Delays yes, denials no.

PHILIPPINES ONLY!!!  CFO (Commission on Filipinos Overseas) INFO - Can't leave home without it!

 

PDOS (Pre-Departure Registration and Orientation Seminar) is for ages 20-59.  Peer Counseling is for 13-19 years of age.

It is required to have the visa in their passport for PDOS and Peer Counseling.

 

GCP (Guidance and Counseling Program) is for K-1 Fiancee and IR/CR-1 spouse ONLY.

I do not know how the Embassy handles that in Pakistan but the psych exam in the Philippines has to be done by the Embassy approved medical facility and only after the exam is ordered by that medical facilities doctors.  I assume you can bring paperwork with you but the Embassy probably requires the exam be done by their doctor and in accordance to the requirements of the US Surgeon General.
