CR1 approved. Can I know my medical results?

[ecm89 0]

Hi all!

 

I had my interview this morning at the Consulate in Naples and they approved my visa request. Yay!

 

I have got a question. Is it possible to have the results of my medical appointment? How do I know everything went ok? I am a bit paranoid when it comes to health so I’d like to know I have no issues. I thought the medical appointment had be passed completely to have an approval but then I read stuff about class a and b IV. Can someone please clarify?

 

Also, I was not given a sealed envelope which wasn’t even mentioned. I was only given an open one with a form, a receipt, and the cd of my chest X-ray. Is it normal?

 

Thanks for any possible help.

How things are processed for the visa application vary with each embassy.  It appears your medical file was sent to the embassy directly.    No you do not get a copy of the medical.

Yes, I had my medical appointment the day before they interview and they gave the results straight to the consulate. So, if I needed treatment for something, they wouldn’t even let me know?

I believe it is sometimes possible to request a copy of the medical from the doctor directly. You won't, however, receive a copy from the Embassy/Consulate. If you were deemed Class A you would not have had your visa approved. Class B is for those who have/have had medical conditions that may be considered significant but don't deem you inadmissible. 

 

Keep in mind that the medical is there to check off very specific conditions outlined by US immigration Law. If you wan't to make sure you are in good health you should have a physical performed by your own physician.

Of course I should, but since I paid 220 euros and they wanted me to do very specific tests which I would have not probably done normally, I’d like to know the results for my references. That’s it. 😊

Well look at it this way. If any of the tests they did (Syphilis, gonorrhea, TB) had come back positive, It would be a Class A condition and you would be inadmissible for immigration. The fact that you were approved, you can safely assume you don't have any of these

You won't get a copy of the medical. If they found something you would be required to get treatment before the medical would be released.

If there was something wrong they would tell you - we have had cases on here where  something cane up that wouldn’t stop the visa but the medical giving people told them to get it followed up (heart murmur)

Ask the clinic if you can get a copy of the medical report. I asked for just that during my medical. I received an exact copy of the medical the embassy got on the same day the embassy received the original.
