Does anyone knows if the embassy forwards your query to consular officer, how long it will take the consular officer to reply? Please help 

Are you asking about the interview letter from NVC?

No, Actually my friend’s husband already had his interview he got banned for one year because of failed medical test, now that time period is over He had to take his medical again. And we contacted the embassy they said We forwarded your query to consular officer that’s what asking how long it will take him to reply.

So basically my friend applied for cr1 spouse visa. Everything went fine. Her husband had his interview on nov 22, 2019. On interview he admitted drug use and got banned for one year. The officer told him everything else is fine and he will have to contact embassy and redo his medical after one year and meanwhile he has to go for random tests Where he took his medical, which he did. Now one year is over so he contacted the embassy. The embassy told him to contact physician and do medical again but when he contacted physician panel they said his case needs to be updated or the embassy should send them something so they can do the test again. 
so he again contacted the embassy and this time  they said they forwarded his query to consular officer. We want to know what’s the procedure in this case after the ban is over, how will things work from here if anyone can help. And please no judgements. Thanks.

CR1 visa case. Guys about MEDICAL. If you spouse is missing some vaccination or something. Do they give you those vaccination shots upon finding ur missing some ON SPOT? or you have to get ur  ''medical house'' in order on your OWN before the exam ?

Depends on the clinic.  Best to read reviews here about what happens at the one you're planning to use.
