Thank you for the info! I might do that too. But where did you see that the wait times for the doctor was 5-6 weeks? Can i also ask you how long after the medical exam you had your interview? 

Nika P is right, I just checked the reservation roster.

Regarding my interview, I had my interview 7 days after the doctor appointment, because I took an estimated guess on when I would get the interview and booked the appointment in advance.

Oh waaw okay thank you! I just had one more question about the medical. Did you ask for a copy of the medical results so you’ll be able to submit that with the form I-485? (So there is no medical check needed in the US).

I did not ask for a second copy, but you receive a personal copy in any case in a smaller envelope with your results.

 

I don't think it's necessary to include the medical with the I-485 as long as you're doing AOS soon after entry I thought, since we have done one prior entry? Can anyone confirm this?

I dont know im still researching everything. 
 

i thought you needed this https://www.uscis.gov/i-693 when you file for I-485. Meaning you’ll have to do a medical check in the US But ive read somewhere that you can use the medical exam you had in belgium as long as you have a sealed envelope with the info. But i cannot find where i read that atm. I’ll try to look for it.

 Nvm i looked at the instructions for the form  693. I read it wrong. Its just the vaccination requirements that you’ll have to proof again??

Sorry for the confusion.

 

What if I am a K nonimmigrant visa holder and already had a medical examination overseas?
If you were admitted as a:
A. K-1 fiancé(e) or a K-2 child of a K-1 fiancé(e); or
B. K-3 spouse of a U.S. citizen or a K-4 child of a K-3 spouse of a U.S. citizen; and
C. You received a medical examination prior to admission, then:
(1) You are not required to have another medical examination as long as you file your Form I-485 within one year of an overseas medical examination; and
(a) The panel physician did not find a class A medical condition during your overseas examination; or
(b) The panel physician did find a class A medical condition, you received a waiver of inadmissibility, and
you have complied with the terms and conditions of the waiver.
(2) Even if a new medical examination is not required, you must still show proof that you complied with the vaccination requirements. If the vaccination record (DS 3025) was not properly completed and included as part of the original overseas medical examination report, you will need to have the Part 10. Vaccination Record completed by a designated civil surgeon. In this case, you must submit Parts 1. - 5., 7., and 10.
of Form I-693.

Right, i have read this before as well. What confuses me still is whether you still need to provide vaccination records. If all were completed before/at the medical in origin country, do you still need to provide a new vaccination record, or is this only if part of your vaccinations were not completed at the time of the medical?

 

I find the wording a bit confusing.

I KNOW! That’s also the case with every single one of their other documents!! It’s honestly so annoying.

 

But i do not know myself. if you happen to find an answer please let me know!
