Your Husband is to pick every medical result from where he had his medical exams, add it to all his documents, and present them together the day of his interview.

I was called on monday from Holy Trinity Hospital to come for my medicals results. I'm in Kumasi due to that i have not gone yet. I have Accra going on 11/12 for one shot of my vaccination. I'm going to pick my medical exams result and Police clearance Certificate from CID head office on 11/12 when I'm there for the vaccination.

Is only the vaccination that the give the applicant copy. Please Every one here should His/Her tell Baby not to open any closed result given out. Those ones are to present to the CO the day of interview.

Efia, pls ASK YOUR HUSBAND should go for his medical exams result from where he had his medical examinations.

Thank you. May lord keep you and open blessing doors in Your lives

Someone mentioned emailing the consulate. I emailed them just about monthly for an entire year and never got a response. I did email the ACS in Ghana and got a response from them. They said that they forwarded my email to the consulate people, but I still didn't get a response. Some people have been able to move their interview dates up, but they were at the consulate in person to do this. I attempted to get our interview date moved up when I was there, and I was unsuccessful. Good luck to everyone.

I had the exact same experience also with the Ghana embassy replying back to my email inquiries..... I know a former vj member was able to move her hubbies interview date up but she was living in Ghana at the time and I think she knew someone who had a contact at the embassy. I am not sure how much weight senators have with embassies but I definitely think with the senators' office contacting them, you will at least get some type of response back from them rather the Ghana embassy just ignoring and dodging your questions (as they usually do to most of us going through their embassy).
