Thanks for responding. One last question regarding the medical. Did you have to go twice, once for lab work and then a little later for the actual review? What were the dates in relation to your interview? Many thanks!
Sorry - one more question. Regarding your ASC biometrics - did you arrange an appointment through the YATRI system? Thanks

No worries, If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact me I will answer as soon as I can. Yes I went there twice. I actually asked the doctor if I could go ahead and do some of the exams already before my consultation with her and she actually said yes. So I went to the clinic and she told me all the exams I had to do. Then on the same day I did all of them. On the day of the actual consultation I had to take 3 vaccines then that was it.
The US Consulate scheduled my appointment at the RIO ASC on the same day of my interview. The Rio ASC even called my phone number 3 times to confirm I was going there.
