We dont have an interview schedule yet..... waiting for the packet. My fiance' will be flying to Philippines in April 26th and will stay for 50 days. We will be spending 3 days in Manila and fly to Cebu and stay for the rest of the 50 days unless if we will have my interview within. Im sure I will have my packet by then but nobody knows when will be my medical and interview date til it arrives. My question is, is it possible to have my medical in advance to the date to what it says in the packet? Im thinking it would save us money if I can have my medical during our 3 days in Manila. I dont like the idea of having a week gap from medical exam to the interview date... it is pretty spendy to stay in Manila but I know I have no choice.

Thanks in advance!!!

OMG...this shouldnt be here!!!! Im sorry

If you have appointments (according to USEM website) already, then it's ok to have the medical done ahead of time without your Packet 4. Just prepare a printed schedule from the website, your I-129F NOA2, 2x2 pictures, your passport and medical fee and they will accomodate you at St. Lukes. Many of us here had our medical done at least 2-4 weeks before our scheduled physical/interview and did well. It has been advised here to do it earlier in case something will come up i.e. sputum test, health problems, etc. It will give you time to resolve it without jeopardizing or causing delay on your interview appointment.

Good luck!
