Father's Medical Questions

[Chantel 0]

So my father's interview finally was scheduled on the 2nd day of May. I thought it might be a good idea to plan his medical early like middle of April. It's been a while and I can't keep up with what's the rules for medical and visa interviews are like now a days.

My questions are as follows:

 

1. Do I have to register his medical online in the St Luke's Website?

2. He has few medicines for his daily maintenance including insulin when he needs it. Does he need to get a medical certificate from his Doctor for all the medicines he is taking? 

3. With his immunization record, he had some vaccinations over the past several years, where to get the record? He goes to different Doctors I remember.

4. What courier to register to send his visa if it's approved? 

5. What is the chance of him not getting approve in regards to his health? Kinda worried about this but he has a heart and blood pressure pills he takes everyday aside from his insulin he takes when he needs it (he is 72 yr old)

 

Any input is very much appreciated. Thank you kindly.

My questions are as follows:

 

1. Do I have to register his medical online in the St Luke's Website? No you do not have to register him online but if you do, it can save time once he is checking in for his appointment.

 

2. He has few medicines for his daily maintenance including insulin when he needs it. Does he need to get a medical certificate from his Doctor for all the medicines he is taking?  No he does not need any medical certificate.

 

3. With his immunization record, he had some vaccinations over the past several years, where to get the record? He goes to different Doctors I remember. He does not need his immunization record as they will determine what is needed based on interview and blood tests. But, if you can secure one it would be reviewed by the Doctor.

 

4. What courier to register to send his visa if it's approved? No registering of a courier is required. USEM uses 2go and the costs are included in his visa fee.

 

5. What is the chance of him not getting approve in regards to his health? Kinda worried about this but he has a heart and blood pressure pills he takes every day aside from his insulin he takes when he needs it (he is 72 yr old). Heart and blood pressure are not disqualifying factors when USEM is evaluating his visa application. Only communicable diseases are disqualifiers.

 

Any input is very much appreciated. Thank you kindly.

Greenbaum covered your questions.

 

As for when to do the medical, the requirements have changed slightly in the past couple years.  Now that the applicant carries the medical file to the interview you can do both easily within a few days of each other.  (barring TB issues)

Thank you Hank_  I would probably still send them to the medical on the 24th to make sure everything will be done on time. A week before his scheduled interview.
