No medical letter!!! But have an interview date!!!

[sapa_uscan 0]

2 days ago, I received my parent's interview letter (PDF) via email that states their interview is scheduled in Montreal for 2/9/2010.

Problem is that all I have is the PDF that came in the email. I also see in the PDF interview letter that they need to take a sealed medical envelop from the doctor to the embassy at the interview date.

Several questions:

Q1: Do they need to wait for the interview letter and medical letter to come in mail before my parents can go and get their medicals done?

Q2: If they are not able to get their medicals done by the interview date, is that something to be concerned about? Or can the medical be sent separately to the Montreal Embassy after the interview? Is the case in a pending status?

Q3: Do my parent's need to take 2 (5cm by 5cm) pictures to the doctor who will do their medicals?

Q4: What exactly needs to be taken to the interview? I see that people have taken pictures to show that the petitioner and parents are having a relationship? Do they need to gather some pictures in preparation for their interview?

Thanks for your feedback. Appreciate any insights!!

Congratulations!!!!!!!

They can print the PDF you received in email and they can use that letter to schedule appointment with Doctors to finish the Medicals and also can take the same PDF letter to the interview.

If the Medicals are not done before the scheduled interview date then you need to contact your embassy and re-schedule the interview to a later date as they will not let you in without the Medicals.

Yes, for Medicals also they need to take Photos.

The interview letter lists what needs to be taken to the Interview. Since it is IR-5 (parents category), photos are not required to prove the relationship between the petitioner and beneficiary as the Birth Certificate you submitted in both stages at I-130 and also at NVC stage (DS-230) proved the relationship and the reason why the case is approved.

Hope this helps...Good Luck!

Thanks, Raj
