Hi Pips,

My husband and I are currently starting to gather all the documents for the NVC this week.We got our approval for the NOA2 last Tuesday.

I have been looking around your blogs guys, but I'm getting confused so I decided to ask you folks,

When is the right time to do the medical in St. Luke's and also how do you get an interview date? :star:

Thank you ..

hi! first off congratulations on your approval!..

about the medical at st. Lukes, others go for an advance medical even if they haven't received their interview appointment letter yet.. i think they just bring their NOA2 hardcopy (in place of the interview appointment letter) at St. St. Luke's.. i guess others decide to go for an advance medical because they take into consideration any delays that the medical results might cause (like the dreadful sputum tests if they find any irregularities in your xray.. :wacko:)

as for me, I waited for my case to be completed at NVC and for my interview appointment letter before i took my medical exam.. i just had my med exam last Feb 16-17, 2010.. and i am so grateful to God i passed it! :yes:

about the interview date, NVC will be the one to set a date for you after your case has been completed..

read the NVC guides.. ready all your documents now so you could fly your way through NVC.. NVC stage is way faster than USCIS.. Good luck & God bless! :D

I'm the wife of an American Soldier;

I'm the hope that lives within him after storm clouded days.

The freedom from war that gives wings to his heart,

May they reach across the miles and bind our hearts together

against all that we must face in this world. ❤
