medical timeline for k-2

[jasoncerri 2]

Hi all,

We are getting ready to schedule our interview, ASC, etc but I had a question. My fiances daughter is coming as well and she needs to do her medical. She is 9 years old. Under the instructions listed on the Juarez consulate website, it states that we should give 4 working days in order for medical results to be processed for children under 14 years old.

We were thinking of going the week of 4th of July, but I'm not sure if the medical clinics are open. Does anyone know?

I guess my round-about question is has anyone been through the k-2 medical process and when are the results typically available? If we do the exam on a Monday, would we be okay to do the interview on Thursday, or better to be safe and wait to do it on Friday?

Thanks all for your input.

Nice to know that you are taking a kid too. please don't forget to write a review

I called the medical clinic and they said it takes 3 days, this is, you go to the medical early Monday, for instance, and you get it Wednesday pm. I asked 'what if I go early Friday?' She said 'then you come Monday pm and you can have you interview Tuesday. Call the clinic to ask, but it's not 4 days. We called twice, to make sure

Are you taking a notarized letter signed by the father?

Hi Sarah&Michael,

My next step was to call the clinics, but it looks like you beat me to it! I think I will call them as well and I will let you know if they tell me anything different. Thanks for the good info, as I was actually thinking of doing the same thing on a Friday, so I can use two less days of vacation and save them for later.

Looking at your timeline, I am looking to schedule the appointment around the same time. I'm probably going to schedule it tonight or tomorrow at the very latest.

My fiance did get a notarized letter signed by the father that allows her daughter to leave the country and immigrate to the US. At first he didn't want to sign it...but long story short, he eventually did it.
