Medical before Packet 3 arrives

[joeyjoey 1]

I want to give Fernanda sound info before I send her to the Doctor to begin the things for the Medical. Yep, she's stressing already. Poor baby! SO I am here to get some clarity on what to tell her.

I read this on the Brazil Consulate review thread regarding the Medical.

"The beneficiary would then attend the first appointment, get the vaccine shots and other exams needed and return to the doctor to complete the medical after getting the NVC number case."

- Does this mean she can get everything done and then return to the Doctor to have him sign off on the

paperwork from the Consulate once it arrives?

- What are "other exams needed"?

- Exactly what does she need to say when she makes this appointment?

- I guess she can go to any Doctor for starters and then go to the Consulate appointed Doctors in her city of

Belo Horizonte to complete things? Or should she go only to the Consulate appointed Doctors?

The goal is to get things done as fast as possible and get her packet 3 to the Consulate before it arrives at her house. I want my baby here NOW!! I'm sure ya'll can relate to that!

Thanks in advance.

- It means Fernanda would call one of the appointed doctors to either schedule an appointment or to get to know which vaccines she'll have to take (or show that she's taken). To complete the medical, she'll need the NVC number case, her passport and a 3x4 cm picture.

- Other exams: X-ray, blood tests (for HIV and syphilis) and some of the girls were asked to get a basic gynecological exam from their doctors.

- She has to say she's applying for a fiancee visa with the U.S. consulate in Rio.

- Only to the appointed doctors. Ask her to call them and they'll explain what they'll need her to do.
