Question about the CD

[ScouseYank 1]

Hi everyone, i had my interview on tuesday and at the

first window the lady gave me a sealed CD,

does anyone know what it is?

and also i must take that with me on the day i travel to california

correct?

when i get my passport back, and i can tell my Boss

to go and do one !

cheers

Oliver, that is your chest X-ray from your medical. You need to carry the CD and the brown envelope that you will get with your returned passport as hand luggage.

DO NOT OPEN OR TAMPER with that brown ENVELOPE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

Yep - it's to show that you are clear of TB or any other respiratory issues.

No ESTA - you will have a CR1/IR1 visa that you travel with this time around.

Customs is customs like any other country - we've had different experiences at the same airport with our travels to the US.

I got told 2 weeks ago that I did not have enough documents to prove "that I'm actaully leaving the UK"...check it out here if you want to. There were some "abnormal" requests made by the CO that was dealing with me at the embassy. I got my visa today though!

The CD is actually of no further use for immigration. The option would be to throw it out or pass it on to you. Knightsbridge isn't keeping any of your records because they aren't your family doctor. They contract to the embassy so pass everything about you to them. Your X-ray was read and documented by a medical doctor and written on the report. The border guys at the airport aren't doctors and won't be reviewing a X-ray. If they needed to know something they would read the report which will be in that sealed envelope you hand over. Use it for a coaster or save it for your medical records. It's your souvenir.

also do you know what the procedure is once i book my flights and leave,
