Hi guys,

I am just curious, can my husband go get his medical taken care of now? I received an email stating our case has been completed. Along with the email was a link for the Immigrant Visa Check list, so I clicked on the link. As I was reading the check list It states that the following:

A medical exam is valid for one year from date of completion if there are no health-related ineligibilities identified. A valid medical exam is required to enter the US on an immigrant visa.

Date of Medical Exam: ______ Expiration Date (one year later): _______

Then as I got done reading this link/Check list I noticed it is dated 12/8/2010, therefore it is not really current? I am asking since we are not sure where his vaccinations are at?? I assume that he will be ok. He has been to the US in the past so I am sure his shots will be a few maybe?

Anyone know if he can just go and get it handled now. The lady at the NVC call center said "I can not guarantee this" but I assume he will be scheduled for a DEC appointment>

Please advise....

I am always trying to be one step a head of things :blush: :blush: :blush:

It also shows that the fee for the visa is $355, not the $240. Why can't they send us updated information/links???

They will not schedule medical appointment without his interview date. Then they will schedule it at least 10-15 days prior to his interview, so that he will have time to pick up his medical packet. Have him complete the medical form that you can get online and take it with him.

As far as the form, all government forms have a date on them at the bottom that lets you know when the form was deemed a current/active form. My checklist was dated 2009.

Here is the link to the state http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/types/types_2991.html
