Pre-Existing medical conditions. Proof of coverage post interview?

My wife is abysmal at paperwork, and has left getting proof that her medical insurer will provide coverage for two pre-existing conditions (pernicious anaemia, and haemochromatosis) I have until it's essentially too late. They've sent them in the post, but it will be another two days before arriving, and they're refusing to send via email, and I have my interview at 9am tomorrow.

How will this affect me? Can I post or email the proof after the interview, or will I get a denial. I have every single other piece of paperwork bar that.

Thanks.

Was this something that you were required to do?

I assume so if you're doing it, i'm just not familiar with these issues.

I would think you'd be denied until you come back and provide the paperwork as proof.

OK, I've not seen this particular requirement or issue before, but what I have seen is someone missing something the interviewing officer wants to see (I wish I could recall what it was now - I think it was some form of relationship evidence).

In that case, the interviewing officer had approved the case contingent on the applicant sending the required, missing, documentation. I don't think you'll get a flat denial, I think you'll get the opportunity to add the missing document if the officer believes it is required to approve the case. I think they held the passport during that time, then issued the visa on receipt of the documents.

I'd just wait and see tomorrow, to be honest. Perhaps take a copy of any correspondence you've had with the insurers to show that the documentation is the the mail etc. I've not heard of someone requiring to show they had adequate insurance for an on-going medical condition, so I don't know how vital that is to visa approval. I assume your medical results were sent to the embassy? That's pretty important.

I HAVE seen one case requiring insurance.

I don't know what the result was, but they "denied" them during interview until proof of insurance was provided.

I might just be using the wrong terms. It could be in the case I saw that it was "denied" but then instantly "approved" on return of the documents.

I guess the question really is... what happened in that case? Did they send the documents later then the denial turned into an approval and the visa was issued OR was it a flat denial and reapplication? If it's the former, than it's really just a time delay/inconvenience thing, right?

I believe it really is called a denial.

Then there's a time frame to which they can provide the info in question before getting the "official" denial

Goes into what Darnell and others have discussed being 'hard' and 'soft' denials.

Like when you're denied for the AoS, you're denied until you come back with another sponsor.

Yeah, that makes sense.

It just seems like this one, in that case, should only be a "soft denial". Everything else should be in order, and if the medical has been received by the embassy, then they should be able to see what's what.

Hah. Nice gif.

Hey, let us know what happens! London is one of the more lenient, human, consulates to deal with by the sounds of things. Good luck. I'm sure it'll be okay. :)
