You read all these sad stories about people that go to their interview, told they are approved and then their visa sits in AP for months on end so while my fiance was told he was approved last week at the interview we were still nervous HOWEVER he got his visa today!!! Just 8 days after his interview! We could not have hoped for better, what a great day! Despite all the waiting (felt like years though it was really only 8 months) and all the rushing to gather the paperwork in time (we were only notified of the interview 2 weeks before it happened) it's all coming together and our dreams are turning into reality. heart.gif

I am so thankful for this site..... all the assistance we've gotten through other posters, new friends and the guides and example forms! star_smile.gif

Thank you very much :)

1. We were only notified of my fiance's interview 2 weeks prior so his medical appointment happened about a week and a half before his appointment (they were very understand when he called and were nice enough to squeeze him in between appointments in order to get it done on time).

2. He said that he was in the doctor's office about an hour or so. Because he was a last minute add-in they were super busy that day and didn't have time to do more than give him his shots and take the chest x-ray. They told him that they would read the x-ray later that night and if there was a problem notify him otherwise they would complete the report.

3. My fiance didn't have any vaccination records so I would guess that the doctor took a brief medical history from him and based what immunizations to give him off of that and knowing what is needed for the US. He told me that he's not entirely sure what he got (beyond Chicken Pox and Tetnus/Diptheria) but that he got about 3-shots in total (knowing how immunizations work I'm guessing there were multiple immunizations in a single shot). 4. My fiance got the call from the doctor's off in just under a week that his records were complete (his appointment was on a Wednesday and his records were complete by the following Monday). They did not forward his results, he was to pick them up. In fact, the doctor even stated that he would not release the medical records to anyone but Ab or a close personal friend/family member.

Hope this helps and Good luck when you have yours! :)
