In my opinion, it is better that you set your interview appointment first before having your medical exam. What if you had your medical exam done on feb 28, then upon setting your interview appointment on March 1, you found out that the earliest date available is May 2? Just remember, the date of your medical exam is tied up with the expiration of the visa. So if you had your medical on feb 28, count 6 months from that day then it'll be the expiry of your visa. It's your choice anyway, i'm just sharing my thoughts. I hope it helpssmile.png

Sorry, I don't agree with this. When you submit your Notification of Readiness form to the embassy it asks for the date of your medical. Additionally, the embassy won't schedule your interview until after they've received the results of your medical.

Also, please note, you DON'T get to choose the date of your interview. You'll be notififed of this after they receive your medical results - this is usally 4-6 weeks later (depending on which embassy you're attending).

It's better to schedule your interview and then at least 1 week prior to the date go get your medical exam done. Last I saw, interview dates are booked all the way to March if not up to April. Approved visa expiration is tied in to the date of your medical exam.

Why are you wanting to wait until after the medical to schedule your interview appointment?

You can schedule your interview after the medical if you have the letter from NVC with the MNL # , St. Luke's wants something with the MNL# either from NVC or USEM, this is listed on their website.

This is the Philippines... that isn't how it is done.
