Hi all,

I was just wondering whether or not it is possible to schedule the visa interview without first having submitted the results of the medical examination or whether the embassy will only give you a definite interview date and time after they have received the results of the medical examination.

Any information would be massively appreciated :)

The embassy will schedule the Interview for you. They'll ONLY schedule the interview after they've received the medical results.

You can expect the interview to be scheduled approx 1 month after receiving the results from the medical.

Forgot to mention, you MUST file the DS-160, form of readiness and have already had your medical exam before they'll issue the interview date.

the embassy gives you an interview date after you have completed your medical, ds 160 and your readiness form. The medical and readiness form can be completed in any order. Once the embassy has all three of these look out on the ceac website for updates and your letter will then be sent

Thank you for the very helpful responses. I also have one more question: after the medical examination (if everything else has been sent through) how long does it usually take between the medical examination and the interview date that they issue?

Again, thanks for the quick responses :)

There are at least three recent threads asking the same question. Do your homework and look down the topic list and read all the different responses because there is no specific answer.
