One last thing I need to know regarding medical before my interview!

[AbigailWard 0]

I have all the documents I need and am ready to submit the application of readiness for my interview at the London embassy, the only thing is I have been instructed by the medical examiner in London to see a dermatologist for my skin condition. Except when I went to my GP regarding this, the doctor said I could be waiting for up to SIX MONTHS just to be seen UNLESS I wanted to go private and be seen faster.

Now, if it comes to me having to go private so things are done quicker, then so be it. But what I'm wondering is, if I end up going to the interview with none of my medical results having been sent to them beforehand - because the London doctors won't send any results off to them until they have all the details from a dermatologist - will they cancel my interview for a later date, or could I still be accepted?

I have researched this many times and all results have been conflicting. Some say you NEED the results or else you will be denied or the interview will be cancelled for a later date, and others say that they have personally gone to the interview without their medical results already being there (due to needing more info from their GP's regarding illnesses) and they were accepted but just had to wait to get the rest of their results before they could be sent their Visa.

Which is right? I really just want to submit the application of readiness now so that I can get the interview over with sooner. I am ready regarding everything else, just not with all the medical results.

Any help will be great. Thank you.

Anything you read that is not K1 London might not apply to you. Every country is different. Do your research on the London embassy instruction page. Read the third paragraph starting with "Please note" written in red http://london.usembassy.gov/iv/fiance_instructions.html

And clarify please. Did Knightsbridge say a dermatologist must report back to them before they will complete your medical? They gave you an instruction form to give to a dermatologist?

I have read that many times but I'm still not sure what they mean exactly. Does it mean all they need is the receipt or?

And Knightsbridge has sent a letter to my GP.

This is what the Knightsbridge doctor wrote: Please could you kindly refer this lady for a Dermatologist opinion to establish correct diagnosis and treatment.

Followed by this in print: Could you kindly send me further information regarding the above condition(s), including the details of any specialist care and investigations, current or previous treatment and likely prognosis.

When leaving Knightsbridge I asked the receptionist about what will happen to my results and she said they'd be ready in 2-3 working days - my appt was on the 15th July - but that if they have not got all medical details from my GP they will not be sending them out to the embassy until they have received them.

Okay I will modify what it says--

Please note that the interview will not be scheduled until the Immigrant Visa Unit (embassy) Is in receipt of (has received the full report of) the medical examination.

That means all your questions about interviewing and waiting on the medical to be finalized are not appropriate to your case because you will never get an interview until the embassy has those medical results in their hands. And nothing will be sent from the medical clinic until you arrange to get the information they need about your skin.

So get to a dermatologist as quickly as possible, even if you have to pay. Good practice for when you get to,the US and pay for medical care.
