Bunny :

I've been told that medical testing consist of full body physical test (which may/may not involve check for any existing bodily skin diseases) as well as a TB test. They will place the TB shot on your arm and you have to go back by around 48 hours to the same venue, for their reading of the effects of that shot. If it turns positive (due to itching, scratching or increased redness beyond acceptable circumference around the shot), then person may be subject to Chest XRay. By and large that is one thing that is a must go-through portion.

Other than that, there are vaccine shots that you have to be ready for and blood test for any communicable disease. Dont forget to take any past records of any vaccine shots that you may recently taken. Or else, they might administer you with multiple vaccines within limited time - which leads to fever (in many cases) in the following days. If possible, ask them to span out the shots to couple of days - (if your schedule allows).

At biometrics, they will fingerprint all fingers repeatedly, take a good facial photograph,(so wear a good tee or shirt) and retina scan images.

We wish you all the best.. do fill us in on your experience.. !

Quick question : If we are first-time travellers to USA with our immigration interview (in "still pending" - status) at the airport in USA, are we okay with buying a "one-way ticket" to USA, or are we expected to show up at the USA airport immigration with confirmation of a "two-way return ticket" ?

Silly Question :

Do i have to dress formally in suit for bio metrics too ??

I hope going for medical in my comfy lounge pants and tee-shirt is alright. Any advise guys

Wear something light, like a tee and jeans.

They may give you a shot or two, and\or a chest xray, so a tee is easier to take off if need be.

What visa would you be travelling on? If it's an immigrant visa, then a one-way ticket is totally fine' CBP officers know you're immigrating.

If it's a tourist visa, then of course gotta have a return ticket.

Bhai

Amerika to India biman ka tkt for my very own devil.

Flying from ktm.. Want to go to my soil once before going to amrika

???.. Correct us if wrong.. but isn't there a case where, once when you are given the immigration stamp on your passport, that you may not travel to anywhere else, except straight to USA ?

We were under the impression that between this stage and the point of reaching USA, if we travel to any other location/country - (for leisure or any other purpose), would disqualify us at interview at port-of-entry immigration interview and may even require additional freshly issued PCC from the country that you traveled to ??
