I have not had this experience but a family friend of mine did. And after they performed the sputum test which thank God returned negative they we're able to reschedule their interview. But if it's positive for active Tuberculosis than you will have to undergo treatment for 6-9 months I believe. Sorry this happened try contacting the clinic or embassy for more information.

After their interview does she have to wait for some treatment or that's all after the sputum culture is negative..

If the sputum is negative than she would be considered negative for active Tuberculosis. If the test were positive then I believe she would need treatment. But she should definitely contact the clinic for more info.Lets pray that it will be negative
