Approved Pending Medical

[Ariethesiren 18]

Hi, My husband lives up in the north of Scotland and is traveling down to London for his visa and medical. His medical is the 27th of November and interview is 28th, I know his visa will probably end up being approved pending his medical, but does anyone know how long this can delay him getting his visa? Thank you!

Normally they state " give 7 to 10 days " between medical and interview. Then another 7 to 10 days to recieve vih.

my fiancé is doing the same thing only on November 15th and 16th. Saves the extra trip

Different consulate (Auckland), but my husband's interview was scheduled for three days after his medical, and the medical documentation was not received by the consulate until the day after the interview.  It created a few extra days of administrative processing, but all the same he had his visa in hand 11 days after the interview.

We are currently in a similar situation.. My fiance had his medical on the 3rd but they needed more information about a surgery he had, that took us a while to get. He was approved pending medical at his interview on Wednesday and Knightsbridge finally got their information today. I will keep you posted and let you know when they send everything over and how long it takes to get approved. xx
