Wait time to book the medical?

[Oaftobark 1]

Hi all,. Ill be booking my medical soon in london and was wondering what the wait time is?

 

Has anyone booked their medical recently and if so was there a long wait period for the next available slots? 

 

Wondering if ill be waiting a week, two weeks etc

 

Thanks

I called a couple of weeks ago to reschedule my medical and they had plenty of slots available a few days or a week in advance. Lots of people have to cancel (like I did initially) so there may be appointments available even sooner. 

 

For the interview current wait times are here, but as with the medical there may be cancellations allowing you to get a sooner appointment:

That list is not the information for K1s. They fall into under Immigrant Visa processing for interviews.

Thanks! I didn't realise. Hopefully the wait for K1 interviews is a little shorter.

Medical appointments were plentiful back in April when I went. They had a few within a few days notice. With the medical it’s better to get it over and done with ASAP so your results can be sent to and processed by embassy in time for your interview. You should follow up a couple of days after your medical to ensure that they have sent them.

Thats good to hear.  And when you call is it easy to schedule? Do you have to pay anything over the phone?

It’s all really easy and yes I think they took payment by phone. It’s a little private clinic in central London.

It can take a little while on hold before you get through (about 15 mins for me). I booked mine a bit in further out by necessity but they offered me an appointment around a week from when I called. They did not ask for payment in advance on the phone.

I booked mine waaay in advance, but was offered an appointment in that same week. I wasn’t given an option to pay over the phone, so guess I’ll be paying there!
