IR-5 medical result 2021

[Jho369 13]

Our parents is doing their medical examination right now and they said our dad had problem with his lung, and is required additional test, of which they said it can take 4-5 months for results plus treatment time. Has anyone had anything like this and what can we do to expedite the result or expecting? We are not sure what to do 😩😩😩.

Sounds like TB.  

 

If he has TB, then he will need to get that treated in VN before the US Consulate will issue an immigration visa.  There's no way to expedite around this.

Probably TB, which is endemic in many Asian countries.  There isn't anything you can "do" except to follow the instructions if he still wants the visa.

 

And no, you cannot 'expedite' the treatment for TB.
