My petition was approved now I wait for my medical exam and consulate interview.

Could anyone give me a run down of the medical exam before my interview?  Thank you!

When I did it they basically checked things like pulse, blood pressure, took a blood and urine sample, and also gave me some vaccinations (you can get these from your GP for free). The only advice I would give is don't smoke any pot before your medical as I saw online that somebody had and they were rejected a visa.

I had the medical on an earlier date from my interview, so mine may be a little different. But my interview was like this:

 

Arrived at the Embassy, entered and went through a security check. Was then given a ticket number and asked to go to a first officer once my number was called, who checked I had all the necessary paperwork (forms, medical, financial support documents). I was then told to sit down, and was called up to speak to a second officer who asked the following: 

 

How we met?

What I did for work? 

What my fiancé did for work? 

Had my fiancé travelled to the UK to see me at all? 

What our wedding plans were?

 

After answering all of these, the officer told me everything looked good and I would be issued the visa. I gave them my passport, which I received with the visa 9 days after my interview. 

 

Hope this helps!
