    Hey, sorry I can’t advise you but I have suggested to the mods to move to the Philippines sub forum as they are super knowledgeable and helpful over there and could point you in the right direction

    chrismanilyn got a reaction from Tahoma in problem with my cenomar   
    Others may know in detail, but i wouldnt imagine it would threaten denial, just potential delay...I would fix it. For us, we had a missing doc and it delayed us 2 months...if you leave the interview and are given a form requiring submission of a doc, you are back at the mercy of their workload and schedule

    chrismanilyn got a reaction from Aileen&Brian in Latent Tuberculosis- K2 Visa   
    Just informational post:
    After receiving my (now) step daughter's (3 yr old) K2 visa from the US Embassy in Manila, I notice under the annotation section "Med Class: B2"
    This annotation meant that they concluded she had latent TB, because the results of her medical at St Lukes was a positive TB skin test and a negative X-ray. That designation meant that she was allowed to travel into the US without treatment, but needed to be counseled by the local health department to determine if treatment was necessary.
    After entering in Guam and clearing immigration, the official gave us a package that we were to give to the customs agent in Hawaii. No mention was made of the packet or latent TB. In Hawaii, we gave the package to an official and he just said "that's all you need to do"...again no mention of what was in the package or latent TB. Come to find out, that package was for the "Med Class: B2" and ultimately arrived at my local health department.
    We were notified last week (2 months after in country) by the local health department that we needed to come in for a consultation "related to her medical screening for the visa". The result of the consultation is that my step daughter has to take the INH TB medicine as a preventative precaution, even though they cannot definitively conclude she has latent TB. In fact, the doctor noted that it's likely that she tested positive on the skin test due to the BCG shot (TB immunization) she got when she was 3 months old. The medicine is to be taken for 9 months and we are to visit the HD monthly to ensure there are no side effects.
    I'll post once we complete the program, but thought someone might find this useful. If anyone wants to contact me privately to ask further questions/info, please feel free.
