You will be fine. Try to get as clear of a urine sample as possible. You can let them know but I don't think it's going to impact the urine test. If it would, they would get back to you. And it certainly won't be a problem for any other part of the medical.
Should I tell them that i have my period? How about the physical exam where I need to be in underwears?

I just had my period today (saturday, march 9).. I'm going to have my medical exam on tuesday(march 12). I can't back out now because I already booked my hotel.. and my interview schedule is on march 22..
I just want to know if they will allow me to do the urinalysis test and physical exam?.. or Would they allow me to proceed the medical exam even if I have menstruation and then just tell me to come back after my mestruation to do it but I can have the other tests like xray, blood test,..etc?

Those post were from 2010. I believe now it doesnt matter if you have your period. That's what we were told anyways. Jean has her medical on Monday and she just started hers so we will know for sure then.
Did her menstruation started before she go to slec or after her tests? I hope so that they will not tell me to go back after my period and just proceed to the exam..I can't find recent forum discussing about this topic..

i have the unfortunate experience of having my menstruation start on the day of my medical exam because i am irregular too. but they let me proceed to do the othe steps like blood tests, x-ray, vaccine screening and other stuff. the only thing they didn't make me do was the physical exam where you have to disrobe for the doctor. they told me to go back for it after my period is done. so she can go for the medical exam and she would just have to tell them at a certain step that she has her period and they would tell her where to go next and they would just put a remark on her paper that the only step she hasn't went through is the physical exam.
how long does it take to get the results after you had the physical exam? and did you bring other documents on your second visit?

If you see other days available then YES you can schedule your interview for that day.
We have seen the embassy offering others days (again) started about a week ago.
Thanks! Coz some said when they schedule their interview the only date showed is all thursdays for k1 visa applicants.. but since it's okay to pick any day or date available I will pick Friday march 22..
Btw.. nearest interview date schedule is March 13, 14, 22, 27 and 28

You don't have to wait until your period come. I say this because of our experience. My fiancé was expecting her period a week before she was going to do her medical. It didn't come. She still went to do her medical and completed her Day 1. On the morning of Day 2 that's when her period came. We were very, very lucky. If you live close to Manila go there on Tuesday. I say that because I've read on numerous occasions how Mondays are like a madhouse there at SLEC.
Thanks! Maybe a Wednesday would be good

Oh I forgot to mention ... MOST never receive the eligibility letter.
It has been 7 years and my wife is still waiting for it.

Are you referring to the letter from the NVC which has the MNL number? If so, you can use the email the NVC sent you. That email should have the MNL number, petitioner name, beneficiary name, etc. St. Lukes WILL accept that email.
No, I was referring to eligibility letters.. she said that she gave "1 copy of NVC and eligibility letters" does she mean the eligibility letter sent in mail and physical mail? Coz I do not have mine yet..

This website has been so beneficial for me since we're doing our application on our own. And I guess, it's time to give back. 😊
-------
I rented a "room" at Pacific Place Apartelle Suites at 539 Arquiza St. for 3D2N for 2000/night. (02)5212279 call here for reservations. 😊 I'm not an endorser. I just appreciate their place so much. 😄
I would highly recommend this as this was 100m away to SLEC. You can literally get there in less than 2 minutes walking. This "room" I rented is actually an apartment with living, dining, kitchen, 2-door refrigerator, 2TVs, 2ACs, and 1BR with 1T&B with well functioning hot shower. What amused me most is that they have free use of stove and kitchen equipment (casserole, pan, plates, bowls, utensils, etc). So mom just cooked food to save money. And staffs are friendly and accommodating too. KUDOS! 😀👏
So here it goes...
DAY 1
2:30AM -I went to SLEC hoping to get #1 but despite being early, I still got Lucky number 8. The early birds were there since 1:30AM.
4:00AM -
The guard allowed us to enter the building, checked our requirements and gave us our numbers. I got #8.
Requirements I submitted :
-1 copy of nvc and eligibility letters
-1 copy of interview appointment
-1 copy of online registration to SLEC
-1 photocopy of passport
-4pcs 2x2 pictures with Printed names at the back
-Passport
5:30AM - Counters are already open. It was a surprised since the guard told us that it will open at 6:00. Anyway, I was #8 but since the early birds are two families (family will be entertained in just 1 counter) and a solo, I've been 4th.
5:45AM -
I was called and submitted my requirements. Got asked a few questions like name, birthday, interview date, etc. Just the basics that you can easily answer. Then after, I was asked for my 4 index finger prints. Once done, I was instructed to go to the 5th floor for payment to the Cashier.
6:10AM -
Done paying. I was instructed to go to 4th floor for blood extraction and urine. This made me curious since the people before me were instructed to 3rd floor for XRAY. I guess it was done so it won't clog for each floor.
This was actually a good thing since I'm the first applicant at the 4th floor so I didn't wait. I was done with my blood extraction at 6:15AM but was asked to go back at 6:22AM for urine. I made a mistake peeing at 5:22.
At this part, your number has no bearing anymore. It's a matter of strategy how you'll finish your exams. Whether you'll run, write fast, use the stairs or wait for the elevator. I did use the stairs most of the times.
TIP: If you can hold in your pee before this part, hold it in. Your urine must be within your bladder for at least an hour.
6:26AM -
I am done with XRAY since there were still a few people so I got accommodated immediately. This wasn't a good experience for me though I finished it so fast. The nurse assigned did my xray 4 times. According to her, I needed to breathe very deep. So I did it 4 times.
It was actually okay not until I heard her reaction. She said "ehemm" in a very sarcastic tone that I got afraid that she might saw something wrong on my lungs. It made me nervous until the morning of my Day 2. In my opinion, she shouldn't be giving unnecessary reactions because the people in that clinic are stressed and pressured.
Giving her the benefit, she may not be aware that her unnecessary reactions have psychological effect to the person hearing her words. I convinced myself that she made it unintentionally but I also met an applicant later who got worried because of the same thing. It's very unprofessional. 😑
6:30AM -
I went back to 4th floor for urinalysis. I'm able to pee by that time. So I'm confident I'll meet the line in the small container.
6:35AM -
I submitted my paper for immunization interview. This was forever. I got stranded here for almost 1 1/2hrs. There's only a few doctors and some papers with colored tag will be prioritized first. Colored tags are for families with pedia, seniors, and pregnant.
When it's my turn, I was asked with series of questions like first and last day of period, if I got hospitalized, got any baby book vaccine records, etc. I was asked too if I had chickenpox before, and it's yes. However, i wasn't able to show any scar so I still need Varicella. I was told to have 3 shots. MMR, TDAP, and Varicella.
8:10AM -
I got to 5th floor, submitted my paper (btw, make sure that your receipt and passport are always with you before leaving floors/counters) for vital signs (height and weight).
Then was aked to wait to be called again. I waited for about 10mins and was called for BP and eye check. Then was asked to wait for my name to be called at the US counter. After 5mins, my name was called and was instructed to go to Room 8. And I'm the doctor's 7th patient.
Waiting is the game. There were 3 people before me. Some are done for 10mins, others are 15mins, some are lesser or more.
9:20AM -
I'm in. Was fired series of questions again, mostly medical history. And I tried depending myself by telling the doctor that I had early signs of pneumonia just almost a month ago and was treated for 1 week. I did that out of desperation because I'm still bothered with the reaction of the nurse at the XRAY room. She just typed everything in her computer. Once done, she told me to undress leaving the undergarments on and wear the gown.
My back and neck were checked first before lying down. While lying down, I was instructed to extend my arms showing her the front and back of my hands. Stomach was checked. Then made pinches on my lower abdomen and I'm done.
9:30AM -
I submitted my receipt to the US Counter and they told me to wait again.
9:35AM -
My name was called and the staff told me to go back tomorrow at 9AM for immunization.
I'm not sure with what to think with her words. I'm after with the stamp of the guard the next morning. I'm just thankful I'm done a bit early despite the huge number of applicants that day.
DAY 2
My schedule was 9am but I went there at 6:51AM since I'm just staying nearby and I learned that I can go earlier than my original time.
(The guard has 4 stamps, Immunization means you passed, Counter A for psychiatric exam, laboratory for sputum test, and radiology for repeat XRAY. I just read this from a blog before. I'm not sure if these are accurate. Credits to the owner.)
I got IMMUNIZATION AREA at 2nd floor after scanning my index finger. So the guard stamped Immunization. I praised the Lord for HIS mercy. All Glory to HIM.
Getting there early was a good choice. I'm the first applicant that was called at the immunization room. I waited for about 30mins here before I was called.
7:30AM -
I'm done with my 3 vaccines and was instructed to go down at ground floor and wait for my name to be called. Btw, there's short interview here such as name of my Fiancé, his birthday, first and last day of period, etc.
7:50AM -
My name was called at counter A only to ask for my passport and instructed to wait again.
8:00AM -
I was called at Counter H. The staff asked for my interview date, asked to check the spelling of my name on the papers, my passport number, address, etc.
8:10AM -
I'm done. Finally. I was given with a CD, vaccine records, and the sealed brown envelope that has DO NOT OPEN. These will be brought to the day of interview.

Sharing is caring. I'm not sure if this will be effective to everyone but for me, I had a good feeling after suffering from the early signs of pneumonia. It helps to clean your lungs and remove all the mucus you have according to the video I've watched.I tried homemade carrots syrup for two weeks before going to SLEC. Took it in the morning with an empty stomach and before bedtime. It's boiled carrots mixed with pure honey and lemon juice.
Again, I didn't say that this was the reason I got "fine" with my XRAY, but upon trying it, I'm breathing normally than usual. It may worked on me but I'm not sure if it will work on you too. I'm not the right/best person to recommend what is best for you. I just shared my thoughts. 😊
For those who'll have their medical soon, God bless you. I pray for your success too.
PS. A day after a holiday is packed of people. February 25 is Edsa day. You may wish to do your medical on a different day. They say, it's usually Thursday that has fewer applicants.
Thanks for sharing! When did you get your eligibility letter? Did you get a physical mail? My fiance already received an Eligibility letter via email but I'm have not yet received the physical mail..I am worried if it is really needed on medical exam.. and also the interview schedule? HELP!

Hi all!
Heres a quick summary of my timeline
1/7/2019 NOA 2 approved, Aug 9 2018 ( USCIS RCVD)
1/29/2019 emailed NVC and inquired about my case status (on their actual website)
1/30/2019 I called, recieved my case# but was advise that my case was returned they couldn’t tell me why
1/31/2019 I called and was advised that it was due to an incorrect stamp
..was planning to wait for two weeks..
2/11 received an email on my inquiry From 1/29 it states my case number and USEM info
(I was still worried, but since I did get an email I got some light from Hank that they should be sending it out to USEM. CEAC website still shows “at NVC” today
just crossing my fingers it did leave today
any who
my cousin leaves for the Philippines 2/28 instead of overnighting it via FedEx she will just bring it back there with her (she’s not even a block away from my fiancé’s place)
i just want to get my checklist done so done so I don’t miss anything from my end. I can only come up with the photo album and the affidavit of support
✅ photo album
⭕️ AOS
- 2018 Tax doc - OK
- 2018 w2 - OK
- should I also add 2017/2016?
- do I need a letter from my current workplace with the letter head stating Full time employee and currently yearly salary?
anything else I should include for him to have at the time of his interview? Or anything that I need to provide from my end?
I watched Inday Lorelei on YouTube she showed what she brought on her interview. Her files are very organized because she provide a table of contents. I listed it down so I will not forget what to bring. While waiting for your case to be ready.. Did you have your medical exam? Or you are waiting for your case to be ready then you can schedule your medical and interview? I want to know if it's best to have medical exam while waiting or not... Also, how long did you wait for the documents from your fiance to arrived in the Philippines?
