    TB Dots

    in Philippines

    Because the K2 child did not complete immunizations at SLEC, he will be required to get vaccinated and possibly undergo another medical by a civil surgeon in the US, to apply for a green card.  At the US medical, he will have to repeat the IGRA test, which will likely show TB exposure.  I have no idea what the civil surgeon will recommend for a child with TB exposure.  It's possible that the civil surgeon will not sign an I-693 form for the child until he completes a 12-week preventive treatment for TB infection.

     

    You may be able to avoid another full medical in the US for the child by searching for a civil surgeon who will agree to do only the immunizations part of the I-693.  Finding a civil surgeon willing to do that could be a challenge.

     

    Can the K2 get the vaccines in the Philippines before they come to the USA?

     

    As stated above the K2 wasn’t able to receive the vaccines at the medical because he was sick.

     

    If so, how would this work?

    The SLEC staff would have given your fiancee and her son specific instructions about further TB testing if any was required for the K2 child.  If no such instructions were given and the K2 child was allowed to proceed with immunization, then it looks like the K2 child cleared the medical.

     

    They wouldn’t give him immunization bc he has a bad cold but said we can get them when he arrives in the USA

    My fiancé and her son finished their medical exam yesterday.

     

    My fiancé was given her envelope and CD and does not have TB.

     

    However, her son was shown to have TB dots from his blood test but the X-ray showed no signs of TB and he does not need medication. The doctor said he was only exposed to TB.

     

    The Doctor submitted the K2’s medical information electronically to the embassy.

     

    Will the embassy require further testing of the K2? Will this cause further delays?

     

    Please advise.

    Nothing yet. Just rumors. Don’t change your medical or interview, continue as scheduled. If they don’t have tests available yet, they will place you on a call list when they are ready.

     

    Our k2 was also allowed into the interview without complete medical packet, but his visa will not be issued until the 221g request for IGRA test is complete.

    Thank you very much, this helps us a lot.

     

    We are not going to cancel the medical or interview and her son will go with her as well.

     

    We were hoping to be together by January but that’s looking less likely now 😫

    Hey, all! You will soon be inquiring about your case to NVC.
    Can you let me know if NVCResearch is still working to get the received? Seems now they refer to the public inquiry only or never even reply.
    Thank you!

    I sent an email to NVC research earlier this week to try to change my address and they responded to me that they haven’t received our case yet. We got our NOA2 on August 10….
