Who among you here has scoliosis problem during your medical at st lukes doctor said ur under smear test or sputum test? Can you share your experienced?

my fiance had a domestic violation from his past marriage,, Do u think it will affect if he petition me? He is from minnesota USA

i think the consul's point asking u about ur late registered BC because u were registered 8 years ago. that would be a BIG question to them why u r registered very late. i understand that bec. before, some small towns in PI u can go to ur first grade without asking ur BC. but that was a long time ago, now u can't enroll without ur BC but, i was also wondering why u just registered last 2002?

that is why she ask ur school records for them to know f u didn't used any (or changing names) identity. they are very suspicious but that is normal. just provide the documents they asked 2 u.

goodluck!

I am late registered also, I registered myself last july 2007. Why because, I am illigitimate child of my mother..MY mother has no enough knowledge that birthcertificate is very important and she doesnt know it will affect me when i grew up. I used my father surname since birth,coz he wants me to used it.But when I was 5 years old, my parents were separated and my mom and 3 among siblings took care of me..When I was a teenager I asked my mom to register me coz its really important but my problem that time was the rules that they implemented that if the parents are not married, the child cannot use his/her father surname,,so i was crying coz for me its really disaster. Then last 2004 our president implement the rules again that we can used fathers surname if they are not married..so Last 2007 I went to Pasay Civil REgister and I registered myself,,They interviewed me and I answer them what happened in my past(you should be honest to your answer) and then I brought some documents that proof that I used my father's surname since birth...my school records that is really important..

And then they passed me,,they dont ask money for me or any fee.

About your problem..I think before you go to us interview, you should ask or research first so you know what will answer to them. If they ask you about being late registerd..Im not yet interviewed in us embassy but when it happen to me in the future..I'll make sure that I bring all my proof. So if they will ask me, I am ready and will not make any conflict...

Hi Vj's somebody asked me if genital warts could affect her medical exam and getting visa?? thanks...

I dont know if it will affect her visa but its one of the things they look for during physical exam. They check for hemorrhoids, genital warts, evidence of delivery etc etc.

Regarding your discussions about medical exam. you mention about hemorrhoids if somebody has that could it be the grounds for medical failures?thanks for future replies.

They may EXAMINE for evidence of birth, hemmorhoids, and genital warts but i don't THINK that ANY of these are grounds for visa denial. Especially birth and hemorrhoids. BUT, if you say for example you have never given birth, and they see evidence of giving birth, then that may raise some questions in their mind... see?? The big problem that causes all of the extra review and very close scrutiny of all of the applicants here in Phils is the high rate of attempted marriage and visa fraud. The Medical examiners and Consular Officers are trained and CONDITIONED to look for attempted fraud in applicants. So, what may be innocent may be INTERPRETED as attempted fraud and could cause a problem. The story of the CO who thought the VJ was trying to bribe her because the son took money from the purse and put it in the window slot is an excellent example of this. The CO ASSUMED the worst even though it was completely innocent. But, giving birth, having hemorrhoids, and having HPV are NOT reasons to deny visa in and of themselves ACCORDING TO THE RULES THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO FOLLOW. Now, the reason they EXAMINE for Hemmorrhoids and lesions in that general area of the body is that at least two of the 8 diseases show symptoms in the genital or ####### area. So, they check those areas of the body and if they see something, they have to determine is this just hemmorrhoids or a pimple or an ingrown shaved hair or a bug bite, or is it really an indication of one of the problem diseases?

The criteria that are listed by me and another in different posts in this thread are the RULES that the Consular Officers must use to determine eiligibility. I know that I always feel better about these kind of things after i review the rules and then research as much as i can using google or your favorite search engine.

Good Luck and God Bless.

thanks for the info
