Dear Ahadu,
First of all as the forum members said, you don't need to have a new transcript, if you have the old transcript just have the school stamp and the Woreda educational office and Zone and then region finally MoFA. At least that is what I did for my "kiflehager" transcript. The other thing is if it is in Amharic/English you don't need to translate it (If your interview is in Addis). You said your school don't put stamp on your transcript, did the woreda educational office accept it and did the stap? that is strange for me. If they accepted it I think it will not be a problem.

besides @Ahadu you only need to have original transcript why you need to authenticate , I don't know why you worried too much , original transcript is sufficient for the interview.
 
dear all just now relived from my night mare medical result news
here is scary medical exprience i encountered,
early morning on monday me and my family went to IOM
we took our orentation , and went for blood sample and x-ray test
then they told us if they encountered any problem the will call us, but our physcial appointment was on wednesday ,
around 2pm tuesday i had a call from iom- pioneers office informing that to retake the x-ray again , then i shocked , i was thinking those all scar thing on our discussion , and almost 100km i got back to addis with transportation to take the x-ray exam again , then i asked them why , they told me the doc who read the first x-ray recommended to take another side of my body x-ray , and they asked me to pay 250birr, the took the x-ray from front side not as previously back side only.
Then i asked the technicial why again , he told me that if the doc suspect somehing they will recommed to retake x-ray of differnet direction, and he surprised me that almost the six person i am doing today.
Yeasterday together with my family we went for phisical exam, still suprised that my x-ray is not even attached just like my spouse result, our baby girl skin test is negative .
Even the doctor who took our physical exam requst Nurses again and agian why my x-ray was not ready, and finnaly one technican inform us as the size of the file is big he did not send the re-taken x-ray through mail to the panel physican, i was worried.....but we finished our medical exam yeasterday before 11:00am
Then the doctor told our family that all physical exam is noraml but he told me he has to waite my x-ray to compile and send the result.
yeasterday afternoon i called IOM they even told me that the result is not yet ready as three doctors will read my x-ray ,
then this morning i called around 11:30am they told me that i am clean all three doctors confirm that i am clean , it was so stressful , i was thinking what if i am order to take culture test , the result might be known in 6 to 8 weeks time , what if the culture resutl ...?
so scary to think about it ....
god loves me and my family.

@rolex123 I'm glad that it is finally sorted out and you are safe now. One of the points in the story I think is carelessness at the IOM. Probably they serve plenty of immigrants (non dv). For others in the forum who would like to go for medical test, don't forget that there are other options in the city.
Now relax and get prepared for your interview.
