Medical Report

Hello all,
Just wanted to let you know that it will take one week to get the medical report in Taiwan.

Turbo and Mlin144
You both are I-140 and in CSC.
Maybe you two can help each other more

Mlin144
To my knowledge, it may take 5-6 months since your returned
package 3 to the interview.
St. Louis to NVC 3-4 weeks
NVC review case 2-3 weeks
NVC to AIT 10-15 days
If AIT recieve a case before 20 of per month, the interview will be in next 2 month, otherwise, in next 3 month.

Hope that's help

I am kind of being confused by the whole CP. My friend told me I can forward my package 3 to AIT directly without sending back to NVC as long as you have the case number from NVC. According to NVC, I have to send the P3 back and they will transfer it to AIT.
Does NVC change the procedure?
NVC told me they forward my case to AIT on 10/1/02 and it takes about 10 business days for AIT to receive the documents. I just received a return e-mail from AIT and they did receive any application base on my name or case number. Is that normal?

Thanks for help :(

After April 2002, the whole CP process change rule. Package 3 need to go through National Visa Center for background check and review. You maybe interview on December.
 
Great to find this forum.


To Turbo:

I just got my LC approved too. Trying so hard to decide the next step, concurrent file or CP.

My lawyer told me that most of her cases go for concurrent in CA, she has only two for CP, and these two have been in waiting mode for 6~7 month, still pending ...

Since my case will be processed by TSC with estimate process time for 140 -> 6 months. I485-> two years. And even my lawyer can't compare the time frame for concurrently file in since it is such a new law ...

Consider the horrible 485 processing time, I decided to go for CP.

Have anyone here has any thought of concurrently file in v.s. CP?

I am not aware of TSC processing time because I am at CSC center. Well i just gave paperwork to my lawyer for i140 today. hopefully they will sent out this week.

I did hear the CP process is getting tedious now...more steps. And you are right, the concurrent processing is really new..don't have any statistic ...and if the process slow down you just have to wait in the pipeline. At least for CP there is a more definite time frame. The only thing is you have to be pretty sure of your job security. so I am gambling on that. good luck to us all and will keep all posted.
 
medical exam fee

I got my medical exam report yesterday.

You have to bring passpost, within one year photo (2inch by 2 inch) x 6pcs and the medical form.

In "Hoon An" hospital, it was charged NT$5925 (included register fee NT$225) for regular checking, blood testing and x-ray.
Plus in another "Center Clinic" it was charged NT$312 for MMR shot and register fee NT$225 again.

all the best

Medical Exam

My flight arrived at Taipei 5:30 am on Nov 4, I went to Adventist hospital "Tai-an" around 7:30am. The medical exam start 8:30, I left hospital around 9:15. They charge NT4680 for general check. I need to have 2 shots, one is MMR, another is TD. This two shots charge NT 647. They accept paid by credit card. .....will wait for 3 days to call back check for pick up time. The regular process time around 5 business days.

The Adventist Hospital charge less than Country Hospital, compare to Oct7's exam fee.

The Adventist Hospital not charge for registed fee, NT 4680 is for whole package general check. the Vaccination medical fee is not including, but price is reasonable.
