We were searched at the gate as we entered the compound ( make sure you have your appointment letter and passport out)

o the second entrance , a lady confirms your appointment again , you queue not for long the the last security check ( all phones off), you leave your phone here and given a tag.

finally you walk along mowed grass to the main entrance, a lady takes your ppassport and appointment letter, at this point you are give a number mine was C423 :) you are made to wait outside until your no is called. give you original documents for scrutiny make payments and wait..if you have forged documents this is the moment you should start running away..

finally i was called to window 9 am lucky coz most guyz goin to window10 were either denied or put on AP(ni mzungu ako hapo)
i was interviewed by a black lady and from the accent i realized she is Kenyan..she had a serious face but she knows her job too well..

What will happen when the principal applicant is diabetic and taking medicine ?

That is not a problem. Diabetes is not infectious. What they need for medicals is a doctors report describing the condition, the current treatment, the prognosis and the prescribed medicine. Even if one has an infectious disease, go for medicals with the doctors report on the disease and leave the rest to God.

Well answered Ash
 
Papa, that was very short and brief. You are so lucky. Did you go with your son for the inteview or you just mentioned him in your online application?
 
Got there at 6.30.
1.Step
Counseling by an IOM agent on procedures and steps,ensure you have the contacts of your host.
2. Step 2.On the first day, you'll sign a form approving test should be carried out for you and your blood sample will be taken for syphilis test. No AIDS test unless you have TB. You'll also do an X-ray same day. If you have children, the doctor will check their vaccination records (if you have any) and ask you to pay for some vaccinations for them to take some same day. You may be asked to bring them back for 2nd doses at a later date to check on TB

After the X-ray & blood sample are taken, you'll be given an appointment for a 2nd examination.At least my family had acquired all the doses b4 we went for medical so we only had X ray for adults and skin taste TB for the boys. Paid Sh 41,890. If you got chicken pox you don't need to be vaccinated.Pneumonia is for older people,above 54 years. Next report on Thursday.
Will there be more test on Thursday????????

The skin test results for the kids are read in 48 to 72 hours, i think thats why yo required back on Thursday.
 
Nickelly, there will be no more tests on thursday. You are going to pick TB results of the kids like Catchme said. They take 48 to 72 hours for them to come out.
 
Papa, that was very short and brief. You are so lucky. Did you go with your son for the inteview or you just mentioned him in your online application?
I dint mention him in my application , nor did i go with him, they just asked his name
 
I dint mention him in my application , nor did i go with him, they just asked his name

God was indeed with you coz the instructions say you should mention all children in the online application even if they are not immigrating with you. Failure to do so 'MAY' lead to disqualification. Now I see that the CO has the final word regardless of the situation. This is quite encouraging to any one who made a mistake on the application.

MaKiki ma'am, the consular was also typing a lot in my case as well. He was in so hurry, busy in asking and typing. Sometimes I would interrupt him and try to have a casual chat with him. At the end, he appreciated and praised my English language skills as well. He didn't even see my educational documents. But, sadly still he put me under AP!!!!!!!!!!

All he wrote was praises about you :D :D unfortunately with you my brothers and sisters you have to go thru a sieve it is an obvious procedure or has anyone from your country been approved on the spot am just curious. There is a country in your region that people who will be current send their documents by courier early to be scrutinised before your interview so when you go for interview its either a Yes, No or more info needed i dont which one but there is

In my country, they put everyone under AP without any exception. A friend's AP took three months to complete.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the forumites once again..on this day the lord favoured me again and granted me a visa..as short interview indeed..i will post my full experience in a while..DONT PANIC ..and RELAX that s the secret

Congratulations and welcome to the club. Success is all we want.
 
The skin test results for the kids are read in 48 to 72 hours, i think thats why yo required back on Thursday.

Let me ask are they still going to do this(Once you are back, you then proceed for the physical where a nurse checks your height, weight, vision, blood pressure and pulse. You hand in the 2nd passport photo here. You are then sent to the doctor's where he/she asks about your past medical, surgical and hospitalization history. You are then sent to strip down to your underwear. She checks your ears,teeth and asks you to breath in and out deeply as she listens to your breath and heart sounds. From here I guess its gender specific: because she will feel your breasts, both male and female, and general look and touch at the rest of your body as you lie down, straight to the toes (she doesn't look at sehemu nyeti [Smilie] , just asks if everything is OK there). Females, she will check the back of your legs for varicose veins as you face the wall, and for everyone she will check to see if your spine is straight.):(
