Somebody please answer.
I have 95/94 scores for Step 1 and Step 2 and wanna go for surgery with H1B.
I\'m taking CSA in the mid-October. So I won\'t be able to take Step 3 sooner than December (need ECFMG
certification for it).
Is it a big problem that I won\'t have Step 3 at the time of interviews (if there\'s gonna be some)?
Will I still be able to get prematch with H1B, at least technically before Step 3?
Are there any other paperwork that I need to do about H1B prior to interviews?
Thank you for your time. I appreciate it very much.

re:step3 & H1B

same here! i\'m facing the same problem,i scored 99&92, & have taken the CSA last month,& expecting my result by mid oct.(latest)then,2-4 wks of FSMB processing the step3 application,so at best i might just be able to Get my result 1st wk of dec.orat best last wk of nov. most program directors i have spoken to in programs that sponsor for H1B said that i must have my scores reported by dec.1st to be considered for H1B,b\'cos of thre paper work involved.

but with the premium processing of 2 wks by INS i think, it shouldnt take too long to process if the program is willing & committed.
so i believe if one could get everything done by end of dec. there shouldnt be much problem.

input from others with better experience than mine will be highly appreciated.

yaudara.

I have a score of 86 step 1 and 90 step2. I am doing CSA mid october. Do i need to do step 3 before i get into a residency?
I thought i could have done step three after my residency.
So will they take u without step 3.
The residencies start in July so u are saying the deadline for everything is December.
Also what country r u from?
I am from Ghana

Thanks
