• PREPARING FOR THE INTERVIEW IN THE IMMIGRATION PROCESS
  • The interview call in the Green Card or visa application process is an important part of the entire journey to immigration!

    The interview is the final place of call and will happen once you clear the Immigration Medical Examination. The Immigration Medical Examination is held by USCIS-approved surgeons. The results of the immigration are handed over to you in a sealed envelope and you are required to send it to the USCIS for further processing.

    After you have been notified of the interview the following steps will have to be taken by you in advance of the interview date:

    Make a CAREFUL REVIEW of the information sent by the NVC. The letter will mention the date, time and location of your immigrant visa interview.

    1. Make a CAREFUL REVIEW of the instructions provided by the U S Embassy or Consulate where you will be appearing for the interview. The instructions are important and will have to be reviewed carefully.
    2. SCHEDULE and COMPLETE the Medical Examination: You and your family members, if any, are required to schedule a medical appointment with a USCIS-approved Civil Surgeon. The medical examination must be completed by you, along with completing the required vaccinations. This has to be done before your scheduled visa interview date.

    When your medical exam is completed, you may be given a sealed envelope that has to be carried by you to the visa interview. Some surgeons prefer to send it directly to the embassy or consulate.

    1. COLLECT all the remaining documents required: You are required to

    obtain all the original documents or certified copies and one photocopy for yourself and each family member who is applying for the visa.

    Please note that all documents that are not written in English needs to be accompanied by a translation in English. These translated manuscripts need to be certified by a competent translator.
