Hi i am processing my wife's permanent residence from Philippines. she has already done the medical examination and found there was a spot in her lungs (tuberculosis) and was requested for additional examination, Sputum test specifically, which takes 3 months to culture and get the results. after 3 months we got the result and it came out negative which means she doesn't have TB. the weird thing is she was still asked by ST. Luke's medical to undergo medications for 6 months. And i am so confused why take the 3 months if at the end SHE IS STILL REQUIRED TO TAKE MEDICATION EVEN IF IT IS NEGATIVE.
so my real question is if we ask ST. Lukes to submit the results still, where the embassy doctor would check it, would that matter? like if the embassy doctor rejects it, would we need to re-process again from the very start, or would we just get a request to take medications for 6 months.
I want to take a risk and see if the embassy thinks that it is acceptable, cause if it is, then we proceed with the application, while she still takes medication just to be safe. but if the embassy rejects it, i'm afraid that we might have to start a new application again.
i dont know if this makes sense but yeah im hoping for an answer ASAP. thank you guys!!
