Hi mjsantos, I see that you posted this back in March. I'm just wondering... how long did it take in the end for Sao Paulo to receive your medical results? Hope you don't mind me asking - my husband was just approved but needs to re-do his medical exam, and I'm trying to gauge the wait-time...

Hi Everyone, My Husband was asked to re-do his medical exam following his interview in Brazil a few weeks ago. He went this past Friday to another city that has a DMP, but there was not enough time to complete the examination (i.e. x-rays and blood tests) - apparently he has to go to a...
