blimy is it the same price for kids as adults?

Well they say a trip into London can be an expensive day out:twocents: , I gess yours will be & your not even going to get an icecream out of it :lol_hitti

Hope you have a fun day anyway. Good luck

I think it is a little bit cheaper for kids cant remember off the top of my head how much. more than £100 I think. They are classed as adults I think at 15. Hope we get in for our before Dec.

Kids do not have to have CXR or blood taken.

Someone tell me if I am wrong its only what I've picked up on the way.

Hi ukrn2ca

Had medicals yesterday. All went really well, the staff were very nice. Took bloods for HIV/Syphillis (don't know results yet). Weight, height, examined ears, throat, chest, abdo, breasts, reflexes, eyes and did a chest x-ray. All went very smoothly, didn't need extra vaccinations. Had made sure we were all up to date beforehand, didn't want any added expense! Followed the chart on the website (US embassy in London) and hoped for the best. It was easy to find and in there about 2 hours max (4 of us). Worst part was paying for it (£640)!

Hi english nurse

If you use that link on the website click on vaccination requirements on the right hand side (highlighted in blue) , that will give you an up to date chart to follow. I used that and we didn't need any vaccinations at our medicals:chuckle

Glad it all went well. Hope your not expecting any positive results :uhoh3: . Not long now are you counting down?

Thanks for the insite to the medical. Wonder why they gave my mate an internal? you didn't say you had one! I wonder if it was a different DR! she has no reason to need one no history of anything ** I will be releived not to have one so will my daughter.

When's your interview, is it next week?

When do you plan on leaving?

Sorry so many questions, OH I'm so excited for you:balloons: :smiley_aa

I have never heard of anybody having an internal, that doesnt sound right

:) Hi ukrn2ca

They do look at 'external genitalia', have to say I was a bit worried about that myself, and my daughter (20) definately wasn't amused, but it was a very discreet and quick look for us women (had a woman DR as well). My hubby & son (17) had a male DR who they said was OK and he looked them over asked them to 'cough' etc. but they were ok about it. Philip (son) thought it was highly amusing!!:chuckle

Interviews on 17th, and we plan to go if all goes well towards the end of sept. Could go earlier but have some commitments before then, and hoping to be near to selling the house also by then!
