| Subbukwt Member Member # 7197 | Posted February 20, 2004 05:52 PM Hi Everyone: After a hectic 4 weeks, I have finally landed in London yesterday. For those who have got their EC and are about to land here...just a small tip. At the airport, they ask you if you have a recent chest x-ray. Carry one with you if you can, otherwise there could be delay of an hour or so (depending on the crowd at the time of your landing). |

| Bug-Master Member Member # 7448 | Posted February 21, 2004 10:10 AM Subbukwt , on which airport have you landed? do you think it depends on the airport or location that you come from? Thanks -------------------- To light a candle is to cast a shadow... |
| JayGee Member Member # 7446 | Posted February 23, 2004 07:58 AM Well done - happy UK'ing....also do they select you at random or is it everyone doing the X-Ray exercise? Further, do they do on-site medical testing?? |
| afzalasm Member Member # 3354 | Posted February 23, 2004 08:22 AM Well as far as I know, they do ask for medical when you are going to stay longer then a normal visitor. I have had the same when I landed on work permit in UK. So, its good to have it in hand so as to save time. Otherwise que might be longer and also you have to show your tummy as well. -------------------- Regards, |
| madankumars Member Member # 5174 | Posted February 23, 2004 01:42 PM when I landed in Heathrow I was told by the lady at the medical room..."we'll send you a letter to your home. take it to NHS and get an X-Ray done. NHS will then send it to Home Office." I believe this was because the person incharge for doing the X-Ray was not there (it was the New Year's day 1-1-04). Till today I havent received any letter. Also the lady was quite rude and was complaining that I must have already known about the Chest X-Ray and that how people like me were a burden on Tax Payers (by coming here without proper docs, and getting the X-Ray done in Britain at NHS). I shot back saying "Excuse me! I am going to pay tax too...infact I'm going to pay taxes and not receive any benefits out public funds" and stormed out// [ February 23, 2004: Message edited by: madankumars ] [ February 23, 2004: Message edited by: madankumars ] |

| Dip Member Member # 4428 | Posted February 23, 2004 04:52 PM Sorry Jay ... didnt notice your reply while posting... Actually I find him incorrigibly tenacious. On the brighter side, when he is talking we can atleast give our brains the much needed rest. Ta |
| DarikUSA Junior Member Member # 7612 | Posted February 23, 2004 05:17 PM Just my thought on madan.... I would think it would be good to keep madan on the list. I see very hopeful and optimism among people here and its good. But not everything is perfect and it would be a good idea to prepare oneself better for what pinches when we move there. |
