Does anyone know how long does it take for IOM to respond to the email for booking a TB test? I emailed them on Thursday 29th April and tried calling them numerous times, but no luck.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

How long until you received a reply nabeel? Thanksnabeel.chohan wrote: ↑Thu May 20, 2021 11:23 amAll-
Please email them again. All emails sent during last 3-4 weeks were affected due to the reduced workforce during lockdown.
Thanks

I am in the same position as you. Emailed on 17/05 and visited the centre today 21/05/. They said to just keep sending them an email every 2 days until you get a reply... such a TERRIBLE system. This the last document required for my wife visa and its so frustrating that we don't even have more than one option to get the test done!
Please let me know if they reply to you and when they book your date for the TB test

My wife went to lahore. They said only available through email :/
Hi
I have done everything as stated on their website :/ Even tried their 'mymedical' online portal but there is not a single appointment available all the next year at any of the IOM sites in Pakistan... So clearly that system is broken as well! I just don't understand how this is meant to be an internationally recognised health centre.VeryNiceName wrote: ↑Sat May 22, 2021 5:34 amMake sure that when you're emailing them, you are including the format required which gives them all of the information that they require for the applicant. You can find the format on their website.
TB wasn't required at the date of the application since you have applied from a country which the TB wasn't required? Has your solicitor contacted the decision making centre with regards to you being in Pakistan? since your application will be linked Qatar?Muhammad jabbar 1993 wrote: ↑Fri May 21, 2021 10:42 pmHi
TODMATT thank you for your response.
Actually I submitted application from Qatar and tb test was not required from that country. Currently I'm in Pakistan as my mom passed away so I came back home. My lawyer told me as I'm In Pakistan now so me should get tb test also to submit passport. That's why I'm just stuck and waiting for appointment.
We had appeal that we won and now they said to submit passport but idk if I can submit without tb test?
Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thank you

I do not believe you need one and also if you arrived in the UK. You are highly unlikely going to be ask and if it is required then there's a X ray machine at the airport but those people who came from abroad was never asked about it and this include my wife whose TB test was expired 12 months later.Muhammad jabbar 1993 wrote: ↑Sat May 22, 2021 10:36 amHiTODMATT wrote: ↑Sat May 22, 2021 8:52 amTB wasn't required at the date of the application since you have applied from a country which the TB wasn't required?

You are NOT required to submit a TB test at the centre. Once an appeal has been allowed and you have been emailed to pay for IHS, the email usually contains information relating to submitting your passport only with the receipt of the IHS fee paid. Have you received the topup email?Muhammad jabbar 1993 wrote: ↑Sat May 22, 2021 4:40 pmHiTODMATT wrote: ↑Sat May 22, 2021 10:47 amI do not believe you need one and also if you arrived in the UK.

Thank you so much for your information.
As I need to submit passport and get stamp on it, iwas thinking maybe they will ask for tb test as I will submit passport here now in Pakistan.
Can I go visa application centre to ask them?
Or where I can email to confirm?
If anyone can give any information will be appreciated. It's been over a year struggling with this visa. It never ends

Yeah we received email from home office to submit passport.
Tb test was not mentioned in that email only was IHS fee that we already submitted on the time of application and they didn't made any refund as we lodged appeal.
The issue is in the whole appeal process time my resident address was Qatar then suddenly my mom died and I came Pakistan, mean time our decision was overturned.
When we received email to submit passport our lawyer wrote them my address to update and advised me to sort tb test then submit passport. But home office it was not written in email. It's just because I'm going to submit my passport in Pakistan that's why he said should submit tb test also so they stamp on my passport.
But this tb test appointment is taking forever.
How often have you been emailing them? Hope they come through with a reply soon for you manNaeemAbbas wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 12:16 amYes I am also waiting response from tb test center. They are not responding at all. i sent them email on 13th may.
