Experience is mother of all information.

The applicant is from Pakistan and he cannot even submit his application without TB Screening .

Only certification from IOM is acceptable. Search for IOM Pakistan you will get their contact details.

When u will visit them u will be disappointed. All they do is just formality.
For adults they do a simple X-Ray and for children all they do is simple check up which a road side clinic will do for just Rs. 100/-

Its nothing but simply business and UKBA is happy with them. So just pay them 5000 and consider it as cost of applying for visa.

Hi,

We applied for one TB test at the time of application and the visa was granted last week. It took longer then usual and now the TB test certificate has expired as it only lasts for 6 months. Do we need to have another one done or not?

Thanks
