Americans in Kuwait!! Help me out!!

medical exam requires you to have a chest x-ray and blood tests for serious infectious diseases, such as HIV(AIDS), TB, hepatitis B&C, typhoid and malaria. Also on my form i received, i need to have the doctor take a pregnancy test as well.

hope this helps

This is the list that I received from the service provided by my employer when I came last year.  The last one is uncommon, some type of tropical parasite.

1.       Chest X-ray (for TB)
2.       HIV
3.       Hepa
4.       Syphilis
5.       Malaria
6.       Filiarasis

So you guys got forms from your employers?

Not forms, just detailed list of instructions.  My employer uses a service in the states in the D.C. area that handles all the paperwork and deals with the paperwork with the embassies.

Okay, I gotcha! Thanks everyone.

Thanks to lme, I finally found the list of tests on the embassy website. I just didn't bother to click on "visa" when I looked around there a couple days ago! Problem solved! Thanks again!

And another thing...this authentication of academic records is a pain in the...

tell me about it; stamped by this place, get a seal there, notary there. its murder.

Got that to look forward to when i go back to Scotland in the summer then . So i just need a lawyer to say that my degrees are real?!

i believe in Scotland they will be referred to as solicitors

:p

Here in the States, I have to have my diploma and transcripts notarized by someone at the universities. Then they are to be certified by the county of the university, then certified by the state of the university. After all that, I have to send them to US Dept of State to be authenticated. At least that is my understanding. I'm starting to hear conflicting stories!

its stupid because in the UK our degrees all have the university stamp and a hologram to show that it is genuine!!! Still have to get it done.

lol.. h r u ?
