TB Test: Pakistan

Post by omarinbox » Sun Sep 21, 2014 1:33 pm

My wife has been trying to phone Gerry's to get the number for the TB Test centre in Lahore. It has been nigh on impossible as she works a teaching job on weekdays so she also has deferred fixing the appointment to my father in law.

He is phoning Gerry's, she has been phoning Gerry's they get put on hold and then cut off after an hour. The IOM number listed on the Home Office site in Pakistan is dead.

I've tried googling foor the IOM TB test centre in Lahore but can't find it.

I did find this link from this board dated 2011:

http://www.immigrationboards.com/genera ... 75888.html

Does this email method still work? We are giving it a shot but I woould like to know if its a dead end or not. Has anyone used this email method recently?

Also if anyone has the number for the IOM TB Test Centre in Lahore please share.

Thanks!

Thanks a lot netwrokers.

My wife sent off a quite detailed email to them on Saturday so hopefully she gets a response soon.

The fact its worked for you gives me a bit of confidence. Its that time of the process where things are beginning to come together.

You're welcome brother, they'll probably reply you within 48 hours so hopefully you'll get a response by Tuesday afternoon. If you already have provided them with all the required information they should be able to give you a appointment else they'll ask you to fill in a template they have and send it back to them.

Good luck with your application process.

Wife told me today she was advised its best to phone the office after 3pm.

So the number does work but its busy as hell except at that time.
