Previously denied, now approved ????????

We had our interview nov 10, 2020. Case was approved 2 days after. Thanks be to God. We had applied before in the past but was denied for a ton of insignificant stuff. This time we went all out and did our research and gathered every single piece of documents we could. This last interview was like a casual talk with someone you’d meet on a trip. We laughed and cracked jokes, talked about the pandemic etc

Did you redo your medical ? I️ recently got scheduled and I’m trying to decide if I should redo the medical since sent that in a long time ago.

What were some of the things you got denied for the first time? Maybe it will help some people prepare before hand.

Would you mind sharing details about the denial? It'd be nice to know so I don't make the same mistakes haha!

Hoping that your interview went well. Yes I had to redo my medical but some of the shots I didn’t need a second time but man it still cost me almost $500
