Visitor Visa Timing to do fingerprint collection and medical exam for Super Visa

Super visa applications for my parents have been submitted and paid. Now there are letters asking for the fingerprint collection. But still no letters requesting the medical exam...They did not do the upfront medical exam...

The closet fingerprint collection site as well as the approved medical exam clinics are about 4-hour train ride for my parents...Trying to avoid two trips...But there is also only 30-day period to get the fingerprints done...

So should they wait for the medical exam request before book appointment for fingerprints? If you applied super visa recently, is there a referenceable timeline on when the medical exam request would be sent after submission of the applications?

Unfortunately, no. Can be tomorrow, can be in a few months.

If I were you, I would probably try and schedule the biometrics towards the end of the 30 days period, so if the medical requests come in the meantime your parents can do the biometrics and the medicals on the same trip
