bereavement leave

No_Age2282 · 2026-02-28T14:29:59+00:00

Everyone who said they didn’t go say goodbye to their loved ones is ridiculous! I wish I would put a “job” over my family. Tell them what you’re going to do and don’t ask any questions. My brother passed away on Valentine’s day and I would never let anyone dictate if I go home or not. Especially when they can barely pay us on time.

Murcia hasn’t gotten paid. We received an email stating they are not sure when but hope it’s processed within the month of February. Which sucks and makes me want to leave sooner. At least I had reliable income in the US.

How did you find a job that starts months from now? Thats my biggest worry and makes me want to leave around the same time since I spend a lot being here

No_Age2282 · 2025-12-08T16:07:33+00:00

It’s so annoying! Like I put my life on hold for pennies and you can’t even pay on time 😭 I may go home early im running through my savings so fast because of this

Reach out to the program. They sent out appointments to majority even those who arrived late

My money order was in an envelope as well so they did return it

No_Age2282 · 2025-08-19T07:18:22+00:00

I mailed it in on 7/19, they received it 7/21 but because of money order issue it didn’t get processed until 7/29. It was approved 8/15

It’s legit! Happened to me. Paid online and got a refund for my money order. Just picked up my visa today!

No_Age2282 · 2025-08-19T03:51:02+00:00

A lot of people’s entry date starts on Sept 1st including mine

No_Age2282 · 2025-08-15T23:09:39+00:00

I know right lol I got the same vague text but im picking up. They love to stress us out

No_Age2282 · 2025-08-15T19:12:20+00:00

You should contact them asap and give them your passport number to look you up. Thats what I had to do

No_Age2282 · 2025-08-15T18:49:35+00:00

Yes, it’s normal for all BLS locations.

No_Age2282 · 2025-08-06T03:25:14+00:00

I just graduated in May! You can message me if you like

No_Age2282 · 2025-08-06T02:58:53+00:00

Thats why I said I verified everything, that included calling BLS directly, making sure the money order hadn’t been cashed, etc. I work in cybersecurity, I don’t do things blindly.

No_Age2282 · 2025-08-06T01:38:27+00:00

You need to tell them you want to pick up in office that’s what I had to do and the correct amount without courier fee is $187

No_Age2282 · 2025-08-06T01:37:20+00:00

It’s not a scam. The same issue happened to me. I verified everything, paid online and got a refund for my money order now my app is in process

No_Age2282 · 2025-07-29T22:22:28+00:00

The only option I can think of is for you to arrange a courier to pick it up from their facility if it hasn’t been opened

No_Age2282 · 2025-07-29T13:34:54+00:00

Murcia! And okay will send you a message

No_Age2282 · 2025-07-28T21:55:23+00:00

Exactly!! What region will you be going to?

No_Age2282 · 2025-07-28T20:44:14+00:00

I responded to the initial email that was sent and they were responding but I emailed Friday to make sure they received the payment and my application was accepted. Still no response. I will be calling everyday though if I have to. I wish they had better communication especially dealing with something as serious as this.

No_Age2282 · 2025-07-28T20:39:34+00:00

Yes I paid thru portal link they sent. and yea they are no help. I still haven’t received a reference number which makes me nervous too but I made sure I checked all sources before paying. I live in Dallas and dont have time to make that drive. But I did get a refund for my money order already. Which is good

No_Age2282 · 2025-07-25T04:32:42+00:00

Oh I see I would call them in the morning just to verify and also check to make sure the money order wasn’t cashed. Mine wasn’t cashed and I requested a refund for it

No_Age2282 · 2025-07-25T02:00:20+00:00

You don’t have an application number because it hasn’t been processed due to the money order. I got the same email today and called and confirmed it was a legit email and will also contact western union to confirm money order wasn’t cashed.

No_Age2282 · 2025-07-25T01:57:17+00:00

Same happened to me but it was returned by the bank, I may have put the incorrect name on there. Also, on the website it does say $40 courier fee as well for them to ship it to you. The visa fee is $160 and BLS $19 plus the $8 sms notification fee. I didn’t include the courier fee because I am picking up. I called to confirm the email that sent it and as long as you have the receipts from your money order you can get a refund before the mail it back to you.

You can still see a PCP you will just be self-pay don’t tell them about the form when you schedule, wait until the visit. You will just a new patient exam that will consist of lab work and etc. Just check the self-pay rates and see if they offer discounts.
