Hello! I was wondering if there are any Alternates who were able to submit their Health Certification and Criminal Record on a later date than indicated because of unforeseen circumstances. If so, did you still proceed in sending the forms? I am asking because I have lived in another country for the past 5 years and left. I waited for a very long time for their response about my online inquiry on my criminal record. I am deeply disheartened that this happened and I’m already thinking that I blew my chance to be upgraded. 🙁

You need to contact your consulate.
They have worked with people who let them know in advance. In the COVID era, they understand that delays can happen.
However, you need to let them know sooner than later. If you contact them the night before the deadline, they won’t be as sympathetic.
Can’t hurt to contact them.
