vaccination for K1 and doctors

[David-J 0]

HI everyone.

I'm about to file for my AOS, EAD and AP. I had my physical exam for the K1 around 3 months ago. I didn't get the vaccines then because they told me I didn't need them to get in the US and get married. We are married now and I am on her medical insurance. My question would be.

Do I have to go to the USCIS affiliated doctors for the vaccines? or can I go to my insurance doctor for the vaccines? How does the vaccine thing work? Also, I only have the vaccine page from my medical exam and it's empty because I didn't get any vaccines. Do the doctors fill that out or they give me a new one?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

you can goto any doctor to get the vaccine, BUT you will need to find a civil surgeon that is on the USCIS website to fill out the form I-693.

not correct.

Any doctor can give the vaccine, even the one that is on the insurance. he just needs to find a civil surgeon on the USCIS list to help him fill the form I-693 to transfer his vaccination records over.

INCORRECT. You can get your vaccines anywhere (and the cheapest way to do it would be most likely at your City/County Health Department. Then they have to be transcribed into the vaccination form by civil surgeon listed with USCIS.

COMPLETELY WRONG!!!!

You only have to go to a USCIS-approved doctor once your vaccines are completed and you are ready for them to fill out the I-693 form that you must include with your AOS paperwork.

Of course, you CAN go to a USCIS doctor for the vaccines, but they will charge you more for them.

You can use insurance to get the vaccines. Just don't say it's for immigration. Many doctors hear the word "immigration" and it's closely followed "cha ching" $$$$$. They will claim that insurance doesn't cover vaccinations for immigration. How would the insurance company know that the vaccines were for immigration???? CROOKED LYING DOCTORS... are there any other kinds?

Thanks for all the replies. I'll look into my insurance if they cover the vaccines, if not I will go to a health clinic. Then I'll look for a designated civil surgeon to fill out the form.

Anyone knows of a clinic where I can get the vaccines in San Jose, CA or near here?
