AOS and Vaccinations

[JLP9576 0]

Hi,

My husband came on a K-1 visa and we got married 3 weeks ago today. We're working on filing the paper work for AOS. Everything is self explanatory but I'm totally confused about the vaccinations. I usually read guides and forums and get the information I need but I just can't understand this. My husband received a DS-3025 at his medical which we have. It has that when he went for his medial he received the Td and Heptatitis B. He hasn't received the 3rd dose of heptatis B which is due in December. Do we have to wait until he receives that dose before filing the AOS documents?

We have a receipt that he received the MMR vaccine but it is not on the DS-3025 sheet. Should we submit the receipt showing this? Would this be suffice?

Other listed vaccines have check marks for "not age appropiate" or 'not routinely availabe". The only other vaccine it looks like he needs is the varicella. Does he need others?

After he gets the other required vaccines, he needs to see a civil surgeon to have all vaccines recorded on the I693 form?

Also, part 2 of the DS-3025 form it has checked that "vaccine history incomplete" and "applicant may be eligible for blanket waiver becaue vaccination not medically appropriate". Just FYI.

I would appreciate any help or clarifications on this matter to help me understand better. Thank you very much!

What we did is we went to a civil surgeon, who fills out the vaccination portion of the I-693 form and then signs it and seals it for you to put in with your AOS application. To the first appointment my husband brought the copy of his vaccines (the DS-3025 from his medical in his country...MMR, varicella and Td). Those are the three that need to be up to date when you file the AOS. He had to get a booster on the varicella, which cost $100 at a state clinic and we paid the civil surgeon (SIGH) $100 for filling out and signing the I-693 once we had proof of the second varicella.

If you still have questions, ask away!

With my AOS papers, we mailed the entire pack the Embassy gave me, containing all of my information obtained during the medical I had prior to my K1 interview.

(They gave me a copy of it, of course, since the original goes into the envelope for the immigration authorities at the POE and I copied it for the AOS.)

Our case was transfered to California a few days ago and so far we've not gotten any RFEs. My biometrics appointment is scheduled for about a week from today.
