Nein, war nicht nur Tdap. Tdap war nur das, was fürs Visum relevant ist.

Und wenn das vaccination supplement Dingens DS305 (oder so ähnlich), komplett aus dem Medical mitkommt, wieso soll man dann beim AOS Probleme haben?

Nehmen wir an, jemand macht Medical im July - keine flu shot season, es ist nicht an Grippeimpfstoff ranzukommen. Dann kriegt jemand im August sein Visum und geht im Oktober in die USA, heiratet und filed Anfang November AOS. Und nun? Medical ist noch valid, das vaccination supplement auch - wie soll der/die Person dann einen Flushot nachweisen? Nur deswegen ein neues Medical machen?

Und PS: Ja, man kann sehr wohl überimpfen...es gibt eine ganze Latte Kontraindikationen.

Mit der Impfgeschichte, da bin ich einfach anderer Meinung, so auch Aerzte. Ich komm aus einer Arztfamilie, und bei mir wuerde keiner sagen man kann sich ueberimpfen, solange man sich nicht dreimal im Jahr, gegen das selbe impfen laesst. Der Zweck waere halt in Frage zu stellen. Ich hatte letztes Jahr z.B. ne Tetanus bekommen, weil mich ein Hund gebissen hatte. Nun hatte ich nochmal Tetanus Diphterie bekommen, um Diphterie abzudecken. Na und? Passiert auch nichts. MMR ist ungefaehrlich, da kann man nach 10 Jahren schon mal ne Impfung machen lassen. Aber das kannst du selber entscheiden. Du frags nach Ratschlaegen, und das ist lediglich mein ehrlicher Ratschlag.

Ja in deinem Falle muesste die Impfung hier nachgeholt werden, und dann beginnt der Spass. Theoretisch wuerdest du kein neues Medical brauchen, lediglich das Vaccination Sheet ergaenzt (Form I-693), und ne Unterschrift eines General Physicians von der USCIS Website. Wie auch immer, das Problem ist, viele Aerzte kennen nicht die genauen Regeln und Richtlinien, und es hat mich viel Frust gekostet, einen Arzt zu finden der lediglich die Impfungen uebertraegt und unterschreibt. Viele wollten nicht unterschreiben, ohne ein neues Medical zu machen. Problem hier der Kostenpunkt. Neues Medical ca 360 USD, uebertragen ca. 30-80 USD. Es steht zwar alles auf der Form drauf, dass lediglich eine Umschreibung erfolgen muss, aber man kann die Aerzte ja schlecht zwingen das so zu machen. Wie gesagt, Theorie und Praxis sind nicht immer identisch. ich hatte letztlich Glueck und habe den Spass fuer rund 50 USD bekommen inklusive Flu Shot, aber es gibt viele andere Mitglieder hier, die nicht so viel Glueck hatten (siehe AOS Forum).

Wieso sollte die Imfpung denn nachgeholt werden müssen, wenn das DS-3025 komplett ausgefüllt ist? Ich bin vollständig geimpft....

Bei AOS von K1 schickt man das DS-3025 als Kopie ein - USCIS hat es sowieso im braunen Umschlag beim POE erhalten - und solange das DS-3025 komplett ausgefüllt ist, die relevanten Impfungen abgehakt sind und die Box "blanket waiver" angekreuzt ist - braucht man kein I-693. Das Medical darf nicht älter als ein Jahr sein, aber das dürfte ja bei K1 eh selten der Fall sein.

Wieso sollte gegen einen Virus geimpft werden, bereits veraltet ist, und was hat eine saisonale Grippe mit Immigration zu tun?? Es macht nunmal nicht immer alles Sinn. Es gibt hier einfach verschiedene Erfahrungswerte. Einige hatten keine Probleme, einige hatten. Letztlich liegt es bei dir. Ich bin auf Nummer sicher gegangen. Meinte ja nur wenn du weisst, dass dein AOS und Hochzeit in die Grippe Saison faellt, dann wuerde ich es halt machen, sicher ist sicher, und bisher bin ich damit ganz gut gefahren. Mal sehen was andere sagen, oder poste deine Frage ins AOS Forum.

Woher weisst du eigtl schon wann dein Medical ist, wenn du noch kein NOA2 hast? Warte ab wenn du deine Einladung zum Interview hast, dann weisst du wann dein Medical ist, und eventuell hat sich die Frage dann eh eruebrigt. ;)

Also, habe das ganze schon hinter mir - medical war im Juni oder Juli (weiß nicht mehr genau, jedenfalls Sommer) in London - ohne Grippe, Visa im September und AOS im Januar mit dem Nachweis vom Londoner Medical und das ging ganz Problemlos auch ohne Grippeimpfung.

Hi,

Its the middle of the night here (NY) so forgive me for reverting to English, but I have an important question to ask of those who have been the German fiance/e. Chris is getting his documents together and he said there is more than one type of police certificate available, equivalent to short and long form, and is a bit confused about which one he will need. Can anyone give me the exact title of the police certificate document which Frankfurt requires, please?

Thanks!

Since the question was in English, I am replying in English as well. Sorry :(

I am doing the CR1 route but I do not think that makes a difference when it comes to the police certificate!

I´ve got the "einfaches Führungszeugnis" which is btw. the only one they will send to you directly. All other ones will be send to the official offices on request or employer directly. NVC accepted it so obviously it was the right one.

Hope that helps. :)

I'm a K1 fiancee .My english is not good enough for this text so I want write in german and you can show it your fiance to read it.

Für das K1 Visum braucht man einfach nur das polizeiliche Führungszeugnis.Ich habe bisher noch nie davon gehört das es verschiedene Arten davon gibt.Entweder ist etwas eingetragen weil man was verbrochen hat oder eben nicht.Man bekommt es im Stadtbüro/Gemeinde,es kostet 13 € und man bekommt es zugeschickt.

Im Zweifel würde ich einfach beide nehmen,obwohl ich wie gesagt noch nie gehört habe das es verschiedene Arten gibt.

Ruf doch einfach mal bei deiner Stadt an und frag nach.

Ich hoffe ich konnte ein bisschen helfen :)

Nur zur Info: es gibt mehrere Arten, die aber meiner Meinung nach fürs Visum KEINE Relevanz haben.

Die sog. erweiterten Führungszeugnisse betreffen weitere Eintragungen, die besonders für soziale Einrichtungen (Kindergärten etc.) wichtig sind. Diese erweiterten Führungszeugnisse können nur von diesen sozialen Arbeitgebern oder Behörden angefordert werden und werden denen auch nur direkt zugeschickt.

Das einfache polizeiliche Führungszeugnis ist das einzige, das man an seine eigene Adresse zugeschickt bekommt.

solus, don't take me as a grumpy old German, but didn't you already ask that question before (and receive a detailed answer by Jas) in a specific police certificate thread? I'm not trying to do the work of a mod by saying this shouldn't belong here, but you'll usually have a higher chance of finding answers by asking in/creating specific threads for it. :)

I did, but I waited 2 days with no response, so I asked here where people seemed to be more active, and I was right lol. By the time I got the response in the other thread he was already home and the office closed, its a small country office only open until noon a few days a week.

Thanks for the responses everyone! And I do speak German, just not bureaucratic German in the middle of the night ;)

The offices take 3 days to get it for you, shouldn't be an issue. Your profile still says NOA1. If that's correct, you should wait until you actually compile package 3. That way the certificate is not that old when it comes to the actual interview. ;)

The offices take 3 days to get it for you, shouldn't be an issue. Your profile still says NOA1. If that's correct, you should wait until you actually compile package 3. That way the certificate is not that old when it comes to the actual interview. ;)

Thanks for the advice, but we should be hearing soon, and Chris is in Germany now. He has been spending the time he could here in the US with me as a visitor. I actually lived in Germany for many years, and then we both did grad school in the UK together, so it seems weird to be apart when weve been living together for 6 years.

In the October 2014 forum several people the week before us have received their NOA2s this week, so we are trying to get the needed paperwork together now. Its more than 3 days from his office, its a rural office in Oberasbach, so they told him it takes about 2-3 weeks, if not longer, when he was there before (also when they asked him which of the types he needed). This would all be easier if he lived in the jurisdiction of a city lol. Birth certificates are also going to take 3-4 weeks... In Nürnberg, which is like 10km away, this stuff only takes a week max....

Seems to be a bit slow in Bavaria then. My parents live in a small village, very rural, and the office took 3 days for the police certificate. My hometown, Stralsund, which is not that large, only took 1 day to send out my birth certificate. That's very unfortunate to hear that it takes that long, I guess you being proactive seems to be the only way there.
