Hi I don’t exactly remember all the cost from the vaccines my family and I got. But this I what I can remember. We all got influenza which was 2500. I got Tdap which was about 5000. My little brother got 4 (including influenza), tdap and another 2. His vaccines were in total 11,500. And my dad only got 1 which was influenza. Hope that helps. 

Ps I’ll be posting my interview update shortly.

Thank you, that helps a lot. How far in advance of your appointment did you complete your medical?

I did my interview yesterday at Andrews Memorial Hospital. It was a loooooonnggg day!! Got there at 7:45am handed over my passport, pictures and interview letter and got #23.....I waited from that time until 12pm I finally received my receipt to pay the initial fee $23320!! Sat and waited for another hour to be called to have my weight, height, pressure and vision tested. They told me to sit and wait again after that I had my blood and urine test Shortly after I had my X-ray done. By this time around 1:45 I had to sit and wait again to have my one on one with the doctor and have my vaccinations done. I left at 2:45pm. Over all my experience was something I wish I never have to do again some of the staff was friendly. Word of advice bring food, water and something to keep u occupied

Hello! Congratulations on your progress! I am curious to know how it goes when we have a lawyer. Does my husband have to pay at the time of the exam? Guess I should ask the lawyer but am hopeful you know how it goes. Thanks for any information

Hey I haven’t received a notices yet of my fiancé medical date as yet but quick question are they still saying that they need to see a  psychiatrist if they have a pass of smoking  marijuana ?....... also if anyone here ever filed a k1 how long after you make your interview appointment they schedule your medical ?? 

[sher-sunshine 13]

Did you request an appointment as soon as you got the interview date? I got mine within a week of requesting one online. Which was 2 weeks before my interview

Maybe you should try calling the hospital first and explain to them the situation and maybe they can fit u in. Changing your interview date can add weeks or more to your wait time. While I was at the hospital a older gentleman had his interview two days after.
