Hi All :) So hubby and I sent off our I-130 to VSC and our priority date is April 23rd 2012. I'd like to be proactive if possible so was wondering if I could get my immunizations done in the meantime. Can I or do I have to wait? Also, I had a US Student Visa and for that application I had to go for vaccinations, can some of the info from this record be used or no? Your help would be appreciated.

Cheers and Thanx in advance

Chery

Absolutly! Do you have a vaccination record? I only had to get 2 and I got them done before my medical so the medical could be completed the day of, and not have to return with an updated vaccination chart.

Good luck

It will obviously vary by country. There are only 3 docs you can go to in Canada. The one I went to in Toronto had a website listing all the things you need and what is required. You should try looking it up or try posting in the SA forums

Good luck

This is the question I've been trying to get answered. For Barbados, hepatitis is required and it consists of 3 vaccines all roughly 4 weeks or more apart. Is it ok to get the first 2 in Barbados and then continue with the other in the US?
