Does anyone know where I can get a list of the required vaccines/shots needed for the i-129F medical exam?

Is it possible/recommended to start getting the vaccines before the actual medical so that he doesn't need to get them all in the same day? I've read that it's possible, but I can't find a list of which vaccines are needed

You can go to the USCIS website. I think my fiance got a booster shot that covered everything. You can check your country specific portal and see if they do that as well. Good luck!

I would say yes. I started looking into the same thing here in Canada and it's advised as it costs money getting it done from the Dr doing the medical here..... and free at the Health Unit

There are also vaccinations that you can't get all at the same time..... ie. Hep B is a 6 month run..... but that's only for ages up to 18....

When doing research for here, all I need is a tetanus and flu shot :) hopefully it's as simple as that for you.

You only need to get the age appropriate vaccinations. You can get them before your medical and take your records with you so they can mark them off on the DS-3025, or you can get them at the medical exam, if they give them to K-1 applicants.

If you are over 18, you only need one in a series(or booster) for:

MMR

Tdap/TD

Varicella (unless you already had the chickenpox)

Flu shot (only if it is flu season)
