i AGREE YOU ARE GETTING WAY AHEAD OF YOURSELF

Please don't be spread that autism FUD, which has been entirely been revoked and the doctor responsible for starting it struck off. Do your research. It is NOT well documented, quite the opposite.

You don't know what you are talking about. It amazes me the level of ignorance that is running rampid here in America. Here are links to Autism and Vacs http://search.mercola.com/search/pages/Results.aspx?k=autism%20and%20vaccines, also I have several cases of fellow mothers who's children were vaccinated and developed Autism even a friend that lost their baby due to immunizations.

This is 100% correct. See this link. One of the world's premier medical journals was appalled at its mistake in publishing the data, and it retracted the paper. See especially the paragraph about the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention herein.

And the word is "rampant," not "rampid."

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the vaccinations aren't required for the K1 - just the AOS, right? So forego the vaccinations, get here, then worry about a waiver for the AOS vacinnation requirement?

[Daca 7]

Despite all the usual nonsense that seems to get discussed every time somebody asks a question about vaccine waivers, nobody has answered the original posters question, so I will try.

It is my understanding that if you try to obtain the visa without having the vaccines then you will be denied ad thus you will not be allowed to enter the USA until a successful waiver application has been approved, at least this is what I was told by the officer when I was denied. Your visa type may be different to mine but I think I am correct and the situation will be the same.

To all the people that love to argue about vaccines I recommend you do whatever works for you. The vaccine waiver is available and contrary to popular misconceptions, it is able to obtained.

Forget about how much it costs for the waiver, forget about using a lawyer, you don't really need one but if you really insist on one then I am sure there are plenty that are willing to take large sums of money from you to fill in a few bits of paper for you, but be warned you are putting your future in there hands, so make sure you pick a good one. Forget about how long it takes to process, and forget about what happens if you are not successful. If you are really, really genuine about your beliefs in regards to vaccines, which is what the vaccine waiver requirement requires. Then all of the above things, and the possibility of not entering America will not matter to you. If you are seriously going to be worried about any of the above then maybe you shouldn't apply for a vaccine waiver. Work out what is important to you, if your beliefs are genuine then you will go through with it. If not, and time and money are more important to you, then hey, just get the vaccines and then go and re-evaluate yourself, and also do some serious detoxing.

I went for the waiver with a clear heart and a clear mind fully aware of the consequences. Yes i was fearful of those consequences but I was willing to accept them and not let them force me into doing something that I do not believe is right. My wife stood by me and supported and shared my beliefs. We followed the rules and did what was required. We were in America 5 weeks after being denied.

Thank you for posting that link! It gave us so much hope:) He too is doing it for moral reasons. Really, thank you:)

I hope he does not get the visa. I don't want my children to get one of these deadly diseases. What is it with people? I mean MORAL purposes? How about the moral dilemma if you come to US and turns out you have an infectious disease? And say one child or several fall ill and even one of them dies? Does anyone have any moral objection to that? Get real, vaccines SAVE LIVES EVERY DAY in this world. Sure once in a while a person has an allergic reaction and yes once in a while someone dies but the numbers are miniscule as compared to the non-vaccinated population...sorry but the anti-vacinnation people don't care about anyone but themselves. They are selfish and self centered.

[David & Diana R 1,005]

Just to clarify...If people in America are immunized then how can a unimmunized person infect anyone?!?! They can't...It has been well documented that Autism is directly linked to immunizations, and that immunized people infect the unimmunized. OP I would encourage you to pray and however God answers you remain faithful to Him. If you both choose to not immunize and get approved I would be very interesting in hearing the update. My fiance and I have been discussing this very thing because by faith we are also counciled not to inject our bodies with chemical whether it is a dead or weakened strain. God be with ye!

With all due respect the news reports and studies over the past few years have disproven the immunization/autism link. Google some stats on immunizations and see how many thousands of lives have been saved since the advent of modern time and immunizations. I say this with all the kindness and love in my heart.

I apologize. I should not have said that I hope he does not get the visa. I honestly did not mean that. What I should have said was I hope he gets the immunizations so he will not suffer any infectious diseases. God Bless

My fiance and I have been worrying about what will happen if his K-1 gets denied for any reason. He does not want to get the vaccines that are required and will fill out the waiver for that, but if our visa gets denied will he be barred from entering the US to see me on a tourist visa?

I did not know the bene had a choice to get the immunizations or not - why would someone NOT want to get them if they are serious about moving to the states?

thanks!

I think most people have general anxiety about the process, but truly as everyone else has said, give it a try! if what you have is real, the CO's will see that. good luck on this LONG, LONG journey!

Stop arguing about the benefits and harms of vaccines. The OP didn't ask for our opinions.

The US allows for a waiver. It's a legal option for the OP. If you don't like it, then ask Congress to disallow all vaccine waivers.

The OP has a LEGAL RIGHT to seek a waiver. The OP asked for help. The OP did not ask us for our opinions on vaccines.

Vaccination is not; I repeat NOT required for a K1 Visa; only required if you do the AOS. The issue is your going to have to due them regardless. But once again VACCINATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED FOR K1 VISA. Some Doctors due push the vaccinations as part of their medical examination

sorry but I've to disagree with you! I'm a psychologist and I work with kids in early development. I'm tiring of reading that autism and vaccinations. That's NOT true. I've been working with autistic kids for 6 years and autism its something you are born with, not something you caught out there. Of course, a baby can get s meningitis or high fever and end up having any kind of brain damage (with or without vaccines) but autism? No

sweetheart, even when I always support the idea of not hiring lawyers for immigration purposes, I think you should talk to one. I do believe that vaccines should be something mandatory cause it safe lifes, but I also respect your religious and moral backgrounds. For what I read ANYONE of us has a CLEAR idea on how the vaccines waivwer works. So you better save time and go and to a professional. Have you search in the USCIS website? Try to cintact them if you can. Personally I've heard is not easy but I bet is not impossible mostly because we live in a country where your belief are sacred, is a right. Hope you find a clear and accurate answer and just wish you the best.

No Vaccines = No Visa

unless you have a no-brainer reason why.

if she really loves you, she will get the vaccine....
