Hi everyone,

Is there a comprehensive list of vaccinations I can look at for my K-1 visa? I'm a long ways away from that part of the application but hey, I need to do something to help pass the wait time and making sure I have everything I need - even if I don't need it right now, is helping. :)

I attended university in the States (10 years ago) and I needed to have certain vaccines before entering the country back then. So I'm just wondering if I have everything I need already or if there are more to get. Is there a list I can look at to check my records against ?

Also, how intensive is the medical? Where can I find the current form? We don't have a hospital on my island which would mean I would need to travel to the capital to have the medical done which is an expense I'm not looking forward to. I was hoping a doctor right here on my island could do it but if it involves X-rays, lab tests and all that then definitely no.

Hi there! I don't know if you've now had the medical, but I was looking into it too and found this helpful page:

It has a section about the vaccinations, including which ones are necessary.

Also, this page (http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/immigrant-process/interview/prepare/medical-examination.html) tells you a lot of stuff you need to know about the medical :)
