Do read here for Nich-Nick's post regarding your concern: http://www.visajourn...t/#entry6206232

Yes, the DS-3025 Vaccination record is sufficient as long as it's properly completed, and if the medical is done within a year of filing for AOS as well, there is no need for your wife to see a civil surgeon.

All the best!

The DS-3025 is the vaccination record provided during/after the applicant's medical. Only the panel physician in her home country can fill-out a DS-3025 for your wife. Did she receive anything that looks like this?: http://www.mrspresson.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/09-K1-Medical-Exam-at-SLEC_www.mrspresson.com_.jpg <Image courtesy of Mrs. Presson>

There will definitely be a copy of her medical results/ records in the visa packet, but sometimes, they misplace this. If your wife is 100% certain that she has no missing vaccine from her medical and no medical issues needed to be addressed, you guys can simply make a note on the cover letter about this with details such as the date and place where she had her medical.

Hopefully, somebody from DR can chime in, because there are also reports here that some panel physicians from other countries don't routinely give out a DS-3025.

My fiancé received a copy of the DS-3025, but it also had some vaccinations that were not given due to not being available. We went to the health department to get the remaining immunizations after we got married. Then took the records to a Civil Surgeon who completed the I-693 that we submitted with our AOS.

If she did not have vaccinations done at the K-1 medical and marked off on a properly filled out DS-3025, then she will need to see a civil surgeon for an I-693. She does not need a new medical, but she needs the missing vaccinations and page 1 and the vaccinations page of the I-693 filled out and signed by a civil surgeon. You can get the required vaccinations cheaper elsewhere, like the health dept., and then take the records of those vaccinations to a civil surgeon.

She will have to see a civil surgeon to complete the paperwork. Hopefully you will be lucky enough to find one who will not make you do the exam again (they are rare). My fiancee had to pay $300 to have the stinking exam here again for nothing because there were no civil surgeons willing just to give the vaccines and complete the paperwork.
