Please check to the embassy specified clinics and doctors first.

 

normally for ages 19-65 the vaccinations are suppose to be:

TB, mumps, rubella, chicken pox, measles and if in the season flu.

 

 

 

There are so many people in Spain who didn't get chickenpox vaccine. I am one of them. Once you have it you are immune to getting chickenpox again, so there is no point in getting a shot. I wonder if there is a waiver at AOS phase because, as far as I know, there is at the medical exam before the interview at the embassy.

If you got it than you tell it to your doctor. It doesn't say you have to do them now. It says that you have to have the immunity to these diseases. There are also tests such as titer tests (other than chicken pox) that they can check your immunity levels.

 

 For chicken pox you just need to tell them you had the disease. Again please contact to the clinic assigned to you by the embassy they have these information clearly.

Is there a chance I can get them for free through Social Security here in Spain?
I didn't know you need to get all those shots prior to NOA2

Yes, I got them for free through Social Security because I wasn't sure I ever had the infection (not even my parents) and I never got the vaccines for it. Although if you had the infection it's true you don't need the shots (there are two doses) but you have to prove it. There's probably some kind of test to see if you have the antibodies or you could also get vaccinated even if you don't really need it (your doctor should be able to tell you about your best option)

So, IF they're really processing applications from June 17th like VJ says on their "Processing times", then they're two weeks away (application date wise anyway) from July applications!

Won't everything slow down for the holidays? Christmas Eve and Christmas, New Year's Eve and New Years; so nearly 1 week of work days delayed?

 I was able to tease out of a live chat representative at the USCIS that my case is being actively processed right now. BIG should out to #Randi_603322  at the USCIS for being super helpful! Received date July 3rd.

Wow. I hope they really are processing early July. I’m also July 3, and the wait is ridiculous.

I'm starting to feel the stress. I thought this would be a short process and elected to go K1 over CR1, but somewhat regret it now.

Feels like even if/when we get NOA2s, we're still SOL for NVC. If I'm correct in understanding, they're backed up, as well.

My belief is that CR1s will also experience delays. USCIS is severely understaffed.

That is my belief as well. I would like to be pleasantly surprised, but I won't hold my breath.

Dear whatever deity there is out there.  Can you please assist the USCIS in getting caught up with their processes so I can see my family again?  It's been 3 years now.  I have been very patient.  I would be very grateful for some luck in the New Year.  This is my internet plea for some assistance.  Sending it out there to the internet galaxy.  Rollin' the dice.  This is a plea for all the people very patiently waiting to be with their significant others and family.  Santa Claus you can get in on this as well.  Amen.
