I’m getting ready to file my K1 and i just want to be as prepared as possible, as I’ll be going to visit my fiancé again soon and i want to get as much done while I’m there as possible. I know the exam is far off still but i want to get as much paperwork and evidence collected as possible. I saw on the Embassy page that he needs to bring a vaccination card for his medical exam or he’ll have to pay for all vaccines which is I’m sure expensive. He says he doesn’t have a vaccination card. Is there any way he can get proof of this or can anyone tell me how much it costs approximately if he needed to have all the vaccines? His medical exam will be in Tegucigalpa. Thank you so much in advance!!

He can go to his doctor and get blood drawn to send out for serology or titre test. He should take the list of vaccinations he needs for the medical exam and get them to test for those ones specifically. If it shows that he has immunity to them, then that could be used as proof of vaccination.   I used my serology/titre test to show proof of my Varicella vaccination or immunity, as I lost my record of receiving the vaccination. If it shows that he doesn’t have immunity, then he can get the vaccinations done at his doctors, usually for cheaper than the immigration doctors. 

 

The medical exams only have 6 months validity once completed, so you should only do it once you have your visa interview date, or else it’s a big expense you may have to do twice! Also 6 months validity to enter the USA with an approved visa from the completed medical date. It would be a good idea to start on the vaccination serology soon, that way if he needs some he has plenty of time to do the whole series of vaccinations, as some have a 3 shot series.

 

Good luck!
