Hi everyone, hope all is well.

So, I just received the letter for my biometrics appt., so i'm assuming that the thing after this will be to get an interview, which would mean I have to go get my medical letter.

 

So, I have my vaccination card from my foreign country but I'm wondering-- if I'm missing any vaccinations, will the doctor who's doing my medical exam here in the states provide me my missing vaccinations before completing the card? Or am I supposed to go to the doctor beforehand (before my medical exam date) to get checked for any possible missing vaccines and have those administered prior to? 

 

Thank you.

They will give them at your medical exam, at an additional cost.  We made an appointment with our regular doctor so that the vaccines can be checked and given (and paid for through insurance) prior to the medical exam.

Thank you. 

several to many months of backlog in front of you before you get an interview.   Don't do the exam to early or run the risk of expiration. 

YMMV
