Immunizations

[seekingthetruth 1,246]

We are just starting out on visa journey for my Filipina wife and step-daughter.  Another post about immunizations prompted me to post a few questions.

 

1.  Will my wife and teenage step-daughter be required to have proof of certain immunizations when they attend the medical at SLEC?  If so, is there a list someplace and/or more information on immunizations?

 

2.  My two other kids are U.S. citizens.  Am I correct in assuming that they will not require any immunization records until they enroll in U.S. schools?

 

3.  We are probably headed for Texas.  Is there a central source in Texas for immunizations required to enter Texas schools?

 

Thanks in advance!  Any info that will save me some digging time is greatly appreciated!

Thank you!  I just discovered that Yahoo mail was sending some, not all VJ notifications to my spam.  I hope that will stop.

 

Is there a way to find out what SLEC will require?  I would rather have them done and bring the proof.

 

I did find the Texas school list.  Quite extensive for my 2 grade school kids.  I know that they have quite a few but I will make sure they are up-to-date.  Here is the link, if it helps anyone.

My oldest daughter will only require meningitis vaccine to enter college.

Vaccinations are included in the fee so no reason to do them early.

 

Typically tdap, mmr  and varicella history
