Sinoxxx vaccines ok for USA immigration

[Hello-Everyone 6]

I know there has been talks about allowing WHO emergency use vaccines for travelers to the USA. How about for immigration purposes? Are the Chinese vaccines ok to receive with intention to immigrate to the USA on a CR1?

Yes, the ones listed for emergency use by WHO or authorized by FDA. Sinovac is on the WHO list. 
 

• If a COVID-19 vaccine listed for emergency use by the World Health Organization (WHO) or licensed or authorized for emergency use by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is available to the applicant in the country where the medical examination is conducted, the eligible applicant must complete the COVID-19 vaccine series in addition to all other necessary vaccines (see Figure 1 for proposed timeline).
