Vaccine Requirement for Green Card (Follow to Join)

[ARSN 0]

Can anyone confirm what vaccinations are required for an adult age between 18-64 for immigration into the US ?

 

According to the Travel Gov State website the following vaccines are required for immigration purposes:

• Hepatitis A
• Hepatitis B
• Influenza
• Influenza type b (Hib)
• Measles
• Meningococcal
• Mumps
• Pneumococcal
• Pertussis
• Polio
• Rotavirus
• Rubella
• Tetanus and diphtheria toxoids
• Varicella

 

They provided the below table to showcase which vaccination applies for which age groups. However it is not clear how up to date this information is.

I have not taken vaccinations for Varicella, Meningococcal and Pneumococcal. Are these required for an adult age between 18-64 ?

 

Any clarification would be appreciated.

Required vaccinations for adult applicants up to 59 years old -- Td/Tdap, MMR, Varicella, Hepatitis B, Flu (seasonal), COVID.  Up-to-date requirements from CDC here -- https://www.cdc.gov/immigrantrefugeehealth/panel-physicians/vaccinations.html#tbl1

 

If you've had chickenpox before, the clinic may take your word for it and not require Varicella vaccine.  Full series of shots for COVID will be required prior to the medical, but boosters not required for immigration purposes.

Thank you.
