Medical - COVID vaccine

[CarlosV 2]

My wife's and daughter's medical appointment is this Friday. They are requiring that both are fully vaccinated for COVID. I thought this was stopped?

 

Anyone know?

Still in effect for immigrant visas.

As of November 30, 2023, all immigrant visa candidates must have a 3rd dose of any Covid Vaccine administered.

COVID vaccine remains a mandatory part of the medical. Otherwise, you have an option to file a waiver based on religious/moral exemption grounds that will prolong your case by roughly 2 years. A good attorney is able to assist, but I’ve also seen cases of successful DIY’s if you’re willing to put in work and research.

Three off topic posts and two quoting them , in violation of the my instruction above, were removed. Cease all political discussion and stick to the immigration process. Start a thread in the CEHT forum as instructed above if you wish to have that sort of a debate.

When you say "put in the work and research," what do you mean by that? My spouse is unvaccinated and we want to apply for the CR-1. What would we need to do?

A lot of homework.  Subject matter is "waiver of COVID vaccine for US Immigrant visa".
