Does anyone here declines to get the immunization? Already had immunization records. Do they still require you to get immunize at slec?  Also at US embassy in manila on your interview, do they ask for your immunization records from slec?

To get GC you'll either need to get an immunization or waiver approved. Waiver with prior immunization is possible, but not easy. Waiver also takes more time and money.

 

You can postpone vaccinations and deal with it in the US if prefer. But you'll have to satisfy the civil surgeon and USCIS to get GC.

 

Good luck!

Yes I see, but a representative from St lukes medical says immunization records from their clinic is required to get in the US. So I dont know how to get an expemtion, looks like most of the K1 visa applicants I encounter had their immunization done there. However they said covid vaccine is not required.

My fiancee just had her medical last week... She had the VaxCert from the Philippine Dept. of Health so she did not have to get the Covid Vaccine but she did have to get 5 others because she had no other vaccine records. When you go to the embassy for your interview, all you bring with you is the sealed brown envelope that SLEC gives you at releasing

Let me very specific, you have to bring all your vaccination records during your medical then they will decide which vaccinations are needed are some are not available or to be hold for example if you are trying to be pregnant. Also, check the requirements.

Kindly, read the following:

reference:U.S.A. Visa Applicant | St. Luke's Medical Center Extension Clinic (slec.ph)

 

Note: The following documents are for information purposes only and will not replace the required test.

 

SELF-REPORTED VACCINES WILL NOT BE HONORED.

Your vaccination documentation will only be honored if it contains the following details:

  • Old chest x-ray films taken 3 months prior to the medical examination, or older

  • Original COVID-19 Vaccination card and photocopy

  • Immunization record, Original and 5 photocopies

    • personal copy (e.g. baby book)or copy of medical chart indicating received vaccines

    • complete date of receipt of vaccination

    • must include signature (license number, if applicable) of doctor or health worker who administered vaccine
