Hi All,

 

Gathering. all evidences fro my dad's i-485 application. Is it mandatory to submit medical/ Vaccination record as well?

 

He is currently in US on visitor visa

 

Another question - Do we need to submit Passport photos as well?

Are you a USC?

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

We sent my mother's medical with all the other forms. I know some people wait for the RFE and send it after. USCIS likes seeing a recent doctor's signature but I also think that I-693 validity is now extended to two years. I would personally send it and if they ask you to resend then do so when requested. If you receive no RFEs then you will not waste a month or two getting and replying to RFEs. 

 

Medical examination is most certainly mandatory so based on what I wrote above you will have to submit it now or later.

Submit all forms at once. 

You need PP pictures

From what I have seen it is normal for Indian Parents of USC's to travel with their documentation.

 

The Civil Surgeon can undertake a titre test/administer needed vaccinations.

Hello! 

 

I applied for I-485 for my dad in Feb 2024 and received an RFE in May 2024 which we submitted and still waiting for a decision. 

I am travelling to India In November end(My dad currently with my sister and he is not travelling with us) and my worry is what if the I-485 appointment letter comes while we are not here? Can these appointments be rescheduled?
