Medical Exam Updated - Needed or not?

[aleac 75]

Hi all,

 

I'm adjusting from a K-1 visa

Here's a quick timeline

 

Marriage Dec 22 - 2016

AOS Jan 22 (with updated vaccinations page)

May 22 - Advance Parole and Work Permit

Sep 28 Interview for Green Card (Notified August 30)

 

My medical exam (the one I did in Buenos Aires) expires September 16, so it will be expired when I have the interview.

 

The letter I received with the interview date does not request explicitly say "Updated Medical Required", it only requests "Medical Exam and Vaccinations unless already submitted"

I submitted an updated Vaccination page when I sent the AOS package in January

 

Thank you all !

You won't be needing another medical examination since you've already sent in the updated & sealed vaccinations envelope along with DS-3025 which is valid for one year for AOS with your I-485.

Thanks for your response!
Still, What I sent in January is only the vaccination page, not the whole medical exam.

So, there's as usual a grey area here

Usually, a new medical is not required for K-1 adjusters if the AOS application was filed with a valid and unexpired medical. If they have not asked for one, then I see no reason to worry about providing one at this time. If they need it, they will request it at that time.

Oh so you didnt send in the medical exam paper (DS-3025) along with the AOS.....

when you sent in the vaccinations page are all the sections marked as follows ?

[aleac 75]

Yes I sent that page DS-3025 (at least I believe my doctor included that in the sealed envelope that I'm not supposed to open)

That's is quite a relief to hear. I will go to the interview and pray for the best outcome.

Thank you and Aviinashh M for your help.
