Medical Question

[midicat 0]

Hey all,

I had just a quick question which i'm hoping someone here can help me with. Back a little while ago we received an RFE for my husbands medical exam. It didn't really state what it was for, they made it seem like we didn't send it in the first place, but i'm worried that if I send it again - and that's not what they were actually sending the RFE for it could just cause problems. I know if you get the medical exam in certain countries which I understand the UK to be one of those you don't have to get some kind of translation done, you just need a supplement form. Which I do remember sending in with it I believe. Anyway in the first place I never really understood his medical and I was hoping someone could help me out with this. There are two rows that have check marks in them which are Completed series (if completed, write "VH" if varicella history, or write date of lab test if immune), and not age appropriate. His looks like this...

DT/DTP/DTaP Not age app

TD K1 (in completed history slot)

Polio Not age app

Measles K1

mumps K1

rubella K1

Hib Not age app

Hepatitis B Not age app

Varicella VH

Pnumococcal Not age app

Influenza Not age app

Then at the bottom it says "Vaccine history incomplete (check)" "Applicant may be eligible for blanket waiver(s) because... (K1 Visa)"

So what does all this mean? I mean is it saying he needs the ones that say K1 or does that mean he already has them? Whats the blanket waiver thing? Mainly I just want to know if I send it in again is it complete we I shouldn't get another RFE. We've been so busy recently we haven't had time to think about the stupid USCIS Thanks ahead of time.

As a K-1, you can defer or "waive" your vaccinations until adjustment of status application, at which time any age appropriate required vaccinations need to be done (or in process).

well... what i kind of meant was, the ones marked k-1 does that mean he needs to get those vaccinations? Is that why I got an RFE is because I don't have evidence that he actually had those vaccinations completed?

You probably need to but only a CS can tell you exactly what is needed to complete the AOS requirement
