Hi people, I need some help, my fiance has a son that is 20 years old and will be coming to the usa with her. question #1 will she need to get a sign statement from the boys father saying it is ok for the boy to go to the USA with his mother? Question #2, My fiance has ask her doctors for any records of vaccination she and the boy has had, they seem not to have them or didn't keep a good record. Can she and the boy get all vaccinations needed at the same time as the medical exam that will be done ? Question #3 Is there anything else that anyone can tell me she might need before the interview, so she can start now on getting? She has already received the police report on her and her son, all is ok on that. Any help would be greatly appreciated

1. Yes - most, if not all, countries require this.

2. That would be a good idea - since it will be required for the visa(s).

3.

Question 1: Probably not but depends on country laws. The consulate must also comply with the laws of the country regarding this matter. In Ukraine it was only necessary for children under 16, most countries are age 18 and there may be a few age 20 or 21. Check with the consulate you will use as they are suually specific about this very important issue. It should be in their directions for K-1/K-2 visa applications

Question 2: Depends o the medical exam clinic. Call them and ask. There would (most likely) be fees for the needed vaccinations. They can also have them done by any qualified doctor before the medical exam and bring the records to the medical exam to be transcribed onto the DS-3025 form.

Question 3: The consulate should have at their website the "checklist" for K-1/K-2 visas. Review that and see what else is needed. She will definitely need birth certificates for both and they must be translated in addition to the police certificate and translation

1. Guangzhou only requires a 'quit claim' or proof of custody if the child is under 18.

2. They should be able to get any vaccinations they need at the Quarantine Bureau Office when they go to get their international vaccination records. Just bring evidence of any vaccinations they already have.

3. Check the list for K1/K2 applicants. Be sure to read the letters that are included with the packets.

Important: Make sure you file for AOS for the boy BEFORE he turns 21. CSPA does not cover K2's.

The boy is 20 years old, so we will need nothing? they live in China, is there certain kind of vaccines they will need, it doesn't seem like anyone will give them there records or don't have them, i'm not sure, i have hit a road block here on this one with her. All of her birth cert, police records and everything has been translated into english.

K1s can get there immunizations after arrival so I wouldn't worry about it. If they want to get some at the medical exam they can. After they arrive you can draw titers for Hep B, MMR, if they're immune they won't need the shots. Your wife is past 26 so she won't need a Gardisil. The civil surgeon can note the positive titers on the vaccine supplement that you'll need to submit with their AOS packages in lieu of the shot history.

Shouldn't have to involve the father because of his age but Guangzhou is sometimes very picky about being sure it is really her son. They sometimes ask for pictures showing them together at various ages. Some people get blue with a request for DNA testing. There are only a few labs they accept the DNA testing from and I'm not sure if it is something you can do proactively and hand them at the interview or even send with the P3 package.

Thank you so much, a few questions, she can get he immunizations when arrival where? at the medical exam, or at the USA, I know she has had all of her Hep A and B as she works for the Government, but she doesn't seem to understand how she can get records for all of her shots. She has many pictures of her and the boy all threw his 20 years. I am not sure what a titer is, dum huh? This is all new to me and all of the help I am so gratful for.

Thanks, if there is anything you can tell me to do ahead of time, please do, she has got her and the boys police report and in english.
