I was preparing DS-160 and one of the question says: "Do you have documentation to establish that you have received vaccinations in accordance with US law?"

As or right now, I don't have any documenation becuase I haven't had the medical exam yet. I will have it a week before the interview and then the doctor will send the results directly to the consolate.

Here is my question: If I answer "No" to the above question then I get a popup box asking for an explanation. What should I put in that box?

Thank you.

The k-1 does not technically require vaccinations before entering the US (says this on the state department's website), maybe you could put something along those lines? Maybe 'vaccinations not required for K-1 visa, I will obtain these in the US as required by US law when adjusting my status'. I had my fiance get his when we first sent in the i-129f so he fortunately is covered.. plus they are cheaper in his country than in the US ;)

I had my interview on march and I filled out the ds-160 on february, I answered yes.

Because at the moment of your interview your medical exam will be at the consulate, so you have documentation that show you have vaccinatons required.

This makes sense. We'll probably follow that idea.
