Hi Everyone,

I am going to be moving to the States in a couple months and am reviewing the medical exam requirements for AOS. I did my medical exam with a civil surgeon in early May for the K1 (last month) and he filled out the Vaccination Document Worksheet (DS 3025). In reviewing my copy, the civil surgeon signed below stating that "US vaccination requirements COMPLETE," however, in reviewing the sheet, he has forgotten one of my tetanus immunizations which puts my in the requirement of having it within the last ten years (which I have documentation that I received, and submitted to him for him to fill out this form). My question is what should I do, and will this even matter since I have all the required immunizations? Does anyone think that the officer may overlook this after seeing that it was signed that everything was complete? Or do I have to go to another civil surgeon in the States just for this one correction?

This is very frustrating.

Thanks

It all depends on which officer works your case in America. Some of them won't even notice and some of them will make you go to another CS to have it completed. So it's a bit of a gamble. You can play it safe and go to a CS in America and have them fill out a form for you (call around since some would want to redo the whole medical and others charge an arm and a leg for transcription). The other option is to submit it as is and wait to see if they send you a request for the completed medical. This could end up delaying your greencard and costing you a trip to the CS anyway. When we filed AOS the wait times were just starting to be faster than 1 year for the green card (I don't know what they are now) but people were getting RFEs to redo their medicals because they'd expired. The absolute worst case situation would be to pay to get it fixed and then have to redo it anyway because of the processing times. So you might want to check those before making your decision.
