Hi,

 

We recently just completed the K1 Visa and were married a few days ago (yay!).  Now we are adjusting status.  She just did her medical exam in the Philippines for the Embassy requirements not 3 months ago.  Wondering if we need to do another one for the I-693?  I'm seeing a lot of conflicting information on this subject. 

 

Thanks ahead of time.

No conflict,  instructions are clear.   No I693 required if she had her vaccinations done abroad an ds3025 is marked complete.   Also,  it's time to graduate to the AOS forum where topics such as this are actively discussed every day

Do you happen to know where on the USCIS website it states this? I would like to print it to bring it to my husband’s interview. He had his medical abroad for K1 (6 months before we submitted AOS), completed DS-3025 and provided a copy with our AOS (stating we were omitting I-693). I’m just concerned at our interview they will request I-693 and would like to be prepared. Thank you.

I think there is one fine print... we had a DS 3025 completed .. but it had no flu shot on it.  So out of abundance of precaution, we went to see a local approved doctor to get the vaccination record on I-693 part 10.   Paid like $40 and doctor said.. flu season, need flu shot, another $50.

 

Then doctor gave us a sealed envelope which we brought to interview on 2/8/21.

 

Officer said our medical was good before accepting the sealed envelope, but he said the more the better, easier for him to approve.

 

So... well... I can only conclude, do more better, u dont want a silly medical RFE to delay anything because of a officers error .

I693 instructions.  Read the section regarding the K visas.

In your case, flu shot would only be required if the interview was taking place in the same flu season as the one from when you did your medical, and only if the officer thinks the doctor made a mistake by not giving it to you/don't agree with the waiver.

 

Flu shot changes every year, so if it's not the same flu season, you don't need to take it for the interview.
