How to transfer our child's vaccination records to the US?

I tried searching here on how to bring our USC child's vaccination records to the U.S. and making them official for admission into schools there, but I couldn't find anything.

Background:

- I'm a USC and my wife is a new LPR. She already got her IR1 visa stamped into her passport.

- We're scheduled to arrive in the U.S. in a week.

- We have a daughter together. Filed a CRBA and thus she is a USC.

- We did her vaccinations here in Vietnam and have a nice record of every shot. Has all the names of vaccines, injection dates, doctor stamps, etc.

- We followed her vaccination schedule most closely to the one recommended by WHO.

We're going to take her vaccination record with us, but how do we make it official in the U.S.?

Will the Vietnamese records itself suffice?

Or do we take them to a new pediatrician and explain that we need to make the record official and recognized by the U.S. school systems?

Could we somehow find a blank yellow card and write the vaccinations in ourselves, and have a doctor review it, then sign / stamp it?

I'm sure we're not the first ones to go through this, so I'd love to understand how this process is usually done.

Moving to a new address. What to do?

So we originally planned to move to my permanent address in Texas when we migrated to the U.S. But something came up, and we decided to become residents in Virginia instead.

1. On the DS-260 form and all of my petitioner forms, we entered our permanent U.S. address as the one in Texas.

2. However, we chose the Virginia address as the place to send my spouse's social security card and green card. My wife will confirm this address with the officer at POE as well.

Questions:

- Do we still need to file a AR-11 for changing the "permanent" address (not just the address where we want the SSC and GC to be sent to)?

- Do I also need to file a I-865 for changing my own address from Texas to Virginia?

N400 Eligibility Information Question

My wife is filling it out the N-400.

She is applying under the "3 Year Rule" based on her marriage to me (U.S. citizen), and is applying within the the 90 days before 3 years since she became a Permanent Resident (beginning of August will be the actual 3 year point).

For Part 1, Question 1, should she select B. Have been a lawful Permanent Resident of the United States for the last three years, or should she write into Other and explain that she is within the allowed 90 day window of the 3 years since she became a Permanent Resident (90-Day Early Filing Provision (INA 334) I think is what it's technically called)?

My assumption is that B is still acceptable and that they won't have trouble with that, but I could see a small argument that Other might technically be more correct. I imagine the Immigration Officer would sort it out anyway and it wouldn't be an issue, but I'm curious if others felt differently.

DS 260 "Have you ever been arrested..." question

Hello!

I'm working on the DS-260 for my father-in-law's IR-5 and was wondering about the "ever been arrested" question. He was never arrested in his home country (Vietnam) and his police record came back completely clear. However, several (~3) years ago, while fishing (his former job; he's retired now) he and the whole crew were arrested by Malaysian police and ended up spending about 9 months in jail in Malaysia. The charge was either fishing in Malaysian waters with an expired permit or no permit at all - can't remember exactly (regardless, they always fished exactly where the owner told them to). They were eventually all released when the owner of the fishing boat paid a certain amount of money - a fine, I suppose. I'm not sure exactly how it was all worded, or if there was ever a conviction per se as opposed to just being detained that long, but anyway he got out and went home and retired.

I'm assuming I should put all of this, in as much detail as possible? My wife thinks maybe we don't need to since it wasn't in Vietnam, and he probably wouldn't be able to get any kind of records from Malaysia if he needed to. Thoughts? And if fully disclosed, what are the chances a type of arrest/imprisonment like this would hurt his case? Would he be asked to provide some kind of hard(impossible? to obtain records from Malaysia?

Thanks for any and all help and advice!

Hi, I was just curious, the fingerprint fee was accepted 4/29/2021. Am I still another few years away from approval?

Thank you.
