Dear VJers -

I am seeking clarification on the vaccination requirements. My spouse is in her late 20s and she does not have any vaccination records.

Will she be given all the vaccinations during the the medical examination? Is it physically possible to get all the shots in one setting? What if some vaccinations require another shot (a month later), do I have to wait to complete it prior to appearing for the interview?

One of the members said that the doctor will decide which vaccination is required. Which means I have to wait until the medical examination to find out which vaccinations are required?

Thanks for help

I do not have too much information on this but let me give you what I know. My wife is in her mid 20's. She did not have any vaccination records. She had her medical done two weeks ago. They gave her 4 vaccination shots at one time. I am not sure which ones they gave her though. They will give you all the shots at once. Everything will be done in one visit, and the report was ready next day evening. This was done in Chennai.

Vj Members,

My wife got her medical and her biometrics done two weeks ago. Her interview is scheduled for this 23rd. She had registered on US Travel Docs India for the biometrics appointment, and pickup location of passport. I went in to check to make sure everything was ok in US travel Docs website, but it doesn't show an appointment time, or pickup location or anything. I am thinking this is cleared since she got her fingerprints done, but atleast it should show passport pickup location right?

Everything is now blank on the home page. I just want to make sure that they have the right pickup location registered. I tried to go back in and reinput the information, but it asks to set up an appointment at OFC again, so i cancelled that.

She does have a printout of the fingerprint appointment letter that has the pickup location on there.

Any insight would be helpful.

Thanks,

Jay

No, if you meet the requirements as of this moment (for a 2 person household right now it's $19,387), you do not need a joint sponsor. You should be fine! Good luck.

Thanks for the help Sethless!

This helps. Just want to make sure.

I just want to confirm this as well. I got a full time job January 2012. So I have income above the poverty line only from January 2012 to date. I was a student in 2011, 2010 filing dependently with my parents. I filed independently for 2012. Is it better to have a sponsor with me, or is it sufficient enough for just my sponsorship for my wife?

I am thinking about getting a sponsor anyways, its just extra paperwork I do not want to do if I don't have to.

Thanks for the help!

Jay
