Thank you both for your help. Can we file the adjustment of status before the two shot series for MMR and TDAP are completed? Or do we have to wait until my wife has received both shots in the series. From the vaccine records it looks like we are going to need to start the shots over again, so that would mean waiting a month at least before we could file the AOS.

Here is a picture of the envelope my wife received at st.lukes

Here it is

Hi, I have a question on the I-693 form. My fiancé and I just got married in the USA. My fiancé is from Manila, and we just received the marriage certificate in the mail today from our wedding one week ago. We are getting ready to file for adjustment of status. She came here on a K-1 visa on 8/29. She received, at at. Luke's (location of medical exam) an envelope that says, in red, do not open, to be opened only by the United States consular officer at the time of interview. She got some of her vaccines(MMR), TDAP in Manila at at st. Luke's during her medical, but the form said the vaccine history is incomplete. I'm not sure what we have to do now. Can we just get the vaccines at a doctor in the USA and have them fill out a vaccine record? I'm still not sure what the stapled envelope was for that she received at st.lukes. We haven't opened the envelope, in case we need it for a later interview. Do we need to get all of her shots before sending in adjustment of status forms? Thanks for any help you can give

Hi,

My fiancé (beneficiary) lives in the Philippines. So far everything is going well and we have received the I-797 for our K-1 visa application. This letter says our application has been approved. However, apparently the next steps are the frustrating ones. My fiancé has been trying to make an online interview appt for two weeks now for the Manila embassy, and it keeps showing up as "no appointments available". I had thought that the embassy would contact us when an appt was scheduled, but apparently they don't do that anymore so we have been trying to schedule the appt. what happens if we keep getting this no appt available message? Do we have to start this whole process over again?? Very frustrating. They like taking your money but then don't provide the appointments. Is anybody else running into this issue? It seems like luck of the draw as far as getting apps. Shouldn't they do it based on priority/processing date of the application? With this system, conceivably people with later filing dates can get interview apps ahead of us simply because they happened to be on the computer at the right time.
