I am also applying for I-601 waiver for the vaccines for religious objections .  I told the doctor at the medical and he noted it on my medical form.   I had my interview not that long ago.   The consulate already knew I was applying for a waiver.  I didn’t have to tell them.  The interview went well but I  was refused (denied) the immigrant visa at the consulate interview for  not completing the vaccines and deemed “inadmissible”.  I mailed my waiver this week.  I have heard of recent vaccine approvals a few months ago even for someone (AOS processing) who had vaccines not that long ago.  Hers was approved very quickly.  I am praying it will be approved and approved quickly as a matter of discretion based on my sincere beliefs.   If the waiver is denied,  what then?  does that mean you are banned entry as an immigrant and non-immigrant?  

Can you please share how your process went?  My husband filed the waiver and was approved in 2020- pre rona jab.  I am looking for information on how this process is looking with this new injection added.  Thank you

Yes, the announcement was back in early November that they're extending the requirement until January 8 2023 for travel to US except for non-USC, LPRs and some other categories including immigrants. 

 

Ahh yess. As they have been. I am pretty sure they just keep extending it as any tyrant would. It would be super nice if it went away in January maybe Colombia would follow so I could visit my husband’s family with the baby. 
 

Thank  you

Thanks everyone for your responses. I'm aware that currently entering the US is not even possible without the vax for foreign nationals. This however, will not remain in place forever. There are currently around 130 countries on the planet that don't have any restrictions anymore. A few months, that's it. 

 

To the person who mentioned this could get political, I don't see how. This is about personal choices and beliefs. 

 

Also "you are willing to risk your partner's arrival to the States"... better than risking anyone's personal beliefs or even their life. So yes, definitely. We have a lawyer in place that we would hire if needed. The question is just if we would even need him, if panel physicians are told the covid vax is not mandatory for K-Visa applicants. 

 

We are definitely willing to move to an entirely different country over this, if needed. Really just trying to explore all our options first. Hence the question if anyone who was planning on filing an i-601 didn't end up needing it.

Have you found any answers? I filed the I-601 waiver of inadmissibility for my husband pre covid jab for the other injections required and it was approved. I am trying to help someone in a similar situation but it’s different now. Have you heard of anyone filing with success with this new added shot?

You just need to wait until after January when the shot requirement is going away. For AOS - include the waiver for shots.

 

And there's nothing wrong if you and your future spouse do not want to take covid (or any other) shots. That's what waivers are for. 

You believe the requirement will go away In January?

Is the covid jab required for residents to re-enter the country? My husband has his greencard and would like to visit home.  I read that it is not required for residents and citizens.  Can anyone confirm this?  Thank you!

So after a year we finally have the greencard interview for next week. On the list of items to bring is form i-693 "if necessary."  Do we really need this- I feel like he had to present medical info when he came into the country?  Do we have to run to a doctors to get this info?  Thank you.

I am filing for my husband EAD renewal.  We have been waiting for the interview to be scheduled since February 21, 2020.  I am having a hard time understanding what exactly I need to send it along with form i-765.  I need to send in a check? So confused halllp.

I feel that frustration after waiting for over 350 days to get an update after my rfe was received . I hope you get an update soon. 

 

But when your ead expires, you can apply for ead renewal and they will automatically extend the old ead for 180 days. 

Thank you for the info 

280 days waiting since we received the update that our case was ready for an interview. I tried calling but it’s impossible to talk to anyone that isn’t a robot. Any tips? Thank you. I am afraid his work permit will expire before he gets the greencard.

How come you aren’t able to drive?

We went to the dmv and they couldn’t Do anything because they said his visa was expired. Even though I had our marriage certificate. It’s just like this in NJ. They said with an I 551 or whatever. Which is the work or travel thing. Our case just updated approved for those. Yes 

This is taking for f'ing everrrrrrrr.  Like what in the hell is someone supposed to do for a year- unable to work, drive, visit home......nothing.  Incredible.  We have spent too much money on this mierda for it to be like this.

Hello everyone,  I am about to mail my AOS and have a bunch of concerns.

-My 90 days is up 9/4 and I am afraid I won't have it sent by then- I feel like this is okay?

-My husband who I love so much gave his only original of his birth certificate at the POE a the airport- I am hoping the photo he has of it will serve?

-Lastly what is form DS-3025 and why don't I have one?  We have a Vaccination Documentation Worksheet and a c.d. lol I don't understand what I have to send for the medical info considering he just had a exam before coming here

If any one could help me I would greatly appreciate it!!

Time for her to go back to her country and re-file for i-130 or stay here and file for i-130 and restart process.   You will miss this deadline.

what?!?! @Greenbaum is this true?

So our 90 days is up 9/4.  We got married last week and I need to send in for the adjustment of status.  I am worried that I waited too long.  I need to get his birth certificate translated still- does it need to be notarized? thanks

Guides from the blue ribbon at the top of this page. 

Following the guide, I began to fill out the Application for a social Security card.  I am a little confused though about the evidence of identity listed in the directions as he does not have any of those U.S documents.  I imagine his passport is enough? Even thought the directions for the application state that they prefer U.S. documents. 

Can someone guide me to maybe a forum of what needs to be done after lover in in U.S?

@Greenbaum thank you but it is still not working😢 

Is there a trick to checking the CEAC website because I am having a really hard time and I truly just want to book my fiance's flight already.

Hola a todos, estoy un poco confundido, de nuevo, pagué una cuota cuando hice la entrevista y sé que vamos a tener que pagar el examen médico. Mi pregunta es si vamos a tener que pagar algo nuevamente el día de la entrevista? Gracias

La cita de las huellas y la foto , siempre es un día antes de la entrevista .

Gracias.  Piensas que esta bien que el mio es una semana antes?

¿Alguien sabe si la cita de ASC. debe pasar un par de días antes de la entrevista, el mismo dia o que? 

I do not know it this is a question for my sub forum but does anyone know if the ASC apt. should be a couple days before the Consular section apt. or does it not matter?

Hello,

I have been trying to add my picture for the DS-160 yesterday and today. But it still write the same error "missing parameter".

Any ideas how to skip this step and bring them a picture directly?

Thank you,

I wasted so much of my life trying to upload the picture.  It would not let me. I tried a week later and it accepted the exact photo that it told me was incorrectly sized
