    Medical exam inquiry

    in Canada

    Posted

    Hihi! I am a Filipino citizen who held Canadian residency during a K1 application. I just followed the immunization requirements from the Panel Physician list in Toronto (http://panelphysicians.com/Pages/Immunizations.htm). I think the US vaccination requirements are the same for most countries, except that the US Consulates in Canada require that you complete most of them before granting you your visa.

    The USCIS also list the US vaccination requirements (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=b9f89aca94cf2110VgnVCM1000004718190aRCRD&vgnextchannel=95fc9c997f710110VgnVCM1000000ecd190aRCRD) which are basically what is in that earlier website. Some of them are age-specific.

    I would call the Panel Physician office though just to make sure the 2008 requirements have not changed yet.

    Goodluck!

    I am so grateful that there is a forum like this...It is such a relief esp that I am not in my home country .

    Krikit, i will do the same thing as what you did. Many Thanks!

    As you are in Canada legally you can DCF - say you have a study visa, as long as it is good for 6 months and can prove you have been in Canada for an extended period of time - you can DCF here.

    My husband is the USC, I'm here in Canada as a foreign worker.

    You just need documentation of your vaccinations through your life.

    If you can't get a hold of them, you can get a titer test done to show what you have immunity to. If you don't have immunity to ones listed in your age group on the doctor's website, you'll have to get vaccinated for them and keep record of those.

    Thanks a lot for the prompt reply..i do appreciate it...i am now reading the panelphysicians site.

    I hope everyone had a Christmas blast with their loved ones!!!!

    I have some questions for medical exams. I am not a Canadian. I have been here in Canada as a foreign worker. Any input will be greatly appreciated.

    What are the vaccinations/records that are necessary during the medical exams? I really do not know what to do if in case I would be asked for any medical records because since I arrived in here, I visited a doctor's office once (thank God) . Back home, I can't remember anymore what were the vaccinations that i went through and there were no records on them.

    Have a Prosperous and Blessed 2010 to all!!!!

    IR1 / CR1 - Montreal Timeline to Interview

    I feel bad for those of you still waiting. Looking at the time frames, I would think that no one will wait longer than around 155 days from date complete to interview since that seems to be the longest wait time. Even though that is a ridiculously long time, I think LGG should get an interview no later than mid January.

    Either way, I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for all of you!

    Good luck and God bless for your interview,Dalene.

    Filing where married?

    in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    K3 is interviewed where the marriage took place. CR1 is in beneficiaries home country.

    If this makes a difference, my spouse has been residing in the country where the marriage happened but may have to return to his home country.

    Ok, now you supply more information. For the CR1 it would be in the country of legal residence, or the home country if they return to the home country. On the I-130 you will indicate their address abroad along with where they apply for the visa. Check out the example form here on VJ: http://www.visajourney.com/examples/INS-Form-I-130.pdf

    I read in the instructions that NVC will send your petition to the country where the marriage took place for an interview for a K3 visa. However if your marriage took place in the US, then the petition is sent to the country of your spouses citizenship for the interview.

    For CR1 visas, the petition will be sent to the appropriate consulate depending on your spouses residency status in the country he/she is living in. If the spouse meets the residency requirement they may interview in the country of residence. However I have read instances where individuals were allowed to interview at a consulate in the country where they are currently living but the petition was then sent to the spouses country of citizenship in order for the visa to be issued. I suspect that legal residency status may have been an issue in those instances.

    Thanks-- that is very useful. I think the concern will come down to residency requirement. My spouse lost his residency card and has petitioned to have it replaced but he has been told his record cannot be located. It has been many years since he first moved there. We are looking at the option of re-applying for the residency (which seems silly as he plans to move to the US), but we also might have to consider having him go back to his country of citizenship (UK) to finish the proceedings from there.

    If you reapply for residency in the country he is currently living in, your spouse will need to live there for six months after the legal residency is granted before being allowed to interview there and be granted a visa there.

    We were potentially facing the same situation as you are...except in Italy.

    I am sorry, but I did not get it. The husband is a USC and the wife is a foreign worker in Canada. The wife has to go back to her home country because she is no longer legal to stay in Canada. What will happen to their CR1 application?
