1. Who is required to appear for the Immigration Medical Examination?<\/b>
\nAny person who applies for adjustment of status in the United States, or applies for an immigrant visa at a US Consul office abroad must go through a medical examination which will also include a vaccination evaluation.<\/p>\n
Note: Only if the person is applying for registration based on his or her entry before the year 1972 and has stayed on continuously in the United States since that date is not required to go through a medical examination.<\/p>\n
2. What if the applicant is pregnant?<\/b>
\nIf the applicant is pregnant she is required to go through the medical examination but some parts of it may be postponed until after the baby is delivered. Any such concerns should be openly discussed with the USCIS Civil Surgeon or with the Panel Doctors to avoid any complications later.<\/p>\n
3. What if the vaccinations that need to be taken are against the applicant\u2019s religious beliefs or moral ethics?<\/b><\/p>\n
If the applicant\u2019s religious beliefs do not permit the administering of vaccines the applicant is still eligible for adjustment of status, provided he or she applies for a waiver of vaccinations that need to be taken.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
