Hello,

Please advise if anybody had similar issues. If for instance vaccination is contraindicated due to the pregnancy, etc but you still need to send the Medical Form anyway how to deal with this and how INS react on this?

Any advise please?

Thank you!
 
Hi Dronkin -

I didn't face your situation, but I remember reading something about vaccination exemptions if you are pregnant.

I think you may have confused form numbers - the medical form for the green card application is I-693. Is that what you are referring to?

I found this on page 5 of the instructions for I-693:

If you initially did not have documents proving you received all the required vaccines but later submit those documents, or if the civil surgeon certifies that it is not medically appropriate for you to have one or more of the missing vaccine(s), USCIS may grant you a waiver based on the civil surgeon's certification on the vaccination supplement.
*
HHS has determined that a vaccine is "not medically appropriate" if : (a) the vaccine is not recommended for your specific age group; (b) there is a medical reason why it would not be safe to have the vaccine (for example, allergies to eggs and yeast, pregnancy, hypersensitivity to prior vaccines, or other medical reasons);*or*(c) you are unable to complete the entire series of a required vaccine within a reasonable amount of time.


The civil surgeon that performs your medical exam should be able to answer your questions intelligently. Just make sure you find one registered with USCIS.

Hope this helps!
