"Pregnancy and Examination
There are many Adjustment of Status applicants who are either trying for pregnancy or the wife is already pregnant. If that is the case, chest X-ray for the TB test is not allowed, even if the skin test comes out to be positive. Also vaccines like MMR can't be given. This applies to both husband and wife. In that the doctor would just give the allowed vaccines and he/she may ask that take other vaccines/ take chest x-ray after the baby is delivered. They will mostly give vaccines like tetanus, DPT only after consulting the wife's gynecologist. Also vaccines like Polio would not be necessary for adults as it would not be appropriate age to give that vaccine. The doctor might also want to get the results from the person's gynecologist tests such as blood work etc. so that they wouldn't be necessary again."

GCPlan said:Hi,
My wife could not take vaccination at the time of filing 485 because she was pregnant. Should we take that now and send some kind of a letter stating so? Can anybody please let me know the procedure for this? Do we have to go through lawyer?
thanks a bunch.
That's possible. The doctor just writes that due to pregnancy xxx things cannot be done at this time. That's why after pregnany you have to be proactive and send a rejoinder or something. This is my understanding. How to do it is my question. My lawyer is a, lets just say, crook. So please help.
