Congratulations on your approval! you waited ~ 15 months before filing the writ of mandamus, is this a limit of some sort before your can file it?
 
Hi, I hope you are doing well
I have a question about the medical exams, I asked my attorney to give me information about the medical exams before my trip, but he said
this is not mandatory. I have to file for my green card on May 18, and my plan is visit my family on May 21. I wanted to know when should I do a medical exam, I paid a lot of money to my attorney for applying for a green card, so I thought he should help me with the I-693 form, but he said it's not necessary for now

I found this information from Google
I'm confused which one is better send it with I_485 or after approve the I-485


Can I submit my I-485 without Form I-693, assuming I am eligible to apply? A: USCIS does not require the Form I-693 to be submitted at the same time as the initial I-485 filing, but a completed Form I-693 must be submitted before USCIS can approve the I-485 application.Dec 14, 2021

They say it’s best if you do it after 12 months or more of waiting because that’s what’s considered “unreasonable amount of time” for the government agencies to do their job.

You can send it with the I-485 or you can wait for them to send you a letter stating the form I-693 is missing so you can do it then. I guess is better to wait for USCIS to send you the notification this form is missing that way you are not risking spending more money, since this form is valid for 2 years once the physician signed, meaning if USCIS decided to process your case in 3 years, for now, your form is no longer valid and you will have to go to the physician again and spend more money .

Right now anyone applying for GC it takes 5-7 months at max and it’s better and will save her time to send it with i-485 from the start! RFE always delaying the cases 1-2 months at least
 
Ho everyone
Do you know about vaccinations part
Should I add a history of my old vaccinations or I should re do them again just for that paper?
 
If you are filling I-693, Doctor’s office will handle those parts. They requested from me all records for covid19, varicella, tdap, mmr and influenza.

You need to fill the first and second page of the form. On top Name and A number all pages. See the doctor’s office. They will tell you the process. If you have vaccine record you add that record as well. Depending on your records they will ask you to take shots.

My process was almost a week.

Thank you so much
Sorry one more question
