Hi,
I applied for my wifes GC as a dependent on me. I already got my green card recently. But they had sent a RFE to redo all the medical examination for my wife. My wife was pregnant at the time of medical checkup in 1999. So she hasn\'t done the necessary X-Rays, vaccinations at that time. The skin test showed +ve for TB at that time. Currently they are running short of TD and MMR vaccines, So they gave her a letter stating the Nation wide shortage. The only vaccine she could get was Varicella.
I am thinking, probably she might have taken a few of these vaccines already in India (but I am not sure what vaccines she had). I might be able get the immunization records from India.
My question is, Do INS hold up issuing her green card when they have vaccine shortage? If soo, can the vaccine history from India be used to show that she had the immunization (We didn\'t provide this history at the time of her first medical checkup during pregnancy in 1999).
Any comments will be appreciated, Thanks.
