| VACCINATION REQUIREMENTS | Recent changes to the US immigration law now require
immigrant visa applicants to obtain certain vaccinations which are
listed below prior to the issuance of an immigrant visa.
-- mumps
-- measles
-- rubella
-- polio
-- tetanus and diphtheria toxoids
-- pertussis
-- influenza type b (Hib)
-- hepatitis B
-- varicella
-- pneumococcal and
-- influenza.
To avoid delay in processing it is advised that all immigrant visa
applicants should have their vaccination records available for the
panel physician’s during medical examination. If you don’t have these
reports who may be asked to undergo the tests by the panel physicians.
Only a physician can determine which of the listed vaccinations are
medically appropriate for you, given your age, medical history and
current medical condition.
