Applicants for residency status are required to provide the USCIS examining physician with evidence of immunizations for a variety of illnesses. The most common vaccines being measles, mumps, rubella (MMR); tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (T-dap); varicella (chicken pox). Other vaccines may be added by the doctor if indicated. These are carried by Global Health Services, Inc. as well as the others listed below under common vaccines.

If the physician determines that an applicant lacks the required immunizations, he/she will not be medically cleared for approval of adjustment of status and will need to obtain these immunizations before continuing the process.

Further information and updates on required vaccines are available at these websites:
