Evidence of COVID-19 vaccinations are no longer need

ALERT:  On Jan. 22, 2025, USCIS announced that as of Jan. 20, 2025, officers would no longer issue any Requests for Evidence (RFEs) or Notices of Intent to Deny (NOIDs) related to the COVID-19 vaccination. On March 11, 2025, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) updated their Technical Instructions for Civil Surgeons to remove the COVID-19 vaccination from the list of required vaccinations for aliens seeking admission as immigrants. Therefore, documentation of having completed the COVID-19 vaccination is not required for any immigration medical examinations associated with adjustment applications pending on or after Jan. 20, 2025. Until USCIS updates Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, civil surgeons can either cross out the COVID-19 section or write “N/A,” and if the alien meets all the vaccination requirements, mark “Applicant completed vaccination requirements or may be eligible for blanket waivers as indicated above.”
