Will missing a vaccination before the US visa medical examination result in an interview refusal?
One of the most asked questions before the medical examination day is:
"If I haven't been vaccinated enough, will I fail the interview?"
In fact, these are two different processes and many people still misunderstand.

Have.
For most immigration applications, applicants need to meet vaccination requirements as prescribed by US health authorities.

* Regulations are applicable at the time of examination.

What if I haven't had enough injections?
In many cases, the health facility will:
* Check vaccination records.
* Identify missing stitches.
* Instruct or perform additional injections as prescribed.
This does not mean the application is rejected.

Should I get vaccinated myself first?
If you have complete vaccination records, you should bring them with you.
Do not arbitrarily inject vaccines without instructions, because it can:
* Injecting the wrong type.
* Injection at the wrong time.
* Must be re-injected at the request of a medical examiner.

What if I lose my vaccination book?
You should still:
* Notify the medical facility.
