@Mahesh Pokhrel hey when you got RFE for medical, did the letter mentioned that polio vaccine is mandatory. if yes, on what section did your civil surgeon add that information because the I-693 form that I am checking on USCIS page doesn’t have polio vaccine listed under part 10. vaccination record.

@blue luck Once you get the polio vaccine, the surgeon will sign the vaccination part. Otherwise he will ask you to get it first. In the RFE letter it was clearly mentioned specifically for polio vaccine.

@Mahesh Pokhrel yes I got it as soon as I read the RFE. I was just wondering in which section of I-693 form did the surgeon record it’s information because I did not see polio listed under vaccination record section. USCIS clearly have asked for it so I don’t want that information to be missed out.

@blue luck it was in part 10. Vaccination record and mentioned as IPV. this should be checked if you got polio vaccine.

@Mahesh Pokhrel did you get your card in Mail yet ? how long did it take for you get mail in card once aaproved?

@Sujan Kharel not yet. But I have got the tracking number for the card they mailed me and is on the way. I would say one week of window between the approval and Card receipt.

@Mahesh Pokhrel which location did you send your RFE response and how long did it take for USCIS to update on your case?
