Finally Green!!! Alhamdulillah!!!
I attended my interview on May 7th, and it went very smoothly. The interviewer was very kind to both me and my attorney. The interview lasted about an hour and a half and consisted mostly of yes and no questions. She asked about my job and the addresses I have lived at since submitting my application. After the interview, she mentioned that she might need me to resend my medical examination because a vaccination was missing due to an update on the new form. That same day, I got the update, went back to the civil surgeon, got the polio vaccination, and they updated my medical exam form. I sent the updated form last Friday, and it was received on Monday. By Tuesday, the update that RFE was received was processed, and today I received my approval!

@Mrkvica M. no they asked 7,8 yes no questions on end of interview but they went through some more details about vawa. even i had my attorney with me.
M
Mrkvica M.May 24, 2024
@L s that's weird because they are not allowed to ask about vawa

Mrkvica M.May 24, 2024
@Ola Ola thank you for your help!!

Mrkvica M.May 24, 2024
@F A polio is vaccine that kids usually get. are you sure that you didn't get it as a kid? I don't know what letter they use for it
M
Mrkvica M.May 24, 2024
@F A we have sent them updated form.

@Ola Ola thanks so much, this is my first time of hearing about it, that’s why it’s good to share Information here so others can learn. Atleast I have an idea what it could be.
F AMay 24, 2024
@Mrkvica M. I think they are coming up with new surprises, from calling most people for interview after vawa, to sending more than one rfe after vawa approval to 485 interview lasting for hours….. I think we can’t just beat them to their game 😀😀😀I did get polio vaccine as a kid but I don’t have the record, will just go get another one if that’s what they are asking. I thought polio was for kids only though
M
Mrkvica M.May 24, 2024
@F A you are right. I also read that only kids can get polio. oh boy, you are right in everything what you've said and i'll start freaking out now 😭🤪🥶🥶🫨😵‍💫
F AMay 24, 2024
@K h thank you 🙏
F AMay 24, 2024
@Mrkvica M. remember we don’t freak out, we stay positive
M
Mrkvica M.May 24, 2024
@F A can we freak out just in a positive way? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🫣🫣🫣

@Mrkvica M. got you, that’s allowed 😀😀

just a quick one please, can anyone that has had their vaccinations, please can you list the ones you did. thsnk you for your speedy response.
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@dee bee are you asking for the ones that we got in USA or the ones we got in out home country
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@F A my case is in field office. It looks like I'll have interview... I think that NBC waives interviews. Or maybe I'm wrong
d
dee beeMay 29, 2024
I meant here in the state. country of concern, Nigeria @Mrkvica M.
F AMay 29, 2024
@Mrkvica M. did you call them? How did you get to know where your case is? I’m not sure where mine is. it’s still showing Vermont center on lawfully
F AMay 29, 2024
@dee bee I’m also Nigerian, I did my medicals sometimes in April 2024 and here are the shots I got, MMR, TDAP and Hep B. I learnt uscis is requesting for Polio now. so maybe 4 of them but you can confirm from your surgeon when you get there and remember to check the uscis website for approved surgeon in your area
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@dee bee i received covid shot, tetanus and hep B here
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@F A i called them and they told me. Not sure if that means i will def have interview. what happened with your RFE?
F AMay 29, 2024
@Mrkvica M. let’s see how that goes. I’m yet to get the rfe but will remind my lawyer to be on the look out for it. I called uscis, was told they don’t have access to my case that it’s coming up blank at their end. I called their 8003755283. I think they usually don’t have access to Vermont cases.
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@F A wow, this is so weird. both of us thought you'll get it by end of this week
F AMay 29, 2024
@Mrkvica M. I just spoke with my lawyer. He got the mail, said he doesn’t understand what they are asking, he mentioned something in the line of affidavit of support which is weird for a vawa case. He’s saying we’ll have to schedule an info pass to go to their office. From my understanding, I know we don’t need affidavit of support for vawa. don’t know what uscis is doing.
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@F A oh wow, yeah, you don't need that vawa. could it be mistake?
F AMay 29, 2024
@Mrkvica M. I called uscis again to schedule an info pass, was told a senior officer will call back in 72hrs. I guess it’s a mistake but don’t know how to resolve it. Hopefully I can get a time to visit their office. The representative told me my case is at local office
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@F A probably when officer sees this, they will figure out that is a mistake. Nothing else comes to my mind. So, you are in my position as well. Your case is in field office like in mine. I thought that NBC can only waive interviews so not sure if we'll get interview soon
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@F A please keep phone next to you and answer to every phone call. You don't want to miss that phone call
F AMay 29, 2024
@Mrkvica M. I read somewhere online that nbc can recommend interview to be waived but field office have the final say. Let’s see what they are up to.
F AMay 29, 2024
@Mrkvica M. I sure will, can’t afford to miss it
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@F A oh, ok, that makes sense. NBC probably does the preparation and suggest and then it's up to officers to see if they agree with that decision or not. I'll keep my fingers crossed 🤞🤞🤞
F AMay 29, 2024
@Mrkvica M. Exactly!!!!
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@F A keep me posted with all the updates that you get!
F AMay 29, 2024
sure, I will. @Mrkvica M.
M
Mrkvica M.May 29, 2024
@F A thank you! And, hopefully, they will call you tomorrow just to clear out that mistake
F AMay 29, 2024
@Mrkvica M. my lawyer just sent me the rfe, they are asking me to send form I-864w. I’m going to put out a post now.

Hi!! First of all congratulation!! I received the same thing recently...RFE for missing Polio in I-693 vaccination records. I've asked my civil surgeon corrected the missing parts on the I-693 form and he did. He added the polio records on page 12 and a follow up dates on page 4 but he didn't add a new date next to his signature (page 5) or sign/initial next to the change on I-693 and I am just concern if that's enough for USCIS... Did your civil surgeon sign/initial next to the Polio updates info on page 12 or they also just add the information and kept the rest as it was? CONGRATS again!!! Thank you!!
O
Ola OlaJun 3, 2024
@Ang C Yes, all they need to do is to update the polio vaccine and out the new date but the rest can stay as they were before. I wish you all the best.
A
Ang CJun 3, 2024
@Ola Ola thanks for the reply!!! Where did they add the new date on your form? Only on page 4 ? Thank you so much for the info!!!

Ola OlaJun 5, 2024
