i-130 got approved. i-485 is on Rfe for medical. im pregnant and cant take some vaccines, will this affect me?
So, im pregnant and cant take some vaccines that is needed like polio and Hepatitis B, if the civil surgeon writes a note stating im pregnant and can’t take the vaccine. can i get approved? or will it delay my application?

@abby bon are you sure you didn’t get hep b and polio as a kid? most of us had. they can do blood tests to prove your immunity and then you don’t need those vaccines.

If you are pregnant, the CDC's Technical Instructions direct the civil surgeon how to evaluate the vaccines you are able to receive during pregnancy. If the civil surgeon cannot safely administer a required vaccine, they will annotate the Form I-693 by marking the vaccine as contraindicated.

@w s 🇨🇦🇺🇸 I didn’t receive them. i did the blood work already. it states im not immune. and need the vaccine

@abby bon hey I was just wondering… what ever happened with your vaccines while pregnant? did you get to skip some?
abby bonJul 24, 2024
@w s 🇨🇦🇺🇸 yes, they waived them. thanks to the civil surgeon’s note, under the blanket waiver section. but the covid vaccine couldn’t be waived. i took that.

@abby bon I am on the same boat. I am pregnant and can’t get polio vaccine. Blood work came negative. would you mind sharing how was your process?
