USCIS COVID-19 Vaccine Waiver, Immigration Medical Requirements
Effective January 22, 2025, USCIS has waived the COVID-19 vaccination requirement for applicants seeking adjustment of status to lawful permanent residency. This policy change means the Form I-693 medical examination no longer requires proof of COVID-19 vaccination. The move resolves a significant hurdle for many legal immigrants who had previously faced potential denial based on their vaccination status.
