K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresVaccinations in China
Does anyone have experience with getting vaccinations in China - as they are mandatory for CR1 immigrant visa petitions? Since my wife is < 25 years old, we'll need to get 4 mandatory shots. (Surprisingly she tells me she doesn't have any vaccination record because China didn't have that "back in the day.")

On CDC's PDF, I noticed that for HPV and Varicella both had waiting times (usually 1 month or more) between doses (as opposed to getting a one-time dose). Would it be possible to get the first dose in China and then get subsequent doses in the US? Would that fly with the people conducting the medical exam or with the interviewing officer at the Consulate? If not, does that mean we'd have push back our interview date until she receives all doses (which would be slightly ridiculous)? Also I would ideally be able to check if my local township or county in the US gives free vaccinations so we could save money on the subsequent doses.

Thanks.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresMarrying outside US but still coming in K-1 Visa - Possible?

I am a US citizen and my fiance isn't. I have applied for K-1 Fiance visa. Her family wants the wedding to take place in their home country. If we get married in her home country can I still bring her to the US under K-1 Fiance visa without doing the paperwork for a marriage certificate in her home country?


If you hold a wedding banquet in your fiance's home country and do not register your marriage with the authorities, then legally you are not married because you two do not have a marriage certificate. But if you think about it, it would be more of an engagement party than a wedding banquet...
