USCIS Waives COVID-19 Vaccination Requirement

Effective January 22, 2025, USCIS announced it will no longer require adjustment of status applicants to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination on Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record. USCIS will not issue Requests for Evidence (RFEs), Notices of Intent to Deny (NOIDs), or deny applications solely due to the absence of COVID-19 vaccination documentation. This policy applies to all adjustment of status cases moving forward.
