VACCINATION REQUIREMENTS FOR A FOREIGN ADOPTED CHILD
Statement for Parent(s): Section 212(a)(1)(A)(ii) of the Immigration and Nationality Act requires that any person who
seeks admission as an immigrant, or adjustment of status to the status of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent
residence, shall present documentation of having received vaccination against vaccine-preventable diseases,
specifically: mumps, measles, rubella, polio, tetanus and diphtheria toxoids, pertussis, influenza type B, hepatitis B,
varicella and pneumoccocal. This section exempts from the immunization requirement a child who:
(i) is 10 years of age or younger;
(ii) is described in Sections F or G of sections 101(b)(1), and
(iii) is seeking an immigrant visa as an immediate relative under section 201(b),
provided that the adoptive parent or prospective adoptive parent, prior to the child's admission, executes an affidavit
stating that the parent is aware of the provisions of subparagraph (A)(ii) and will ensure that, within 30 days of the
child's admission, or at the earliest time that is medically appropriate, the child will receive the vaccinations identified in
such subparagraph.
