Health-Related Waiver
When the medical exam raises a flag — vaccination, communicable disease, and mental health grounds.
Overview
Health-related inadmissibility arises from the immigration medical exam: communicable diseases, missing vaccinations, or physical or mental disorders with associated harmful behavior. Each has a remedy — vaccination waivers for religious or moral objections, I-601 waivers for disease grounds, and structured evidence for mental-health findings.
Who May Qualify
- A Class A medical finding or vaccination gap
- Disease waivers: qualifying family relationships and terms of admission
- Vaccination waivers: sincere religious or moral objection to all vaccines
How We Help
- Civil surgeon and panel physician coordination
- I-601 health-ground waiver filings
