Problems with the physical examination for U.S. green cards

What visa did you come to the United States on? Is it CR1? I first got a temporary green card and then applied for a permanent green card after one year and nine months. When I applied for a green card for the first time, I was required to have a physical examination, but when I applied for a permanent one for the second time, I did not need another physical examination.

To put it bluntly, the physical examination mainly consists of vaccinations and blood draws. As for the physical examination, it is actually very general. With or without examination, it is the same. Because China has already checked it for you when you applied for a visa. I remember that at that time, I had three needle holes in my left arm and two needle holes in my right arm (on the same day). After the vaccine, I was reluctant to stretch out my hand. Because some vaccines are painful. Also, if you are between 18 and 26 years old, you also need to take a special vaccine. I forgot the name, but it seems to prevent some kind of cervical cancer. One injection costs more than a hundred dollars, and one shot requires three injections.

On the website of the Immigration Bureau, there will be some designated clinics or hospitals in your local area that can administer these vaccines. You can call to inquire about the prices one by one. I live in VA, so I don't know the prices there. It's hard to say the prices because some vaccines can't be given in one shot, and some require several weeks before the next shot can be given. All in all, it costs several hundred dollars.

If you want to take advantage of this physical examination to check your health, I’m afraid it’s unlikely.
