U.S. Immigration – Basic Requirements

Unlike many other countries in the world, the United States is extremely selective of newcomers. Whether you are applying for U.S. immigration or a U.S. visa, your admissibility will be assessed based on personal circumstances and the circumstances of your accompanying family members and/or dependents. There are some basic requirements which every person must meet in order to apply for U.S. immigration. Select one of the following links to read some basic information and requirements for U.S. immigration.

United States immigration law requires that all immigrant visa applicants receive vaccinations before they may obtain their immigrant visa. Medical examinations must be conducted by panel physicians. All immigrant visa applicants must have their vaccination records available to be reviewed by the panel physician at the time of their medical examination. You may be able to get a copy of your immunization record from your health care provider. If you cannot obtain a copy of your vaccination record, the panel physician may assist you in determining which of the vaccinations you need. You must have proof that you have received all of the following vaccinations (or that it is medically inappropriate for you to receive one or more of them):

  • Hepatitis A
  • Hepatitis B
  • Influenza
  • Influenza type b (Hib)
  • Measles
  • Meningococcal
  • Mumps
  • Pneumococcal
  • Pertussis
  • Polio
  • Rotavirus
  • Rubella
  • Tetanus and diphtheria toxoids
  • Varicella

Please note that all medical examinations must be given by a panel physician, a medical professional who is appointed by the U.S. Embassy or Consulate to provide examinations as required by the CDC and USCIS. Medical examinations given by overseas doctors who are not appointed by the local U.S. Consulate or Embassy will not be recognized for the purpose of immigration.

You will be required to submit photographs when applying for U.S. immigration. If you did not submit photographs as per the photograph requirements along with your U.S. immigration application, you may take your photographs with you to your U.S. immigration interview. You will need to provide two (2) identical color photographs which meet the size specifications and other requirements specified by the USCIS.

All U.S. immigration applicants over the age of 16 are required to submit police certificates.

You must obtain police certificates from any country in which you have lived for over 6 months since the age of 16 or any country in which you have been arrested for any reason at any age. Each police certificate must cover the entire period of your residence, be issued by the appropriate police authority, and include all arrests along with the reason for each arrest and disposition of each recorded case.

To find out how to obtain a police certificate from your country, follow this link and select your country from the drop-down at the top of the page. This page will provide you with all the information regarding documents, fees and other important information specific to your country. Scroll down the page to determine how you can obtain the police clearance for that country.

Applications for U.S. immigration require a government application fee to be paid by the applicant. The amount of this application fee varies depending on the U.S. immigration program for which you are applying. Contact our office to discuss the government application fees and other information regarding your application for U.S. immigration.

Immigrants to the United States will be required to undergo an immigrant interview prior to issuance of their U.S. immigrant visa. You will receive notification that your interview has been scheduled and will need to be prepared with all of the necessary documentation. When you receive your notice, make sure to pay careful attention to the date, time and location of your immigrant visa interview.
