Hello, can anyone enlighten me about immunization requirment for the IV interview

It would be part of your medical so the medical facility they tell you to go to will list the immunizations you need. It'll be covered by the medicals fees you pay.

Taal17:
Attend pls, you can not reschedule this isn't non immigrant visa
The interview will go on as usual, they would just not issue the visa because of the ban. Once the ban is called off the applicant will be called back to submit passport or you contact the embassy that you were interviewed and the ban has been lifted.

gracey22:
Is this what they have been with those who were interviewed after the ban?

Boss quick one if you are Nigerian and you have a second passport like Canada will you be given the EB2 visa..I know someone who got the green card eb3 Nigerian but got Canadian Passport.

boundlessjoy:
Hi everyone, please I have a quick question. Does someone who has a law degree (LL.B) which is a JD equivalent qualify for EB2 as an advanced degree holder? Does a lawyer need a masters degree to show advanced degree?
Thank you.

Babbyad:
A very tricky situation cos some credential evaluators classify an LL.B as equivalent to a U.S. JD (advanced degree)
while others may classify it as just a bachelor’s degree...
But remember that your five years of professional experience can be equivalent to your advanced degree... In that way, it will cover for the advanced degree gap.

What can I improve before considering applying?

I would really appreciate honest feedback from anyone. Thank you
