Frequently Asked Questions
What vaccines are required for U.S. immigration to Detroit?
Vaccine rules for immigration are set at the federal level by USCIS and the CDC, so Detroit follows the exact same nationwide requirements. Depending on your age and medical history, you must show vaccination for measles, mumps, rubella (MMR), polio, tetanus-diphtheria-pertussis (Tdap), varicella (chickenpox), Haemophilus influenzae type B for children, hepatitis A and B, rotavirus (for infants), meningococcal disease, pneumococcal disease, and seasonal influenza.

How should Detroit applicants prepare for their immigration interview or medical exam?
Preparation is key for both USCIS interviews and medical exams. For a USCIS interview (often at the Detroit field office or a U.S. embassy abroad), you should bring original documents such as passports, birth certificates, marriage certificates, and any evidence supporting your application. For the Form I-693 medical exam, bring a valid ID, vaccination records, and any relevant medical history or lab results. Our team provides each Detroit client with a personalized checklist to gather and organize these materials. We also offer coaching and support so you feel confident and ready for every step of the interview process.
What is consular processing and how does it work for Detroit residents?
Consular processing applies when an applicant lives outside the U.S. or is applying for an immigrant visa abroad. For example, if you are in Detroit and have a family petition approved by USCIS, the case will move to the National Visa Center and ultimately to a U.S. embassy or consulate in your home country for an interview. Our immigration attorneys handle the necessary paperwork and prepare you for each stage—from filing at the NVC to attending the overseas interview. This ensures that whether you live in Detroit or overseas, your visa case proceeds as smoothly as possible.
