USCIS is still requiring all LEGAL greencard applicants to get the covid jab: https://www.cdc.gov/immigrantrefugeehealth/panel-physicians/vaccinations.html#covid-19-vaccination
This is ALL immigrants changing their status inside the United States, and in my case it's blocking my wife's IR1 immigration visa. I have hired people to look into legal options, and the advice I have been given is there is nothing that I can do as far as a waiver goes, because it's completely up to the officer to grant a waiver, and if we get denied there is both no way to challenge the denial in court AND it would prevent us from getting a non-immigration immigration visa having a rejection on her file.
I am a US citizen and my family is BANNED from the United States because of on-going federal vaccine mandates.
This is concerning, my Canadian wife is in the process of her green card renewal right this moment. The need for Vax hasn't come up at all from her lawyer nor USCIS. Shes... I hear.. very close to getting approved, we may or may not need a interview (should find out in a couple weeks now).
We've been in this renewal process for 2.5 years. I will let you know what happens in our case... if they require it, etc.
