FAQ

  • The easiest way to write a refusal to vaccinate form is to use a template like this one. All you need to do is input your child’s information, your information (if you’re the parent or guardian), which vaccines are being refused, and have the document signed by a witness or the child’s health care provider.

  • A refusal to vaccinate form is used by a parent or guardian to formally document which vaccines are being refused for their child. These forms are often used in school settings and may be required or voluntarily supplied. 

  • The reason to use a refusal to vaccinate form is if a parent or guardian wishes to document their refusal of certain vaccines for their child formally. There are numerous reasons a parent or guardian might refuse certain vaccines for their child, including religious, philosophical, or health reasons. If someone wanted their child to receive any vaccines available, they would not want to use a refusal to vaccinate form.

  • The essential details to include on a refusal to vaccinate form are the child’s identifiable information, the parent/guardian’s information, the specific vaccines being refused, and the signatures. It’s also important to state the name of the medical professional advising the guardian and, if possible, their signature confirming that they’ve talked with the parent about the vaccines.

  • You can get your child’s immunization records from your state’s immunization information system (IIS). Contact the IIS in your state to request an official copy. You can also contact your child’s doctor or clinic since they should have records on file if they have vaccinated your child. It’s also possible that your child’s school may have their vaccination records on file. Schools often maintain records for a year or two after a student graduates or transfers.
