Immunization Information

 

Immunization Forms

A valid GA 3231 form is required for school attendance. 3231 forms should be uploaded to Magnus Health. Once the form expires, you will receive an email reminder that your child is due for a vaccination. Please provide a new 3231 form to the nurse any time your child receives new vaccinations.

Out of state immunization forms are not accepted. If you have relocated from outside of Georgia, please visit a local pediatrician or the local health department to have your child’s immunizations transferred to the Georgia GRITS system. They will be able to provide you with a 3231 form at that time. 

Exemptions

  • Religious Exemption: For a child to be exempt from immunizations on religious grounds, the parent or guardian must furnish the school/childcare facility with a notarized Affidavit of Religious Objection to Immunization (DPH Form 2208).  This Affidavit of Religious Objection to Immunization form should be filed instead of the Georgia Immunization Certificate (Form 3231). The affidavit does not expire.

  • Medical exemption:  Medical exemptions are used only when a child has a medical condition that keeps him from being able to receive a specific vaccine(s), not all vaccines. A medical exemption must be marked on the Georgia Immunization Certificate (Form 3231). A letter from a physician, Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) or physician assistant (PA) attached to the certificate will not be accepted as a medical exemption. It must be marked on the certificate. – A physician, APRN or PA must re-evaluate the need for a medical exemption at least once each year and issue a new certificate of immunization at that time. The date of expiration on the section of the certificate marked “medical exemption” should be one year from the date of issue and never be longer than one year.
