Just got mmr booster for immigration purposes-- found records that i was immune already but got the shot anyway. is this bad? will i get mumps?

No: Repeating the vaccine just reminds your system to be vigilant & fight off those germs if exposed. It would not put you at any extra risk of any disease.
