Why Is a Form I-693 Immigration Medical Exam Required?

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) mandates that Green Card and Adjustment-of-Status applicants submit a completed Form I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, to confirm they are free from communicable diseases of public health significance.[USCIS Policy Manual]

The exam must be performed by a USCIS-designated civil surgeon. During the visit, the civil surgeon verifies required age-appropriate vaccines per CDC Technical Instructions, screens for tuberculosis and sexually transmitted infections, and certifies the results on Form I-693. Submitting a sealed I-693 with your I-485 avoids costly Request-For-Evidence (RFE) delays and keeps your Green Card timeline on track.
