Virtual immigration physical pre-consult

Not near a civil surgeon yet, or want to prepare before your appointment? Start online with Dapinder Kaur, FNP. Your virtual pre-consult walks you through the Form I-693 process, reviews your documents and vaccination records, and gets you ready — in English, Hindi, or Punjabi — so your in-person visit to seal the form is quick and stress-free.

A civil surgeon must still examine you in person and physically sign Form I-693. The virtual pre-consult prepares you; it does not replace the required exam.

Verified civil surgeons serving Stockbridge

Form I-693 can only be completed by a doctor USCIS has specifically designated as a civil surgeon. A regular family doctor in Henry County cannot sign this form unless they hold the USCIS designation — the Georgia civil surgeon directory lists doctors who do.

Compare price and language

Base fees near Stockbridge generally sit in the $200–$500 band typical for Georgia; vaccines, titers, and TB testing add to that. If English is not your first language, note that offices serving Henry County frequently offer Spanish, Vietnamese, Korean and Amharic. Applicants in Stockbridge often travel a short distance to Morrow for their exam.

Start online if you are not near a doctor

You can shorten the in-person visit by starting with a virtual pre-consult: your ID, vaccination records, and USCIS paperwork get checked online, and you arrive prepared.

Stockbridge applicants ask: Form I-693 FAQ

Does a follow-up finding delay my form?

If further testing or treatment is needed — for example a TB follow up — the USCIS civil surgeon notes it on Form I-693 and explains the next steps before the form is finalized.

Does the doctor send my form to USCIS?

The sealed envelope goes to USCIS with your application, or to your interview if USCIS asks you to bring it. Follow the filing instructions for your specific case — and never open it.

Can my family doctor do my immigration physical?

Only physicians holding the USCIS civil surgeon designation may complete Form I-693. A regular Henry County family doctor, however good, cannot sign it without that designation.

How long should I plan for the exam in Stockbridge?

Plan for 30–60 minutes in the office. Catch-up vaccines or a TB blood draw can extend the visit somewhat.

Do I need an appointment, or are walk-ins accepted?

Appointment policies differ office to office. Calling ahead is always the safer move — peak seasons can book out days in advance.

Can we book the exam as a family?

Every applicant, including children, needs their own Form I-693. Most offices can schedule family members back to back — mention it when booking.
