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.

Document review

We check your ID, vaccination records, and USCIS paperwork.

Benicia applicants ask: Form I-693 FAQ

What should I budget for the exam in Benicia?

Budget $200 to $500 for the base exam near Benicia. Your final total depends mostly on which vaccines and tests you still need — that can add $300 or more.

How long should I plan for the exam in Benicia?

The appointment itself usually runs half an hour to an hour — longer only if vaccines or additional testing are needed on the day.

What if the exam finds something that needs more testing?

Follow-up items such as TB confirmation are recorded on the form, and the doctor explains what happens next. Sealing waits until everything required is complete.

Can I do a virtual green card medical exam in Benicia?

You can start with a virtual pre-consult to prepare your documents and understand the process, but a designated civil surgeon must still examine you in person and physically sign Form I-693.

Does the doctor send my form to USCIS?

Keep the envelope sealed and submit it according to your case instructions — with the application package or at the interview. An opened envelope is rejected.

Will I need a blood test for TB?

Expect a blood test for TB as part of the exam. Most results are clear; a positive simply triggers a follow-up step like a chest X-ray before sealing.
