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.

Frequently asked in Chino Hills

Does a follow-up finding delay my form?

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.

Why can't any doctor sign Form I-693?

A civil surgeon is a doctor specifically designated by USCIS to perform immigration medical exams and complete Form I-693. Your regular doctor cannot sign this form unless they hold that same designation.

Can I do a virtual green card medical exam in Chino Hills?

Not fully — USCIS requires an in-person exam. Chino Hills applicants can, however, start with a virtual pre-consult so the in-person visit is short and well-prepared.

Do I need to stop eating or taking medication beforehand?

You can eat, drink, and take medications as usual. The only preparation that matters is having your documents and records ready.

Can I use my insurance for the exam?

Usually not for the exam itself — it is not considered medical treatment — but vaccine costs are sometimes covered. Ask your insurer and confirm what the office can bill.

How long do I have to submit the sealed form?

Validity rules have changed over time — the form is valid for a defined period from the civil surgeon’s signature. Check the current USCIS policy for your filing category before submitting.
