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.

Your Davis immigration physical questions, answered

Not fully — USCIS requires an in-person exam. Davis applicants can, however, start with a virtual pre-consult so the in-person visit is short and well-prepared.
Each applicant requires a separate exam and sealed form regardless of age. Booking the family in one visit is usually possible and saves trips.
You may bring a translator, and it is worth asking about in-house language support: several practices serving Yolo County have multilingual teams.
The civil surgeon documents any required follow-up on Form I-693 and walks you through next steps. The form is only finalized once requirements are met.
A few offices around Davis take walk-ins, but most work by appointment. Booking ahead avoids wasted trips, especially in busy filing periods.
The civil surgeon can order titers — blood tests that check your immunity — or give the required vaccines again if records cannot be found. Mention this when booking so the office can allow extra time.
