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 Mascotte immigration physical questions, answered

What if the exam finds something that needs more testing?

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.

Do my kids need their own immigration physical?

Each applicant requires a separate exam and sealed form regardless of age. Booking the family in one visit is usually possible and saves trips.

What should I budget for the exam in Mascotte?

The base fee typically runs $200 to $500 around Mascotte, plus $0 to $300 or more for vaccines, TB testing and record retrieval depending on your immunization history.

Are missing vaccination records a problem?

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.

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

Policies vary by practice. Some offices accept limited walk-ins, but scheduling ahead is recommended, especially during peak filing seasons.

What does the TB screening involve?

Applicants generally take an IGRA blood test for tuberculosis. A positive result leads to follow-up, typically a chest X-ray, before the form can be completed.
