Stonecrest applicants ask: Form I-693 FAQ

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.

Can I just walk in to an office near Stonecrest?

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

How long do I have to submit the sealed form?

A sealed Form I-693 is valid for a set window from the signing date under current USCIS policy. Because these rules get updated, verify the latest guidance for your case.

What languages do USCIS civil surgeons near Stonecrest speak?

Many providers serving Stonecrest and DeKalb County speak languages beyond English, commonly including Spanish, Vietnamese, Korean, Amharic, so you can complete your exam in a language you are comfortable with.

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

USCIS designates specific physicians as civil surgeons for immigration exams. Form I-693 signed by anyone else is invalid — check the designation before booking.

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.
