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.

Common questions from Madison applicants

Each applicant requires a separate exam and sealed form regardless of age. Booking the family in one visit is usually possible and saves trips.
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.
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.
Around Madison, the exam itself usually costs $200–$500. Vaccines, titers, and TB testing are billed on top, so incomplete records raise the total.
You submit it yourself: include the unopened envelope with your USCIS filing, or bring it to your interview if instructed. The civil surgeon does not mail it for you.
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.
