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 Hillsboro

Can we book the exam as a family?

Every applicant, including children, needs their own Form I-693. Most offices can schedule family members back to back — mention it when booking.

What does the TB screening involve?

Expect a blood test for TB as part of the exam. Most results are clear; a positive simply triggers a follow-up step like a chest X-ray before sealing.

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

A few offices around Hillsboro take walk-ins, but most work by appointment. Booking ahead avoids wasted trips, especially in busy filing periods.

How long should I plan for the exam in Hillsboro?

The appointment itself usually runs half an hour to an hour — longer only if vaccines or additional testing are needed on the day.

What is the difference between a USCIS designated civil surgeon and my regular doctor?

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.

How much does an immigration medical exam cost in Hillsboro?

Budget $200 to $500 for the base exam near Hillsboro. Your final total depends mostly on which vaccines and tests you still need — that can add $300 or more.
