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 College Township applicants

Many providers serving College Township and Centre County speak languages beyond English, commonly including Spanish, Chinese, Korean, so you can complete your exam in a language you are comfortable with.
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.
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.
There is nothing to prepare physically — no fasting, no stopping medications. Just arrive with your documents and medication list.
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.
Requirements vary by age under CDC-based rules; common ones include MMR, Tdap, and flu in season. Your civil surgeon reviews your records and identifies exactly what you still need.
