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.

Before you book in Jackson Township: quick answers

Only physicians holding the USCIS civil surgeon designation may complete Form I-693. A regular Monroe County family doctor, however good, cannot sign it without that designation.
USCIS generally treats a properly completed and sealed Form I-693 as valid for a set period from the date the designated civil surgeon signs it. Confirm current USCIS guidance for your specific filing.
The appointment itself usually runs half an hour to an hour — longer only if vaccines or additional testing are needed on the day.
The sealed envelope goes to USCIS with your application, or to your interview if USCIS asks you to bring it. Follow the filing instructions for your specific case — and never open it.
Most health plans treat the immigration exam as a non-covered service, though some cover the vaccines involved. Check with both the office and your insurer before the visit.
The base fee typically runs $200 to $500 around Jackson Township, plus $0 to $300 or more for vaccines, TB testing and record retrieval depending on your immunization history.
