Frequently asked in Mt. Lebanon Township

What should I budget for the exam in Mt. Lebanon Township?

The base fee typically runs $200 to $500 around Mt. Lebanon Township, plus $0 to $300 or more for vaccines, TB testing and record retrieval depending on your immunization history.

Should I fast or prepare physically before the exam?

No fasting is required. Eat and drink normally, take your regular medications, and bring a list of them to the appointment.

Will insurance pay for any part of this?

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.

I lost my shot records — can I still do the exam?

Yes, this is handled routinely: titer blood tests can confirm immunity, or the required vaccines can be repeated. Tell the office in advance — it changes how they schedule you.

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

Only physicians holding the USCIS civil surgeon designation may complete Form I-693. A regular Allegheny County family doctor, however good, cannot sign it without that designation.

What if I need language support at the exam?

Yes. You can bring your own translator, or ask whether the office has staff who speak your language, since many practices serving Allegheny County already offer multilingual support.
