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.

Form I-693 questions North Fayette Township applicants ask

What does the TB screening involve?

Applicants generally take an IGRA blood test for tuberculosis. A positive result leads to follow-up, typically a chest X-ray, before the form can be completed.

How long is Form I-693 valid once completed?

Validity rules have changed over time — the form is valid for a defined period from the civil surgeon’s signature. Check the current USCIS policy for your filing category before submitting.

Is an interpreter allowed at the appointment?

You may bring a translator, and it is worth asking about in-house language support: several practices serving Allegheny County have multilingual teams.

Can my family doctor do my immigration physical?

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.

Do my kids need their own immigration physical?

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

Can I use my insurance for the exam?

Usually not for the exam itself — it is not considered medical treatment — but vaccine costs are sometimes covered. Ask your insurer and confirm what the office can bill.
