Virtual immigration physical pre-consult

Frequently asked in Salisbury Township

Do I need to stop eating or taking medication beforehand?

You can eat, drink, and take medications as usual. The only preparation that matters is having your documents and records ready.

Can children or my whole family be examined together?

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

Are missing vaccination records a problem?

Missing records are common. The doctor can run titer tests to prove immunity or simply re-administer required vaccines. Flag it when you book so extra time is set aside.

Can I bring a translator to my appointment?

Bringing your own translator is fine. Many offices around Lehigh County also have multilingual staff — ask when booking.

How long is Form I-693 valid once completed?

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.

Can my family doctor do my immigration physical?

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.
