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.

Schuylkill Township applicants ask: Form I-693 FAQ

What do I do with the sealed envelope?

You submit it yourself: include the unopened envelope with your USCIS filing, or bring it to your interview if instructed. The civil surgeon does not mail it for you.

Can I do a virtual green card medical exam in Schuylkill Township?

Not fully — USCIS requires an in-person exam. Schuylkill Township applicants can, however, start with a virtual pre-consult so the in-person visit is short and well-prepared.

Do I need an appointment, or are walk-ins accepted?

Policies vary by practice. Some offices accept limited walk-ins, but scheduling ahead is recommended, especially during peak filing seasons.

Can we book the exam as a family?

Each applicant requires a separate exam and sealed form regardless of age. Booking the family in one visit is usually possible and saves trips.

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.

Does a follow-up finding delay my form?

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.
