Virtual immigration physical pre-consult

Not near a civil surgeon yet, or want to prepare before your appointment? Start online with Dapinder Kaur, FNP.

Form I-693 questions Sewickley Township applicants ask

How much time does the appointment itself take?

Plan for 30–60 minutes in the office. Catch-up vaccines or a TB blood draw can extend the visit somewhat.

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

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

What if I do not have my vaccination records?

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.

What if the exam finds something that needs more testing?

Follow-up items such as TB confirmation are recorded on the form, and the doctor explains what happens next. Sealing waits until everything required is complete.

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

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.

Do my kids need their own immigration physical?

Yes, each family member applying needs an individual exam and form. Offices commonly book families together in one block, so ask for consecutive slots.
