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.

Book online

Pick a time that suits you, from anywhere in California.

Document review

We check your ID, vaccination records, and USCIS paperwork.

Get matched

We point you to a civil surgeon to seal your Form I-693.

Who can do your immigration physical in York?

Form I-693 can only be completed by a doctor USCIS has specifically designated as a civil surgeon. Before booking anywhere in York County, verify the designation — the Pennsylvania civil surgeon directory is checked against USCIS records.

Compare price and language

Pricing near York tracks the wider Pennsylvania norm of $200–$500 for the exam itself, before any vaccines or testing. Many providers serving York County speak Spanish, Nepali and Arabic, so you can choose a doctor you can talk to comfortably. Because York is a smaller city, many applicants book with a civil surgeon in nearby York Township or Springettsbury Township.

Start online if you are not near a doctor

A virtual pre-consult lets York applicants review documents and vaccination records online before the required in-person exam — useful if your nearest office is in York Township or beyond.

Common questions from York applicants

How long do I have to submit the sealed form?

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.

Where do I send the sealed Form I-693?

Keep the envelope sealed and submit it according to your case instructions — with the application package or at the interview. An opened envelope is rejected.

Can my family doctor do my immigration physical?

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

How is tuberculosis tested during the exam?

TB screening is usually a simple blood draw (an IGRA test). If it comes back positive, the civil surgeon orders follow-up such as a chest X-ray before finalizing your form.

Is any physical preparation needed before the appointment?

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

Can I do a virtual green card medical exam in York?

No exam can be completed entirely online. The virtual pre-consult handles document review and preparation; the physical exam and sealed signature must happen in person.
