What Is the I-693 Immigration Medical Exam?

The I-693 exam is required by USCIS to confirm that an applicant does not have certain communicable diseases and has received required vaccinations.

The physical includes:

• A review of your medical history 

• A physical exam by a civil surgeon approved by USCIS 

• A review of your vaccination record 

• Blood and urine tests for specific communicable diseases 

• Completion and sealing of Form I-693 for USCIS

What’s Included at MRHS

We provide a complete I-693 medical exam package that meets all USCIS guidelines. Your visit typically includes:

Civil Surgeon Exam

Our certified civil surgeon will conduct a comprehensive physical examination and review your full medical history, including past illnesses, current medications, and chronic conditions.

Required Laboratory Tests

USCIS mandates certain blood and urine tests for immigration purposes:

• Tuberculosis screening (IGRA blood test)

  • Note: A chest X-ray may be required if the TB test is positive. 

• Syphilis testing (RPR blood test) for ages 18–44) 

• Gonorrhea screening (urine test) for ages 18–24) 

All required lab tests are performed on-site or by a trusted partner lab for speed and accuracy.

Vaccination Review and Catch-Up Immunizations

We will review your immunization records to verify whether you have received all vaccines required by USCIS. If you are missing any, we can administer them during your appointment.

Common vaccinations required include:

• MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) 

• Varicella (Chickenpox) 

• Tetanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis (Tdap) 

• Influenza (if applying during flu season) 

• Hepatitis B 

• COVID-19 

Some vaccinations require multiple doses spaced out over time. If this applies to you, we’ll provide a clear schedule and follow-up appointments as needed.

Sealed I-693 Form

Once all medical and lab requirements are complete, we’ll prepare and seal your official I-693 packet for submission to USCIS. You’ll also receive an unsealed copy for your personal files.

To ensure your visit goes smoothly, please bring the following:

• A valid government-issued photo ID (passport, visa, green card, or driver’s license) 

• Any previous vaccination records, translated into English if necessary 

• Records of any prior TB treatment or abnormal chest X-rays (if applicable) 

• A list of your current medications and medical conditions 

• Your A-number, if available

When to Schedule
