You are such a sweet, knowledgeable, and smart girl Kseniya!

Thank you for this video.

Very clear and informative! USCIS sent me letter requst re-submitting a complete I693 due to incomplete of vaccination records. Do you know if I need to re-do the entire medical exam or just the vaccination. Thank you!

you help me a lot in all your video thank u so much ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you!

Thank you so much! Whats the best way to get the medical exam without having to do the vaccinations? Should i not agree at the doctors? Or apply for a waivor?

Hi KSENIYA ...you are doing great with your informational videos...i just wanted to know if someone has std while asylum case is pending in usa does that affect the asylum case or deportation?

did you submit it with your application or did you wait for the interview?

Question... Should the completed I-693 form to be submitted with the initial I-130/130A online form (spouse outside US) online submission or after it's been approved? Especially if no A # has been designated

Perfect! May I ask for instructions for I-140 for EB1

Question? My mother had her interview and did not know about the n648. Is she able to take the form with her for second interview same day or does she send it in. Or is it to late

What kind of information do they send to immigration? In other words, how does the form look like or what type of other stuff do they send them? Is it just the form?

Does the online status of your application show that I-693 is needed in addition to receiving the deficiency letter in the mail close to your appointment date?

thank you very muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got the medical examinations and vaccination done by panel physician in my home country before my fiancé visa interview. Entered USA, got married and filed I-485. I got interview scheduled. Do I need to fill form I-693 and take to my interview?

When we have to take appointment for medical exam?....after getting interview date?

I have received RFE to submit medical and w2 and 1099s of my spouse. Is it a green signal ? I had applied i-485 on may 10th 2023. And received RFE on 5th June 2023(after 25 days of submission of I-485). Received letter for biometrics as well.

Actually, USCIS have changed their procedure for receiving I-693. Even prior to a notice about an interview, they request that you complete the I-693 and express mail it to them first. They only give you a very short window of time to submit it… ~30 days.

Hi Kseniya! I was planning on filing all forms with my married name, but when I told the civil surgeon I hired that I wanted to use my married name he said they are instructed to make sure that the name in the forms matches the ID, and that a marriage certificate is not a USCIS allowed proof of ID. Now I'm very confused. Has anybody had this issue? Thank you so much!

Can I attend my interview without a medical examination? I’m pregnant and don’t want to do the chest X-ray which is mandatory in my country. I’m wondering if I can still attend the interview and submit the medical examination after my pregnancy?

What type of envelope we need to bring at the medical exams ? Also my Dr wants me to go twice and my time is running out.

hello, i want some information regarding form i693. I had my medical examination overseas with no class A and completed all vaccination DS-3025 and one year is not completed. I had my covid vaccination here in united stated. Do I need to consult a civil surgeon and fill again form i693 bcoz earlier it( covid vaccination) was not included the DS-3025. I do have my covid vaccination cdc card with me. please reply.....

Do I hold onto the waiver form also for the interview date?

Is this medical exam just for the beneficiary or also for applicants

While emigrating? And if you already here?

Do I need to fill the form I693 by myself or the doctor will fill it ?

would that be okay havin it done from a different state? I mean is it mandatory for it to be done only in my state?

IMPORTANT UPDATE!!! 1. On February 10, 2023 USCIS has issued the following guidance for I-693: “Save time by submitting Form I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, when you file Form I-485. We generally consider a completed Form I-693 to remain valid for two years after the date the civil surgeon signed Form I-693. www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/reminder-to-submit-all-required-initial-evidence-and-supporting-documentation-including-form-i-693 2. USCIS is permanently getting rid of the 60-day signature requirement for the medical exam. Beginning March 31st, 2023, a completed and signed I-693 form will be valid for 2 years, regardless if it was completed before or after filing I-485. www.uscis.gov/i-693#:~:text=After%20the%202%2Dyear%20time,States%20on%20public%20health%20grounds. 3.
