Understanding the Process
What Is a USCIS
Immigration Medical Exam?
The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) requires most applicants for lawful permanent residence — including those adjusting status from within the U.S. — to complete a medical examination conducted by a USCIS-designated Civil Surgeon.
This exam confirms that you meet the medical admissibility requirements for permanent residency. It includes a physical examination, review of vaccination history, and required laboratory tests.
The results are recorded on Form I-693, which your Civil Surgeon seals and signs. You submit this sealed form to USCIS as part of your adjustment of status application.
At First Lithonia Medical Center, Dr. Okobah handles every step — from your initial exam to handing you the completed, sealed form — with care, precision, and respect for your time.
Who Needs This Exam?
- Applicants filing Form I-485 (Adjustment of Status)
- Individuals applying for a visa at a U.S. consulate abroad who are referred to a panel physician
- Refugees and asylees applying for lawful permanent residence
- Certain applicants for Special Immigrant Juvenile Status
- Anyone applying for admission as an immigrant from outside the U.S.
