I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record: Complete form I-693

Where to File

After completing the medical history, immigration physical examination, and test results, the civil surgeon provides the applicant with the completed Form I-693 in a sealed envelope. USCIS immigration services will return the form to you if it is not in a sealed envelope, opened, or altered.

How do I determine which vaccines Immigration Medical Exams require to complete the I-693 form?

CDC publishes the vaccination requirements, including a detailed table listing all required vaccines at: http://www.cdc.gov/immigrantrefugeehealth/exams/ti/civil/vaccination-civil-technical-instructions.html

Do I have to receive all the vaccines on the CDC's vaccination list for the immigrant population, or only the ones appropriate for age?

You must document the receipt of vaccines appropriate for your age. The civil surgeon will also indicate if you were not required to receive a particular vaccine.

Frequently asked questions about form I-693, Vaccines, and Tuberculosis.

COVID-19 Vaccine Not Longer Required for Immigration Medical Exams.

Effective Jan. 22, 2025, USCIS is waiving any requirements that applicants for adjustment of status to that of a lawful permanent resident present documentation on their Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, that they received the COVID-19 vaccination. USCIS will not issue any Request for Evidence or Notice of Intent to Deny related to proving a COVID-19 vaccination. USCIS will not deny any adjustment of status application based on the applicant’s failure to present documentation that they received the COVID-19 vaccination.

Here are the non-medical reasons why vaccines are not administered during Immigration Medical Exams:

-The applicant may request a waiver based on religious or moral convictions. If an applicant objects to vaccination based on religious or moral beliefs, they must submit a waiver request to USCIS.

 

-If the applicant refuses a vaccine and their vaccine history is incomplete, they decline a single dose of any required vaccine that is medically appropriate. Consequently, the vaccine requirements remain incomplete.

Will USCIS accept an Immigration Medical Exams Form I-693 if the vaccination chart is incomplete?

No. The vaccination chart should have at least one entry in each row for each vaccine. 

Immigration Medical Exams Tuberculosis Questions

Why do civil surgeons screen me for tuberculosis when I apply for an adjustment of status for US permanent residence?

Every immigrant applying for an Immigration Medical Exam, including an adjustment of status applicant, has to be screened for communicable diseases of public health, including Tuberculosis. Additionally, civil surgeons will request Chest X-rays if a TB screening test is positive.
