Guidance Regarding Changes to Form I-693

Share this:

USCIS has announced new changes related to Form I-693, the Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record. As of June 1, USCIS limits the period of validity of these forms to one year from the date that USCIS receives the form. This update applies to all Form I-693s supporting benefit applications received on or after June 1, 2014.

Individuals applying for adjustment of status should submit their Form I-693 in one of the following ways.

  • Submit Form I-693 by mail, together with your Form I-485, Application to Register for Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, to the location specified for your Form I-485 (see “Direct Filing Addresses for Form I-485”).
  • Submit Form I-693 by mail, after filing your Form I-485, to the location specified in your most recent communication with USCIS (for example, a Request for Evidence letter from USCIS).
  • Submit Form I-693 in person at an interview in a USCIS field office (if an interview is required).
