The U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Service (USCIS) has announced that all immigrant applicants required to undergo medical examination must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, starting October 1, 2021. The USCIS-approved civil surgeon will only be able to complete the medical examination and Form I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, once the applicant has been fully vaccinated.
Most commonly, immigrants are required to complete a medical examination and submit the Form I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, when filing for Adjustment of Status inside the United States.
