Fill out USCIS Form I-693 Online in 2026

Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, is used by individuals applying for U.S. immigration. This form verifies that applicants have undergone a medical examination and received necessary vaccinations. It is essential to ensure that new immigrants do not pose a health risk to the public. Completing this form accurately is crucial, as it helps immigration officials assess an applicant's health status and eligibility for residency or adjustment of status.

Form I-693 is used to report the results of an immigration medical examination. Here’s what it is used for:

• to confirm vaccination history.

Form I-693 must be completed by applicants seeking adjustment of status, including refugees and K or V visa holders. This form is essential for those aiming to become lawful permanent residents in the U.S.

After completion, USCIS uses the form to assess the applicant's medical history and vaccination status during the adjustment process.

Form I-693 is not needed for individuals not applying for adjustment of status or permanent residency in the U.S. If you previously submitted a valid Form I-693, signed by a civil surgeon on or after November 1, 2023, you can use it indefinitely.

USCIS may also waive the requirement if there's no indication that your medical condition has changed since your last valid submission.

There is no standalone deadline for Form I-693. Since December 2, 2024, USCIS requires that Form I-693 be submitted at the same time as Form I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status). If you do not include it, your Form I-485 may be rejected.

For applications filed before December 2, 2024, USCIS may request Form I-693 through a Request for Evidence (RFE) if it was not included at the time of filing. Always check for the latest updates from official sources to ensure compliance.
