Hi, I just wanna know if I need a civil surgeon for my DS-3025 to be transcribed to I-693. My vaccine history is incomplete and i have a copy of DS 3025 with me. Hope to hear from you. Thanks.

I have heard of some that get by with making a copy of the DS-3025 and sending the DS-3025 in with the I-485 when filing AOS and not having a problem, but the recomended practice is to get it transcribed to an I-693 by a US Civil surgeon.

Thanks. So it's up to me now wether I'll take the risk of getting an RFE for not transcribing it to I693

If your vaccines are not completed, I would not send a DS-3025 that isn't fully completed for all vaccines that were required at the time of your medical. Get the vaccines you are missing first, then send in the completed form.

Hi!

Here's some info for you in the process.

Here's the USCIS document on the new vaccine/TB skin test requirements. Depending on when the medical was done, you may or may not need something new...

Here are the impt dates from that website.

Date of Medical Exam

Do I have to submit the revised Form I-693?

Does the medical exam have to be done in accordance with the new TB requirements?

Do I have to receive the new vaccines (if age appropriate?)

Do not let the doctor try to get you to do more than you need, a new medical is not needed if the medical was done in the last year. It says so clearly in the instructions for the I-693. David and I paid $25 for the transcription. Call around to different Civil Surgeons or use Dr. Arnold on the first page of the I-693 info (see link below).
