I am calling 2 civil surgeon in my area and they all want me to do the whole medical where I only want the Dr. to transcribed my vaccination supplement. Any recommendation for me?? Thank you.

You are the customer in this case, and you don't have to get the medical exam if you don't want it. I can understand the civil surgeons wanting to give you the exam (more money for them), and I can also understand that they might suggest (even insist) you need to have the medical exam from them. But, if you tell them that you only want the vaccination supplement completed, I would be surprised if they wouldn't do that for you (for a cost much less than what they quoted you for the med exam). We ran into the same thing with our local civil surgeon. She pretty much insisted that Tania should have the medical exam, but she ended up doing just what we asked of her.

But, if your local civil surgeons refuse to cooperate, getting it done by mail with Dr. Arnold is a good option. Good luck to you!

Yes! I am half way and I ended up sending it to him cause five civil surgeons I called here wanted me to had a full medical exam that can cost to $500-1000 including the costs of vaccines. The last civil surgeon I called said that transcribing my medical costs me I think $125 for it. I had my vaccine in a Public Health Department. If you had private surgeon you can asked them for the vaccines that you need, probably it is covered to your husband's medical insurance and can save.

Print the second page to explain what vaccines do you need:

Definitely give Dr. Arnold a call. Leave a message if they don't answer. They will return the call sooner rather than later.

Very cheap and it gets the job done.

When you apply to adjust status in the States, assuming you as a K-1 holder apply within one year of the original medical, you need I-693.The instructions to form I-693 say: What if I am a K nonimmigrant visa holder and had a medical exam overseas?

If you were admitted as a K-1 fiancé(e), or K-2 child of a K-1 fiancé(e),You are not required to have another medical examination as long as your form I-485 Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status,is filed within one year of your overseas medical examination.

Here's where it gets tricky! Some people have submitted a DS-3025 (obtained overseas at your medical documenting your vaccinations) with their AOS package and have NOT received RFE's. Some HAVE. If you want to be absolutely safe in terms of your medical documentation as a K-1 adjusting status, you should take your DS-3025 to a USCIS-certified civil surgeon and ask them to transfer the information from your DS-3025 to an I-693. They should do this for a nominal charge. If they try to tell you you need a full medical examination, DO NOT LISTEN. You ONLY need the vaccination part. The following memo from the USCIS documents that this completed form will remain valid.
