Biometric is different, that is done by the USCIS and they won't charge you anything extra for that.

I-693 is something where you need a Civil Surgeon. I-693 should be completed before you file your application. If you have all your vaccination record then you can find some CS who can fill the form at very less cost otherwise vaccination will cost you a lot.

I got all my required vaccinations through my Insurance and went to Surgeon with the records. He charged 200 his fee + 70 for TV Xray. In many cities Surgeons dont charge much.

That's a small problem:

Add ur name in apt d,

Or give an authorization letter to apt d person.

Or let post office know if something comes in ur name at apt d then fwd it to apt b.

the thing is there's no apt.D i just wonder why the letter from the uscis before they send GC even it was address to apt.D since there is no apt.D they put in our mailbox.But now because it was a priority mail they hold it and send back.

What is the TV Xray for?

What is the TV Xray for?

To check if you are susceptible or you have TB...

If you have taken BCG vaccine during childhood then your initial TB test will come positive but X-ray will tell you exactly if you have TB or not...

Quick question please, we are in the process of filing for AOS, I came in on the K-1 visa. I am confused about what last name to use in the forms, do I use the same last name (my maiden name) in my Passport & K-1 visa, or should I use my now married (husband's) last name? worried if there'll be any clash/confusion on the USCIS side. My Social Security Card has my husband's last name. Thanks for any help I can get.

use your new name and provide your marriage certificate. All your documents including passport can be in any name as long as those names are mentioned on your marriage certificate.

I have a question about AOS too, i came by k1 n married within 90 days, my marriage certificate just has my single name as the recorder didn't ask for name change after married and we didn't know about that. I sent my AOS papers by using my new name, i used my christian name as my first name (i sent my baptizm letter as the only evidence), my single name as my middle name and my husband last name as my last name ( i sent my marriage certificate). I also sent my DoD card copy as my husband is active member in military and it has my new name. Do you think it will be okay?
