Guys

My fiancee is coming to US, does she need to carry the Medical report she received back home to carry with her on the plane as a carry on or put it in the check in bag?

Do the immigration here in US ask for the medical report?

Thanks

The medical is to be turned in at the interview. She will be given a packet with her visa to take to POE. She does not have to carry the Xray, she can put that in her checked baggage.

When you say "medical report" do you mean her x-ray? Or her copy of the medical report? Or her vaccinations??

She needs only the brown/yellow envelope she received with her visa. Her medical report SHOULD be in her file but to be safe it would be wise to put her medical stuff in her carry on. For Aus everything was in the brown envelope and I had a copy of my vaccinations and I had the physical x-ray that I put in my checked bags (it was huge). i didn't NEED to bring the x-ray but some people suggest it's good for your own personal medical records. The copy of the DS-3025 she WILL need for her AOS.

Also, if she doesn't have her DS-3025, or she's able to get a copy of her medical and doesn't have one already she should do that before she leaves her home country. USCIS is known to lose the medical and issue RFE's so if she has a copy she could send a copy of it with her AOS and avoid issues.

Just a clarification, not all countries are the same. My medical was actually sent in when I responded to P3, I didn't take it to the interview. So the OP could be the same and the OP could be talking about a copy, which is why I asked first.

She got the visa, she is coming - it's her X-RAY report - I told her to carry with her and NOT check in.

Nah she's doesn't need it then. Doesn't hurt but it's for HER records, not theirs. But like I said before, it's not a huge issue to carry it in carry-on.. unless it's as big as mine is :P
