Civil surgeon I-693 without medical records

[Bots2012 1]

Hi VJ,

My fiance arrived from Botswana on a K1 visa on September 28th and we are getting married on December 12th. We are looking ahead at the AOS paperwork. Unfortunately, he didn't get a copy of his medical records/vaccinations from the doctor he went to for the K1 paperwork in Johannesburg. He is on my health insurance so I am wondering if we can go to a provider in our network to do all the medical tests, etc to save money and then bring the paperwork to a USCIS civil surgeon to fill the I-693 or doe the civil surgeon actually have to be the one conducting the tests?

I've seen in other threads that the civil surgeons make you pay even to just fill out the I-693, but is this will the paperwork from the K1 medical paperwork exclusively or from any provider?

Thanks

You would likely have to ask the particular civil surgeon if they would be willing to sign off on another physician's work.

Good luck on your immigration journey.
