My wife and I have an interview on May 29th and I was reviewing the list of documents that they are requiring us to bring to the interview. It says that I have to bring "A Completed medical examination (Form I-693) and vaccination supplement in a sealed envelope (unless already submitted). We already submitted a copy of the DS 3025 when we initially applied for AOS. While I was reviewing



1) The panel physician in the Philippines missed one line on the form: Rotavirus which is typically common for children under the age of 5. St. Lukes did not put a check mark on anything.



2) The date of the examination was on 10/12/2012 which is during flu season. The form checked not a flu season column.



3) One of the vaccines is contraindicated because of a medical condition.



3) The mark is incomplete and blanket waiver is required.



Should I ask a civil surgeon to get it corrected by completing the I-693? If yes, should the CS complete page 1 only or the entire form? I have been told that Syphilis has been added as a Class A medical condition. Does she have to do the entire medical exam again because there were some changes to the medical requirements?



If we have to get a medical examination with a civil surgeon, do you have any recommendations on an experienced Civil Surgeon in Los Angeles? We checked the list of Civil Surgeon on the USCIS website, but many do not seem to know what needs to be done or charges around $250.00. Any input would be appreciated.

hello you probably want to try this civil surgeon..they won't over charge u and they are honest tell u which shot u really needed or don't need. we only end up paying them $ 45 just to revise the ds3025 to I-693.

look for maria..she really helpful!! also, if they ask u if u had physical just say yes.

This is the best info. I went through the thread on CS that don't rip you off. I did not find a CS close to our home. We also went through the USCIS and most of them charge pretty high. I appreciate it.

As for the shots, the panel physician was scared to give my wife specific shots because of her medical condition. When she arrived here, my health insurance gave the same shots and she is fine. It's a cash cow for them. More money if they make mistakes.

Called the referral doctor this morning. Maria seems good on the phone and very honest. Transcription because of the mistake is $45 dollars. She completes the forms herself and ask the doctor to sign it. Of course it will cost more if there is a more active participation of the doctor like a full examination ($340.00).

nice!!! so u only spend $45 right?

or just u talked to her over the phone? anyways it's better if you tell her that you already did the physical and nothing else but just to transcript the DS-3025 to I-693...usually they never check if u really did or not.

also, incase you are missing a shot or vaccines try going to the low cost/no cost clinic so that you could save money.
