Can someone please shine light on this?

Do we need to have another medical? And have the I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record - USCIS filled out while filing for AOS? Or not, if our K-1 medical is under a year old? Mine is from May. Should I schedule the medical or is it a waste of money since they already received a valid one in that brown envelope?

For overseas medical exams, it is valid for 12 months and can be used for AOS. You can bring it to a civil surgeon if you really want to be sure but from what I've heard, they were able to use the medical exam they did overseas for AOS.

Thank you. I don't understand the 'you can bring it to a civil surgeon if you like'. The immigration officer at the point of entry took my brown envelope. I only have a vaccination sheet left. I'm gonna write thay in the cover letter to my AOS. Do tou think that will be enough? Or should he not taken that away from me and now I have to go through another medical?

is the vaccination sheet you are talking about the DS-3025?

 

You can have the civil surgeon transcribe the vaccination information to form I-693 for a minimal fee. (Sorry that was what I was pertaining to in my previous post). You can either include the DS-3025 in the AOS application...or include the form I-693.

 

You can find more info here:

Yes, it's DS-3025 and it says it's complete. This thread is really confusing though, there are a lot of mixed answers.

November Filers!  Hope everyone is having a fantastic Tuesday/Wednesday.

 

Anyone else stuck in Administrative Processing Purgatory?  

 

My fiancee had a successful interview at the Sydney Consulate on June 27th pending successful medical exam results.  Those successful medical results were shipped express the next day.  We've been stuck in AP since July 5th!  We are so close yet so far!

After almost 8 months and an absolutely crazy last 24 hours my fiancée has his interview tomorrow! We were originally scheduled for Sept 4th but we contacted the embassy asked to be put on the waitlist for a closer interview date and contacted our congressman. After 10 business days of waiting for a response form the embassy our congressman sent a follow up email Wednesday at 10am. Wednesday at 4:50pm a call came that the embassy had an opening for Friday!

 

My fiancée has yet to get his medical done so we were feeling a bit down because it was obvious there was no way to get it done with less than 48 hours. Congressman messaged the embassy saying we didn't have the medical done yet but that we would try to get it done for Friday. Embassy messages back saying it's not a big deal, come to the interview and drop off the medical once you receive it! 

 

We are on our way! Fiancée is on his way to Santiago now for the interview tomorrow! We are so excited and hoping that everything turns out smoothly!

Hello Art!

We got the interview, we were accepted at the interview! Had to get medical done, it took this long to get everything in order with the medical (the lady at the Chilean medical place is just absolutely crazy, she was telling my fiancee horror stories of fiancees waiting 8 years to be done with the process, that the medical exam price was going to jump to over double and that the embassy wasnt allowing any people in for over a year as of last week or some random junk like that that was not true at all!) He just dropped off medical today and we are waiting for the visa in hand. 

Already booked the ticket and he should be here soon! 

Thanks for asking! :D
