Because you did not complete the vaccination requirement before or at your overseas panel physician medical exam you will need to complete the vaccinations in the US or if you have already completed them you will need a US Civil Surgeon to fill out the vaccination portion of an i-693 for you. 

 

Most US Civil Surgeons will not simply transcribe your vaccination record to an i-693 and will require you to complete an all-new medical exam. You may have to shop around on the USCIS doctors list in order to find a civil surgeon that will simply transcribe your vaccination record for you but that may prove extremely difficult.

 

That's why it is always recommended to complete your entire medical exam including the vaccinations before you leave your country and have them signed off by your overseas panel physician.

 

Simply handing in your vaccination record that has not been recognized by either an overseas panel physician or u.s. civil surgeon will not do.

It is really a money factor, they will charge trying to find somebody who will  only charge a reasonable amount to fill the form in can be tricky.
