Hi, 

 

My fiancee came here last month on the 20th before the pandemic. We were thankfully able to get our marriage license. However, we're worried about being able to do the I-693. From what we could read, she is required to see a doctor to get an examination in order to complete the I-693. But with the CO-VID pandemic going on, no doctors would be willing to see her because she is not essential. She received all her vaccinations in Portugal. Her medical file expires this October BUT the embassy in Paris (when she did the interview) told her she needs to complete the I-693 by April 20th (not sure why), so would we need to be concerned?

 

Thanks in advance!

Read the special instructions for k visas in the I693 instructions.   I think you might be happy you did read

YMMV

As noted, read the I-693 completely.

 

Also, check the USCIS policy manual for relevant sections that apply to you:
