Fee Beaters!

[Dakine 26]

Better get moving if you want to beat the fee increase!

Some Designated Civil Surgeons are booked up due to "Fee Beaters" and the TB skin test trip.

Depends on where you live.

You can also get the TB skin test at your local health department for free and just show the results to a DCS.

I guess you could file without the I-693 [supplemental also] tho and deal with a possible RFE later.

Still have to get the DCS to sign off the Supplemental I-693 or I-693 tho.

Yes definitely... Give calls to civil surgeons around the area too.

The closest to mine was booked for a month, they other one could take me within the week (Hickory, NC) but they are getting very busy.

And yes, definitely do the TB test in your local health department (I wish I had, I didn't know it was free), plus if you show positive (a lot of us who had the BCG as kids do) they seem to do the X-ray of your chest for free. So compare to all the extra fees you get already froma civil surgeon it's a good deal.
