Form I-693 and Green Card

[EmmBee 0]

Hi,

Three months ago, I had received a yellow paper from USCIS asking me to bring my medical exam form I-693 with me to the interview, however, they recently RFE me to send the form via mail and not to wait till the interview.

So I did my medical exam form I-693 and submitted the results to USCIS as they requested in their last RFE letter.

Does anyone know how long it takes for them to process form I-693? Some people say they will do it in 4 weeks and you will get your green card approval after that!

Does anyone have some info??

Thanks in advance.

they could be thinking about waiving the interview if they think it makes sense

In case of waving the interview! any idea how long it takes them to process the medical exam form and come out with a decision?

Recently, there have been increasing numbers of anecdotes regarding waiving interviews for both family based and employment based cases after RFE for I-693 was properly responded. It's not 100% guarantee, but you have a good chance of getting a GC without an interview. Good luck.

Thanks Pablo. Without interview, do you know how long it will take after I-693 properly responded?

No.

Can you fill in your timeline, please?  It helps the rest of us to estimate the process.  That sounds like they are waiving the interview, so keeping my fingers crossed you will have the GC soon!

I got the RFE letter at the end of July 2020, and I responded back by sending my medical exam results in a sealed envelope on August 14. I got my I-140 approved on Sept 2020.

Hopefully soon, Thanks
