Is i-693 required?

[Naida101 3]

 Hi all,

 

quick question; is the i-693 required when applying for I-485? My husband (then fiancé) arrived in the US under k-1 visa this April and then we got married this month. He underwent a medical exam in our home country which was submitted to that consulate. We are preparing the paperwork to adjust status; we’ve already filled out: I-485, I-131, I-864, I-765 and wasn’t sure if I-693 was required.

 

Thank you all for your help

“If you are a K-1, K-2, K-3 or K-4 visa holder the I-693 instructions state that you are not required to have another medical examination as long as your Form I-485 is filed within one year of your overseas medical examination. If you are missing any shots from your overseas medical a I-693 vaccination transcription is required to be completed by seeing a Civil Surgeon to have certain portions of the I-693 completed and have the Civil Surgeon certify the form (sealing the original in an envelope and giving you a copy).”
