Help! Unsure when to file i-693

[Sel11 0]

Hi guys, this is my first time posting on here after quietly sleuthing for months.. 

my immigration journey has been unique, initially filed for consular processing and started the process March, 2021. 

i130 was approved Dec 2021, and I began my NVC process. 

However this past June while visiting my husband I went into early very early labour and had my baby in Michigan & while my baby was in the NICU we decided that we would have to change to AOS processing. 

We submitted the I-485 & I-864 Sept 26, 2022- I had my biometrics Oct 28,22 & my case went into active review Oct 29, 2022. 

There has been no updates since then... I am now realizing that I should have submitted the I-693 medical exam and am now worried that I did this incorrectly. 

I am assuming I will get an RFE for a medical & can submit it then but I am wondering if I can go ahead and do the medical and submit it on my own before the RFE? 

Or should I wait? 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.. thanks :)

~~ Topic moved from CR1/IR1 forum to AOS from work/tourist/student visas - this is no longer a CR1 spousal visa case ~~

There's a great chance you'll have to do AOS interview. You could bring the medical to the interview.

Definitely wait for Notice from USCIS to do your medical. It won’t case any additional delay#, so no worries, and once you send it in, they’re been efficient about determining next step ; either an interview waiver or they will give you a dates to attend
