if your medical was done less than 12 months before the date you filed for AOS then you dont need another full medical... but you should have sent in the I-693A (Vaccination Supplement) along with your AOS packet....

Never sent it in...never got asked for it.

Guess I will need to get a Dr to complete this for me...is it a straight forward thing to do? If I don't have it in time for my interview what will happen?

Stsrt calling Designated Civil Surgeons in your area. Best to have the Supplemental I-693 vaccination form in hand. Actually you should have submitted it with the application.

"C. Medical Examinations

According to 8 CFR 245.5, aliens seeking to adjust status are required to undergo a medical examination performed by a designated civil surgeon to determine whether they are inadmissible under section 212(a)(1)(A) of the Act. To date, applicants for K nonimmigrant visas have been required to obtain a medical examination abroad pursuant to Department of State regulations at 22 CFR 41.81 prior to entry, and the medical examination is not repeated if they apply for adjustment of status within 1 year of the dat e the examination was performed. They are, however, required to submit with the adjustment of status application a vaccination assessment completed by a designated civil surgeon in order to establish their compliance with the vaccination requirements under section 212(a)(1)(A)(ii) of the Act.

The Service will continue this same policy for the K-3/K-4 nonimmigrants. K-3/K-4 nonimmigrants who file their adjustment of status application within 1 year from the date of the medical examination overseas will not have to submit an additional medical examination. However, the Service notes that applicants whose medical examinations overseas revealed a “Class A†or “Class B†condition (as defined by 42 CFR 34.2( B ) ) must establish upon application for adjustment of status that they complied with those cond itions imposed on the initial admission. Failure to comply with those conditions means that a new medical examination will be required.

If you dont have it done before the interview it wont be that much of a problem. I didnt have the supplement done for mine, even though all my vaccinations were completely up to date I thought I might just slip through with the overseas document. I got a RFE at interview for the supplement. They give 90 days to return the information and then finish processing/review.
