NewsFlash! USCIS Now Requires I-693 Medicals to be Filed With I-485 Applications

Today, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that, if a report of immigration medical examination and vaccination record (form I-693) is required for an adjustment of status application (form I-485), it must be filed at the same time as the I-485. Failure to submit a necessary I-693 alongside the I-485 application may result in the I-485 being rejected by the USCIS.

This policy change has been implemented to reduce the number of requests for evidence (RFEs) issued on I-485 filings. It goes into effect immediately.
