Complete Document Checklist

Arriving with complete documentation is the single most important thing you can do to ensure a smooth, efficient immigration medical examination. The following checklist covers everything you should bring.

• Valid government-issued photo ID (passport is preferred; driver's license or state ID is acceptable)
• All available vaccination records, including records from foreign countries
• Any relevant medical records, particularly for chronic conditions
• USCIS receipt notice for your I-485 (Adjustment of Status) application
• Payment for the examination fee (cash, credit card, or debit card)

Why Your Photo ID Is Required

A valid government-issued photo ID is required to verify your identity before the examination can begin. A passport is the preferred form of identification because it is universally recognized and includes your date of birth and country of origin. A driver's license or state-issued ID is also acceptable.

Why Vaccination Records Are So Important

Vaccination records are the most critical documents you can bring to your immigration medical examination. USCIS requires documentation of all required vaccinations, and missing records can result in additional vaccines being administered, titer testing being ordered, or a follow-up appointment being required.

Bring all vaccination records you have, including records from your country of origin. Foreign vaccination records are accepted and reviewed by our civil surgeon. The more complete your vaccination history, the smoother your appointment will be.

Medical Records and Current Medications

If you have any chronic medical conditions, bring relevant medical records and a complete list of your current medications. This is particularly important for conditions such as tuberculosis, HIV, or other conditions that may be relevant to the immigration medical examination.

Payment for the Examination Fee

Payment is due at the time of your appointment. We accept cash, major credit cards, and debit cards. We do not accept health insurance for the immigration medical examination. If you have questions about our current fees, please contact our office before your appointment.
