Medical Immigration Exam

By | November 5, 2018

In order to get a green card and become a permanent resident of the United States, you must first submit to a medical immigration exam. The purpose of the green card medical exam is to ensure that you are healthy enough to enter the United States.

The doctor who completes the exam must be authorized by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) if you are in the United States or approved by the Department of State if you are not in the country.

Although we are an immigration bond company, at US Immigration Bonds & Insurance Services, we know many of our clients have questions about this exam. Here are answers to many questions regarding this exam.

What happens at a medical immigration exam?

A medical immigration exam is different from a routine physical. The doctor is trained to look for certain conditions or diseases that could prevent you from entering the U.S.

The first step of the green card medical exam is to verify that you are who you say you are as well as confirming that you have the necessary documents including Form I-693.

The doctor will check your vaccination record and administer any missing vaccinations. They will also discuss your medical history with you before completing the actual physical medical examination. Because the United State is concerned with the mental health of its potential residents, a mental health exam will also be performed.

So long as you do not have any major medical problems including but not limited to tuberculosis, syphilis, drug abuse or addiction, gonorrhea, severe mental illness, you should pass the exam and be one step closer to getting a green card.

US immigration bonds were absolutely the best they were super professional. When I was down and out when my husband was detained by immigration they were very caring , knowledgeable, and patient. I called them a thousand times and they were very empathic and helpful everytime I called. they reassures me that everything would be fine, and that they would help me my husband, and my children be reunited again. They did everything they could to get me a same day release. They exceeded my expectations. I would not recommend any company other than US immigration bonds. Us immigration bonds, under promises and over fulfills. They were a true blessing ! Thank you so much again.read more

Jeremy Wolf and his agency have been a terrific resource for me as I delve into this foreign world of bonding a friend out of jail so he and his wife can work on his case on the "outside." Jeremy has been unfailingly polite and informative and his video regarding how to complete the necessary forms was a valuable tool too. The entire process was quick and relatively easy. I especially appreciated not having to deal with a jaded, impatient, figure--it-out-yourself kind of person when I was treading in really unfamiliar territory. My questions were always answered quickly and efficiently.I highly recommend this company in your time of need for quick, efficient and professional service with no attitude or delay.read more

Jeremy Wolf, is compassionate and understanding. He has been there and done it with his own family, and together with his wife they dedicate their time and energy into helping other families come together. I know this because my husband was taken by ICE and his bond was set much higher than I could have imagined, having in my hands at any given time. ... With Jeremy, his wife and the rest of the team we were able to piece together the required 80% and set up a affordable and convient payment plan. It was a grueling process, at times I felt like I was going to loose all my hair, as I ran around selling homemade tamales, and had various other fund raisers going on, along with my husband being detained, I lost my home, my dog and my daughter and I pushed forward with the help and support of Jeremy and his team, if It wasn't for there hours of help and dedication, to put a previous bond for my nephew into action to help my husband, we wouldn't have been able to have him home for the Holidays. ... To Jeremy, Veronica, and Amber, who I spoke with often, and the other parts of the team who I was unable to catch their names, I THANK YOU, FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!read more
