Hi

 

We were married with K1 and now applying for AOS and confused about the process

So I did complete a medical for my K1-visa and the form I-693 looks different than the medical form for the K1-VISA. 

I am wondering if it is required that I do both of those since they kept all my medical stuff when  I entered the US. 

 

Why would we need to do a medical before entering and then another one within 90 days?

 

Thanks

As long as you had all of the required immunizations and they were marked as completed or waived during your medical exam, you don't need to have another medical or complete the I-693.  My partner was missing a few immunizations so after his arrival, we got those done and had a Civil Surgeon complete the I-693 for us.  The medical is valid for 1 year for a K1 so as long as you start the AOS process within that time, you should be fine.  There have been a few discussions here, and a few different experiences, with that 1 year timeframe.  Sometimes AOS will take a long time to complete and you may be required to do another medical exam which they would inform you about either at the interview or via an RFE.  However, the instructions state that the medical is valid as long as AOS is started within the year timeframe and some people have not had to do a medical again even if AOS goes beyond the year mark.  Good luck!
