We filed for AOS without my TST and I am anticipating an RFE for it. I had my TST after submission. It cost me $14 at a Mobile Health Clinic. A CS usually charges $30 for it.

I'd like to add that if you had your K1 medical prior to June 1, then you could get by without the skin test and use the old vaccination supplement form. There's alot of conflicting advice given here because of the dates of the medicals and the changeover June 1. The people that say they only sent the DS 3025 and got approved are correct, but if you look at their timelines, their medical would have been around the time of their visa.

I'm one of the after June 1 medicals and like Kim, we just sent in the DS 3025 and are waiting for an RFE that forces us to go to a CS. We are the rebels :thumbs:

what do mean by sending the DS 3025 only? didnt u submit the part 1 identification, part 2 vaccination and the part 5 CS certification on the I-693 with your DS 3025?

No, we didn't.

It's fine to get a TST from a non-CS. Just present your copy of the TST result/reading when you have it transcribed.

hi guys! just went to a cs. we paid $125 for everything! that includes blood test and TST. my cs also did a routine physical on me and q and a..it took us 10min to do it! now im expecting that our I-693 form would be complete from page 1-5

i know it says that I DONT NEED to re-do the full medical but, we chose to be on the safe side.

so now, i dont think uscis will still look for something else from us since were filing everything complete! hope to satisfy them..
