Hi guys! I have a quick question.

I have my Green Card Interview in 2 weeks. I came to US on a K1 fiancee visa. In the USCIS notice regarding the interview, they ask me to bring form I-693 (medical examination).

I think it does not apply to my case, I had my med exam less than a year ago. I did not do it when I applied for AOS for the same reason, I just sent my vaccination record, and did not get any REF.

I read the instructions to the form and as far as I understand I don't need to do med exam http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-693instr.pdf

Can someone share there experience in the same situation?

Thanks very much!

They have changed the rule, probably that's why they applied to you. Anyhow, you should be lucky get the interview done shortly because people who received NPIW letter waited more than a year to get their green card. In worst case get NPIW letter AND interview scheduled.

I did not received RFE before my biometric as like many people had experience. I received it after almost a year of filing because my medical exam from K-1 visa was expired due the long waiting for the process.

I had my AOS interview last week. I prepared all the documents and photos to prove our bonafide marriage but the IO never looked at it. She just asked the questions written in I-485 Form. About the I-693, I only sent DS-3025 when i filed my AOS and attached page 4,#7-c of I-485 since my Medical Exam is less than a year.. no RFE. I never went to a Civil Surgeon before the interview since my Medical Exam is still valid. The IO just checked the my DS-3025 in her file (date & completeness). It's only a 5 minute interview for me.

Received the Welcome Letter this week & waiting for the GC :)

I don't have the DS-3025. I got it sealed and brought to the Embassy when I had my visa interview. After visa was granted I received a sealed envelope with all the documents, which were later taken by DHS in the airport. So I never had in my hands the DS3025, it probably was in that package. At the airport they said that they will forward it to the local USCIS.

Anyway, I had my vaccination record with me, from my home country. I translated it and sent to the USCIS when applied. Did not get any RFE, so I guess everything is ok.

In instructions to the form I693 it is said that I don't need a new exam, since my is still valid....

If your K-1 medical exam will be less than a year old at the time of your interview, then you should not need to repeat one. The medical is valid for a year, and K-1 applicants are still supposed to have their own special policies related to the medical. I would not go to a civil surgeon and pay for a new exam unless the IO told me I had to.
