Preparing for the USCIS Medical Exam for Green Card

Before heading to the appointment, it helps to have your vaccination records, medical history, identification, and other requested documents together. Digging through old records on the day of the exam is the last thing most applicants want.

It is also worth asking the medical office what the quoted examination fee covers. Vaccinations, laboratory work, or other services may be billed separately, so knowing this beforehand gives you a better idea of what you may actually spend. You can't always determine the cost from a standard fee alone. Once the civil surgeon has reviewed your records and knows what the examination requires, the office can give you a more useful estimate.

For green card applicants in New York, arranging the medical examination is one more item to handle in an already paperwork-heavy process. Having the right records ready and asking about costs in advance can make that part of the application a little less stressful.
