Clínica Hispana Familiar 529 performs the immigration medical exam with a USCIS-authorized physician (civil surgeon) in Houston. Form I-693 is delivered completed and sealed in the official envelope, ready to be filed with your residency application. Care in Spanish, no insurance needed.
Who needs the I-693 exam?
It is required for anyone applying for permanent residence (green card) from within the United States through Form I-485, adjustment of status. It is also requested in some refugee, asylee and certain visa cases. Applicants outside the country use a consulate panel physician, not a civil surgeon.
What does the immigration medical exam include?
- Review of medical history and vaccination records
- Complete physical exam
- Tuberculosis blood test (IGRA) for ages 2 and up; if positive, a chest X-ray
- Syphilis blood test for ages 18 to 44, and gonorrhea test for ages 18 to 24
- Vaccines required by age, such as MMR, Tdap or Td, varicella, hepatitis B and seasonal flu
- Form I-693 completed, signed and sealed
What is the process, step by step?
- 1First visit: physical exam, blood draw and vaccine review.
- 2If the tuberculosis test is positive, a chest X-ray is done.
- 3Missing vaccines are administered, or the ones you already have are documented.
- 4The medical team completes and signs Form I-693 and hands it to you in a sealed envelope, along with a copy for your records.
- 5Do not open the envelope: USCIS only accepts the form sealed by the civil surgeon.
What should I bring?
- Passport or photo ID
- Vaccination records, with an English translation if they are in another language
- Medical records for chronic conditions or treatments
- If you had tuberculosis or a positive test before, the previous results and X-rays
- Your case receipt number, if USCIS has already requested the exam
How long is the I-693 valid?
USCIS has changed the validity rules for the form several times. The safest approach is to file the I-693 together with your application, or as soon as USCIS requests it, and confirm the current rule at uscis.gov before your visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
01Who needs the I-693 medical exam?
People adjusting status to permanent resident from within the U.S. on Form I-485 need it, as do some refugees, asylees and certain visa holders. If you apply from abroad, the exam is done by a consulate panel physician instead.
02What does the immigration exam at the clinic include?
Review of your history and vaccines, a physical exam, a TB blood test (IGRA) from age 2, syphilis and gonorrhea tests by age, required vaccines such as MMR, Tdap or varicella, and the form completed by a USCIS-authorized Civil Surgeon.
03Which documents do I bring to the I-693 exam?
Passport or photo ID, your vaccination record translated into English if it is in another language, records of chronic conditions, earlier results or X-rays if you had TB, and your receipt number if USCIS already requested the exam.
04Can I open the I-693 envelope?
No. The form is handed over in a sealed envelope, with a separate copy for you. USCIS only accepts it unopened, exactly as the Civil Surgeon sealed it.
05How long is the form valid?
USCIS has changed that rule several times. The safest approach is to file the I-693 with your application or when USCIS requests it, and check the current rule on uscis.gov.
