Information on Medical Exams
 

Every person who applies for an immigrant visa, including children of any age, must undergo a medical examination.  You may select one of the doctors listed below; they all charge the same price.

Each applicant must present to the examining physician:

  1. Passport.  Please make sure that the name, date of birth, sex and expiration date shown on your passport are correct before taking your medical examination.
  2. Photograph.  ID size.
  3. Vaccination Card.  Please make sure it is current.  U.S. law requires certain vaccinations depending on the age and sex of the applicant.

When you come to the Embassy for your interview be sure to present the results of your medical examination in the sealed envelope that the doctor gave you.  Do not open this envelope under any circumstance.

The medical examination is valid for one year.  You will have to repeat your medical examination if:

  • You do not complete the visa process before your medical examination expires, or
  • You change your passport after you have undergone your medical examination.
