Come Prepared, Avoid Delays
Showing up to your I-693 immigration medical exam without the right paperwork is one of the most common causes of delay. Here’s what to bring to your appointment with Dr. Silva:
- A valid, unexpired photo ID: A passport, driver’s license, or other government-issued photo ID. This is required to verify your identity before the exam can begin.
- Your vaccination records: Bring whatever you have, even if incomplete or from another country — records in any language are accepted. Missing records don’t stop your visit; Dr. Silva can administer needed vaccines during your appointment.
- Your current Form I-693, if you’ve started it: Bring it printed but unsigned. You’ll sign it in front of Dr. Silva during your visit, not before.
- Prior medical records, if available: Especially anything related to hospitalizations, chronic conditions, or prior tuberculosis history or chest X-rays, since these are part of the required medical history review.
- A list of current medications: Helps Dr. Silva complete your history accurately and efficiently.
- Your method of payment: For the exam itself and any vaccines or testing needed during the visit.
