The USCIS published a new medical report form of I-693 and the old
form is announced to be acceptable only until 05/01/2008.
This form is used by the USCIS designated civil surgeons for the
permanent residence applicants. This short notice of the changed form
however presents a problem. The first problem is that as the USCIS
admits, there are a huge number of such qualified civil surgeons
throughout the country and for that matter, throughout the world,
performing medical examination for immigrants, but the USCIS is
currently experiencing some problem giving a notice to some civil
surgeons via emails because they did not provide their email addresses
to the USCIS.
Accordingly, there may be incidents that some civil surgeons may issue
the I-693 medical report on the expired form which will no longer be
acceptable to the agency. The applicants have no way to learn whether
the civil surgeon used the outdated version of the form since they are
given it in a "sealed" envelope.
Considering such problem, the USCIS has been recommended to consider
extension of acceptable date of the old medical form, which the USCIS
took under advisement. Accordingly, there is some chance that just as
the yesterday's announcement on EAD form, the USCIS may or may not
release a similar announcement in the very near future. However,
considering the fluid situation, it may be advisable for the people to
print out the new form and carry it to the civil surgeon's office on
the date of their medical examination appointment.
