The USCIS has announced that the validity period for medical examinations that are required to be submitted by applicants for permanent residence is currently only one year. In year’s past, the USCIS has extended the validity period to ensure that those applicant’s with long pending adjustment applications that were finalized before the next year did not have to obtain new medical examinations. As of June 1, 2014, the USCIS policy now provides that it shall no longer automatically extend Form I-693‘s filed in conjunction with adjustment applications.
Instead, the USCIS has changed its policy to instruct adjudicating officers that the medical examination may be submitted to USCIS concurrently with the immigration benefit application, or at any time after filing the immigration benefit application but prior to the adjudication of that application. The guidance further notes that if the Form I-693 is not filed concurrently with the immigration benefit application, applicants are encouraged to wait until USCIS requests the medical examination report before submitting it.
