I-693 Medical Exams for Permanent Residence

All applicants for permanent residence must take a medical examination to test for certain diseases that may render the applicant ineligible absent a waiver. 

Most applicants for US permanent residence must undergo a special medical examination. The medical exam is designed to detect communicable diseases like tuberculosis, syphilis, Hansen's disease (leprosy), HIV, AIDS and others as well as to confirm the applicant's mandatory vaccination record. Unfortunately, it is common for USCIS-approved physicians (doctors on the "civil surgeons" list) to fail to correctly complete the required report which can cause delays.
