Immigration Physicals in Huntington, NY
An immigration physical, also known as a green card medical exam or Form I-693, is a crucial step in the process of obtaining permanent residency or a green card in the United States. This comprehensive medical examination is required by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to ensure that individuals seeking to immigrate to the United States do not pose a public health risk and meet certain health-related standards. At PrimeUC Urgent Care, we understand the importance of completing your immigration physical promptly and accurately. Our experienced healthcare professionals are well-versed in the requirements set forth by the USCIS and are dedicated to providing a smooth and efficient process for our patients.
During an immigration physical, our medical team will review your medical history, conduct a thorough physical examination, and perform various tests to assess your overall health. The main components of an immigration physical include:

Once your immigration physical is complete, our healthcare provider will fill out the required Form I-693 and seal it in an envelope. You will then submit this sealed envelope to the USCIS along with your green card application.

- Applying for a green card from within the United States (adjustment of status)
