On December 9, 2024, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) reminded stakeholders that a Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, that is properly completed and signed by a civil surgeon on or after November 1, 2023, does not expire and may be used indefinitely as evidence.
USCIS said this means that “if you receive a Request for Evidence for Form I-693 for your pending Form
I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, you must provide the Form I-693, even if the visa has retrogressed.”
