Frequently Asked Questions
Is Evergreen experienced in doing these exams?
Yes, our Civil Surgeon has completed more than 1,000 immigration medical exams over the last 3 years!
Does it matter if visit 1 is in-person, over the phone, by email, or via video?
No it does not, so please choose whichever visit type you are most comfortable with. However, some customers prefer the phone/email option because it allows us to initiate the process that very same day.
Can I bring blood test results from my doctor?
No, USCIS requires that the Civil Surgeon order these tests on your behalf.
Will I need a chest X-ray?
Less than 15% of patients require a chest X-ray. The need for an X-ray is based on the blood test results, and costs an additional $50.
What vaccines are required, and where can I get them?
Vaccine requirements vary by age of the applicant and month of the year. USCIS guidelines for vaccines change frequently, and we will discuss the most current requirements at visit #1. Once a decision is made, we suggest going to your PCP, or making an appointment at a local pharmacy.
Do I need to get all the vaccines?
We strongly recommend getting the required vaccines, as USCIS will reject your application if the vaccines are incomplete. However, Evergreen can provide a waiver for Varicella and MMR if a woman is pregnant or may become pregnant in the next 3 months.
How quickly can you complete my packet?
About 1 week total, sometimes less! We will order your lab tests at Visit 1, and these can be completed at any Quest Diagnostics center, including the one right by our office. We can complete Part 2 as soon as Quest delivers your results.
Does insurance cover these Immigration visits?
Unfortunately no, the USCIS process is not covered by health insurance. However, your private health insurance often covers the cost of vaccines required for the process.
