Medical Exams

Scheduling Your Appointment

AFTER YOU RECEIVE YOUR APPOINTMENT LETTER: You must schedule your medical examination at least seven days prior to the date of your visa interview.  The date of your visa interview appears on your appointment letter.  Failure to complete your medical examination well in advance of your visa interview may result in delays with your visa application, so you should be sure to make arrangements to take your exam at the earliest opportunity.

There are three medical facilities authorized to perform examinations for immigrant visas, and you may have your exam done at the location most convenient for you.  You must call ahead to schedule a specific appointment time with the doctor of your choice.
