What Happens at an Immigration Medical Exam

An immigration medical exam is an important step of immigration process and is required for every individual seeking a permanent resident (green card) status. The appointment is a routine part of the process to ensure public safety and remove the grounds for inadmissibility for intending immigrants. The exam must to be completed by a government- authorized doctor and consist of the following parts: 

  • A review of your medical history and immunization records
  • A physical and mental evaluation
  • Drug and alcohol screening
  • Tests for various diseases and illnesses, including blood and urine tests to screen for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea and Tuberculosis

The immigration medical examination is not a complete physical examination. The purpose is to screen for certain medical conditions relevant to U.S. immigration law. The U.S. government doesn’t require the doctor to evaluate you for any conditions except those the U.S. Public Health Service specifies for U.S. immigration purposes. Likewise, the government doesn’t require the doctor to provide you with diagnosis or treatment even if he or she discovers other issues related to your health. This examination is not a substitute for a full physical examination, consultation, diagnosis, or treatment by your primary health care provider.

What to Take to your Medical Exam

In preparation for the medical examination, you will need to take several items. Below, is a list of items you need to take to an immigration medical exam:

  • Valid passport or other government-issued photo identification

  • Certificate of clearance signed by a doctor or public health official, proving that you were adequately treated if you have the following conditions:
    • if you have had syphilis
    • If you have a history of harmful or violent behavior resulting in injury to people or animals, information that will allow the doctor to determine whether the behavior was related to a psychiatric or medical problem, or to drug or alcohol use
