Immigration Medical Examinations
Most applicants for adjustment of status are required to have a medical
examination. The medical examination must be conducted by a civil surgeon who
has been designated by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Medical
examinations are needed for adjustment of status cases (Form I-485) and
requests for V nonimmigrant status (Form I-539).
