USCIS Temporarily Waives 60-Day Rule for Civil Surgeon Signatures

 

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is temporarily waiving the requirement that the civil surgeon (a physician designated by USCIS) sign Form I-693 (“Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record’), within 60 days before submission of the application to register permanent residence or adjust status (Form I-485), until Sept. 30, 2022.

This temporary waiver will benefit many applicants who have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and related processing delays, which have sometimes caused delays in completing the immigration medical examination. This temporary waiver allows applicants to submit their underlying applications with a completed Form I-693, even if the civil surgeon signed more than 60 days in advance.
