01/13/2010 Entry: "USCIS Memo on Extension of Validity of Medical Certifications on Form I-693"

This December 30, 2009, memorandum from Donald Neufeld, Acting Associate Director of Domestic Operations, USCIS, temporarily extends the validity of civil surgeon endorsements on Form I-693 for adjustment of status applicants.

Due to the continuing backlog of some adjustment of status applications, the validity of the civil surgeon’s endorsement on Form I-693, when submitted in support of an adjustment of status application, is extended until the time of adjustment if no Class A or Class B medical condition is certified by the civil surgeon in section 2, 3 or 4 of Part 2 of the Form I-693. A Form I-693 remains valid until the time of adjustment even if section 6 of Part 2 shows a Class B medical condition other than those addressed in section 2, 3 or 4. This policy will be in effect until January 1, 2011.
