USCIS memo extends the validity of Form I-693

Jan 06, 2010

In a memorandum by Donald Neufeld, Acting Associate Director, dated December 30, 2009, the validity of civil surgeon endorsements on Form I-693 for adjustment of status application is temporarily extended. Due to the continuing backlog of some adjustment 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.
