Medical Exam Validity
Hi All,

I will have my interview sometime soon (haven't received the official notice with the date yet) and would like to know if it is advisable to do my medical exams again. It was done September 2017 and I filed March 2018. My lawyer said that medical exams are valid for 1 year from the date they are taken. However, USCIS website says that they are valid for one year from the date of submission. Here is the info I copied from USCIS website:

An officer may determine that the applicant has met the burden of proof required to establish that he or she is free from a medical condition that would render the applicant inadmissible if all of the following criteria are met:

•The medical exam was performed by a USCIS-designated civil surgeon in accordance with HHS regulations;

•The medical examination report was properly completed; [21]

•The medical examination report was submitted to USCIS less than one year after completion of the examination;[22]

•The benefit application [23] is adjudicated no more than one year after the date the medical examination report was submitted to USCIS; [24] and

•The medical examination report establishes that the applicant does not have a Class A medical condition and has complied with the vaccination requirements or is granted a waiver. [25]

My lawyer said this is old information. Has anyone gone through similar experience?

Thanks for your help!
