Information for Civil Surgeons
For applicants who are diagnosed with TB infection, civil surgeons
must:
Inform such applicants that their TB infection diagnosis has been reported to the local health department.
Explain to the applicant that follow-up treatment for TB infection is important to prevent TB disease.
Complete and give the I-693 to the applicant unless diagnosed with TB disease or possible TB disease. Treatment for TB infection is not required in order to continue the status adjustment process.
For TB disease, applicants are given a designation on their I-693, and the status adjustment process is
stalled until treatment has been completed.
