June 9, 2026The Department of State (DOS) issued a notice of proposed revisions to several forms (Forms DS-2054, DS-3025, DS-3026, DS-3030, and DS-7794) used by panel physicians to record the medical information of noncitizens seeking entry to the United States. The forms collect medical information used to determine whether an applicant has a medical or other condition affecting his or her eligibility for a visa or immigration benefit. The information requested includes results of tests required for the diagnosis of diseases identified as communicable diseases of public health significance, and other evaluations used to confirm a medical eligibility under INA § 212(a)(1) or public charge ineligibility under INA § 212(a)(4).
DOS states that the information is necessary to protect public health and assess applicants' eligibility for immigration benefits. Comments are due August 10, 2026.

2026.08.04 AILA Comment on DOS Public Notice 13039
The American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) submitted comments opposing DOS's proposed revisions to immigration medical examination forms, arguing that the changes improperly expand the forms' purpose beyond health-related inadmissibility under INA § 212(a) to support public charge determinations. AILA urged DOS to clarify or remove the public charge language, or in the alternative, to specify the fields that will be used for public charge analysis. AILA also advocated for DOS to clarify which applicants would be subject to the revised requirements, justify the expanded reporting burden, limit disclosure of applicants' medical information for immigration enforcement purposes, and ensure applicants can access their own medical records.
