Medical I-693 expired in April
hello,
We have our interview and 3 weeks and my previous lawyer said that I don’t have to do another Medical Exam, because it has to be valid at the moment of filling.
Is that true? Or should I still take a new medical exam and take it with me to the interview?

final decision
Wow! Today marks the end of our process, and it's just incredible! It only took 91 days for the total approval of our I-765, I-130, and I-485 forms. The whole process was unbelievably fast! We had our interview on May 5th, and the same day, the officer let us know that everything was going to be approved. I'm so incredibly happy and thankful to God and to life for this amazing opportunity!"

Form I-824 for derivatives abroad. Does it help to expedite the case requesting for an in person appointment?
Hi Lawfully family, I would like to ask if you guys recommend trying an in person appointment at USCIS to ask to my son’s I-824 be expedited. We are living apart for almost 5 years since I moved to the united states and lived an abusive relationship. It wasn’t easy and it’s really hard not being able to watch him grow, besides some urgent matters: he self-harmed a little while ago, upset for being apart from me and because the situation with his father in Brazil it’s difficult. Please give me some advice to bring him sooner! I got my green card on February and applied for his I-824 right away… Thank you so much!
