Clients in Whitehall come to our Morse Road office when they need N-648 (Medical Certification for Disability Exceptions) prepared correctly the first time. We have helped hundreds of Central Ohio immigrants navigate USCIS applications since 2014 — with flat fees, no surprises, and service in Somali, Arabic, and English.

Service is provided at our Columbus office (3185 Morse Rd, Ste 15). We do not operate a separate staffed office in Whitehall.
What Form N-648 is for
Completed by a licensed medical professional for naturalization applicants seeking English or civics test exceptions.
Medical Certification for Disability Exceptions (N-648) is generally filed by lawful permanent residents and others pursuing U.S. citizenship or citizenship documents. Whether this form fits your situation depends on your specific facts, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official USCIS page before you file.

Fees and official sources
USCIS filing fees change periodically and vary by category, age, and filing method. We do not quote government fees from memory. Always verify the current N-648 filing fee, payment method, and any form-specific fee rules on the official USCIS page before you submit.
Processing times for N-648 vary widely by service center, workload, and case complexity, and they change month to month. Check current estimates with the USCIS processing-times tool and your receipt notice rather than relying on a fixed number. Filing a complete, well-organized packet is the best way to avoid Requests for Evidence that add delay.
USCIS government fees are separate from Asal preparation fees. Verify current fees on USCIS.gov.
