Domestic Medical Screening

• After the Private Sponsor Group completes the Welcome Corps Refugee Health Assessment Request Form, the Office of Global Michigan sends the request to the appropriate clinic. Within 5-7 days, the sponsor receives an email confirming the clinic they have been referred to. The clinic then contacts the sponsor directly within another 5-7 days to finalize scheduling and requests additional information, as the form does not collect specific health or identifying info about the newcomer.

For any questions on this process, Private Sponsor Groups can reach out to welcomecorps@zamaninternational.org and LEO-RefugeeServices@michigan.gov.
