ABOUT IMG MEMO

The memo you wish someone had sent you.

International medical graduates walk one of the longest, most rule-heavy paths in medicine: exams, certification, the Match, visas and licensing, often from another country and without a guide who has done it. IMG Memo exists so you hear what matters for your stage, in time to act on it.

How a memo comes together

We watch the official sources

ECFMG, NRMP, ERAS, USCIS, the State Department and state medical boards, plus the programs and news that affect IMGs.

We match it to your stage

A change that matters to someone applying to the Match goes to them, not to everyone. You tell us your stage once, and you can change it anytime.

We link the source

Every memo points to the official page behind it, so you can check the details yourself before you decide.

What IMG Memo isn't

IMG Memo is general information, not legal, immigration or medical advice. Rules and deadlines change, and every case is different. For decisions about your visa, status or license, confirm with the official office or a qualified immigration attorney.
