Communicating with ECFMG
Always include your USMLE/ECFMG Identification Number, if one has been assigned, when communicating with ECFMG. If you forget or lose your number, you can obtain it by accessing the Interactive Web Application (IWA).
To protect the privacy of applicants, ECFMG will e-mail applicant-specific information only to the e-mail address in the applicant’s ECFMG record. If your e-mail inquiry requires a specific response, you must send your inquiry from the e-mail address in your ECFMG record.
ECFMG will not accept letters or other deliveries that arrive with postage or other fees due.
