Your husband will either be approved anyway with no problem, or he will get a one year ban and he will have to prove again that he is drug free before the visa will be issued.

Hi Loucel22,

Great to know that my post somehow has given you hope. If youre husband is in full remission and his psych test turns well - you will have no issue at all. My husband only took one test and he has been very proactive in asking the Doctor if everything was okay and if his admission would not affect our visa approval. The doctor was very kind enough to tell him that his result is good and theres no need to worry. If all your documents are in order - you'll get it for sure.

We've secured our IV and were all set to fly by 1st week of July.

Whats your visa type? and can you elaborate more the kind of admission your husband made? Is he in full remission?

HI EVERYONE... im the petitioner of a CR-1/I-130 . since my husband papers are all set and ready for u.s embassy interview at june 4. he decide to go to st.lukes medical exam 2 weeks before his interview in us embassy. When he went there at st.lukes everything is ok everything is NEGATIVE except the psychiatric interview, the doctor asked him if he EVER USE DRUGS (SHABU)????? he said YES and it was 9 yrs ago (2006).....SINCE HE ADMITTED THAT HE USED DRUGS BEFORE ITS THAT AUTOMATICALLY DENIED?......Im so stressed out i cant stop thinking about it

can anybody tell me who has a desame experience like my husband during the medical exam

thank you for whoever sharing thier experience

It is not an automatic denial (and every country is a little different, some embassies are stricter than others), but they probably will want a further psychiatric investigation. What we often see here is a delay of one year, during which the beneficiary has to undergo drug tests a few times to check he remains clear.
