Whether or not he has to do the sputum test will depend on the results of his X-ray. Smoking does not automatically mean he will have the sputum test.

No, they only check if you have communicable disease.. Like tuberculosis.. If they find a spot or blur on the lungs that's the time they will do sputum to check for Tuberculosis.. there's no problem with smoking and drinking, doctor may ask about it as part of your history but just be honest to answer

Nope not an issue. Relax, drinking and smoking are not concerns relating to TB.

Relax. They don't care about your drinking and smoking habits. So, sit back, light up a good Cuban Cigar and poor some good Tennessee Whiskey and relax.
