K1 visa refused Ciudad Juarez

[aaa1234 2]

Fiance was denied his k1 visa for admitting to having used drugs in the past (marijuana). Fiance was told he can obtain an another medical exam January 2020. Can anyone with a similar experience let me know what happens after? What do we have to do? Anything I need to submit? Would fiance have another interview or just the medical exam? 

Thank you

Did they refuse it or give him a 221(g)?

 

If it is a 221(g), just wait it out.  Fortunately he wasn't told to wait a year.

He was not given a 221(g). He was given a blue sheet of paper saying to return January 2020 for a new medical exam to prove that he is "clean"

Ok  then he just stays clean and waits.

Is it technically considered a 6 month ban?

Would he have another consulate interview?

No it is just from the clinic.  Once they clear him medically the consulate should not have an issue with that on the petition.

You can call it anything you want but you have to sit and wait the 6 months out and the retake the medical to prove he is not a habitual user. If he had admitted it during the first exam then he would have had some extra steps to take and probably be on his way to a visa. He has to be truthful every step of the way. Your lucky you get to do this in 6 months.

Would he just send the results in? Or take them to the consulate personally?

I don't know.   The instructions should be on the blue sheet.

Yes we are very lucky that it's only 6 months. Do you know if he needs to wait to be scheduled a new interview after the medical exam?

Ditto what Paul & Mary said.

No instructions on blue sheet. I've read several post about some people sending/taking results to the consulate personally as well as someone who said they had to wait for another interview to be scheduled. However those posts we're 2-3 years ago.

Can you post the sheet he was given and shade out your private infos

I have the same issue. Except for my fiancé can’t take the exam til July 2020... All it says on the form is that he can return to get the medical exam and that there is no waiver for this. And for more info to go to USCIS.gov. I am very lost on what to do. How does this process work? He goes back in a year to get tested and then does he get a visa? Do we have to reapply? Should we just get married and file for a CR-1?
