I would imagine the most recent medical will be the one that carries the weight. But you won’t know until the interview

You might have to consider re-locating to Mexico for the next year or so.......many people don't realize just how serious drug use is to US immigration officials.

Oh man, I normally agree with your posts but that’s maybe a little harsh. Possibly he didn’t realize he’d need another medical, or like many we’ve seen here doesn’t realize how seriously US immigration takes marijuana violations. 
of course, intent doesn’t change the outcome which yes, is likely to be another year at home staying clean.

He’s already been through the medical once. He knew EXACTLY what the medical is for, what will cause a denial, etc. I’d have cut him some slack if he was rejected on his first medical because of weed, but the second one? Nah. He was well aware of all the attention paid to substance abuse.

Yep, He didn’t know he had to do a new medical test, they just told him a day before he had to go to the consulate, because they literally call him three days before to fly to Cd. Juarez for an open interview.

Well let us know how it ends up.  Hopefully once he gets here you will AOS in time so he doesn't have to do a medical again.

Well nobody can be certain, the norm would be an extra year plus regular testing, depends on the Doctor's report.

 

Anyway you will know soon, please come back and update us.
