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?

I am finally back with a very GREAT NEWS and UPDATE!

It took a while to complete all our documents as my NBI Clearance has a remark of 'No Criminal Record'.

Embassy has received the explanation letter from NBI last Friday 09Apr2015 - and after checking our status in CEAC today - visas are already ISSUED!!!

Just waiting for the delivery of our passports!

Only shows and proves that admission of past drug use is not an automatic ground for visa denial!

Cheers to all aspirants!

I just wish to share this with all of you especially to those applicants who are about to undergo their medical at St. Lukes Clinic in Manila.

My husband is under F4 (Brother of a U.S. Citizen) and me (spouse) and our 2 children are derivatives.

We are set to be interviewed 3rd week of this month.

We are currently based in Singapore and went home to accomplish this requirement.

We had our medical this week. All went well except that my husband has admitted in good faith that he has tried marijuana and shabu about 17 years ago during his younger years. I have been able to read all the threads about admission of past drug use (and I am now fully aware of the negative consequences). Somehow just praying that things will turn around during the interview. Miracle does happen sometimes:)

My husband is all clear except of him being unaware of the complications of his admission.

He has finished his physc evaluation yesterday. I know that the chance of getting our visa approved is very slim now after waiting for more than 24 years before his priority date becomes current. I know consul will take each case differently.

I'm all done thinking about the possibilities and just focus on trusting God's will - whether US is for us or not.

We have a great life in Singapore and this is just an added bonus if we can secure an immigrant visa.

If anyone can share a positive story about approval of visa despite admission of past drug use - would be highly appreciated.

For the benefits of those who are in the same situation as mine - I will continue to update this thread with the result after our interview.

All the best to all immigrant visa aspirants!

I will. Its valuable to share this journey with all of you.

I hope its as easy as that which is contrary to the threads and stories I've read. Thanks for the encouragement. My brother-in-law who petitioned my hubby is currently in the Philippines for a 3weeks vacay. They will meet after his stay in Boracay and hopefully he can be with us during the interview. We can only pray that the consul will give decision in our favor since he would know that were currently living and working in Singapore and aint possible to do drugs here.

Hi Jawaree,

My husband is the principal applicant and we are only the additional derivative beneficiaries. If his visa is denied - so we are. Tough.

We can only pray that the consul will reconsider or the most give us a 1 year ban.
