NEED HONEST ANSWER

[Prayer123456789 0]

Ok well im glad i found this website, i have a few questions and need some honest answers and hopefully people with expierence, i am up for my medical soon i have lived in the states for a long time now, ive always gone to Doctors here and there, i never really had a specific DR. when i was 17 i did something really dumb and to get attention i cut my wrist, my parents took me to the emergency room, and they did the whole 9 yards and made me take everything off and put on this funny robes and told me i would be sent to a special hospital if my parents said ok to it, once i heard that i explained to my mom that i did it out of fustration and attention i never truly intended to kill myself or anything like that, so she took me back under her custody, after that i saw a psychologist for a bit, and now i see another one from time to time, im 20 now and i go to college and have a good life without any problems, also when i was younger i experimented with marijuana once, and once i did coke, only once, when i use to go to the DR.'s i use to feel like such goody two shoes to say i just tried it once so i use to tell them i did marijuana a bunch of times, i ask myself why i was so stupid, but yea i was. im so scared that these two things will come back, and my main question is, when i go to the medical, will they in any way check with DR.s i have used, like is there a way that they can get in contact with those hospitals and all the dr.s who treated me, or is everything taken straight from my honesty?, - hopefully someone will answer thank you

Could you take a few minutes and update your timeline? I don't know what you're filing for. This question is in Adjustment of Status discussion thread, but by the sounds of it, you're worried about your medical exam in your country of origin for a K visa? Sorry if I"m not understanding this. Are you the US Citizen or the beneficiary? I'm sure someone will be able to answer your questions, if we know what you're applying for, and where you are in the process.

They do not contact any of the past doctors you have used. They do a medical exam to make sure you dont have any diseases that spread to others, and the necessary immunization shots.

Just answer the questions they ask you, and dont go into too much depth about your past... meaning dont divuldge more information than need be and you'll be fine.

Agreed. Please clarify your situation!

I wouldn't recommend lying to the doctors who give you the medical exam (but you don't need to tell them what they don't ask, either). From what I've read on here, it shouldn't result in a denial unless you have a problem currently. A couple things that have been followed by treatment and recovery shouldn't be a big deal. (not speaking from personal experience)

There have been a couple of posters here who have been denied admitting to a one time or occasional drug use many years ago. I don't know if a waiver can be filed or a ban occurs.

Tell the truth if asked.

Just in case contact a qualified immigration attorney for a consultation in regards to this issue.

I think the OP is adjusting their status (as they mentioned they're been in the States for a while). However, I could be completely wrong...so I think we do need some more info about your timeline or visa information, OP. The more we know, the more we can help.

thanks for the responds, this is it, my mom filed for I-130 back in 98 when the 245i was on, through her brother, we have been out of status, all this time, and if anyone is in my shoes they truly know how hard it is, i came here when i was only 3 so this is my country, i finally have this chance to adjust my status throught my moms petition, but these two things worry me, One thing i do not understand is that when i read the medical exam description, it said that other than experimental would not matter, yes i experimented with marijuan a few times prob 4 at the most, but than again OMOBA says that some posters have been denied for use of drugs atleast once, idk what to do, i havent done any drugs in a long time, when i did i was young and dumb, now i am grown and have a good plan and goals for my future, our priority date is not current yet but seems like i will be sometimes in may-july, its jan of 98, please anyone who can give me more advice i am more than happy to take it

How old are you?

20 now

Nobody checks with other doctors.

Discussion of mental issues with the dr at your medical can be a cause of denial

Discussion of past drug use with the dr at your medical can be a cause of denail

With that said, wish you the best and happy new year
