Drug Use

My SO is about to schedule his medical. He smokes hash. Is this something that will effect his medical report? Are they intrusive in this aspect of the medical ?

No need Drug Addict here, have already more than enough in this country.

Hope he fails the EXAM.

Thank you for all the wonderful advice and good wishes

LOL, I didn't say he was a drug addict by the way. He's an occasional hash smoker. I am sure there are many people that are occasional drinkers, does that make them alcoholics?!

No need to keep this thread going, if this is the direction it's going to take!

I don't think she would have backed down so easily were she a troll, IMHO.

Without judging and to answer your question, yes and yes! Yes, they do test for drugs during the medical exam and the visa can be denied on the basis of a failed medical exam because of drug use.

Drugs that are illegal in the U.S. are tested for in the alien fiancé(e)’s body at the medical exam. Be aware that among a number of medical problems that can render the alien fiancé “inadmissible”, testing positive for a controlled substance can render the alien inadmissible for up to three (3) years.

Yes....they are intrusive in this aspect of the medical because drugs are illegal in the US.

Thank you for you're CIVIL answer. Of course I figured that, I just wanted to get the facts. I didn't know that people would be so rude about answering my question, but Thank you!

He will be asked about drug use. Being what you call a "occasional drug user" [insert irony here] just doesn't fly. In case you didn't know, hash is an illegal substance - and drug abuse is grounds for inadmissibility.

Yes they will ask about drug use. They also take blood, some of which can be used for drug testing, though what is tested for sees to depend on the country, as well as the individual beneficiary.
