Can't you set up so son gets tested every 3-6 months until 6/29/2012 and show up at the next appt with the evidence he's been clean for that period?

Im not sure, but i believe you have to wait for the year. Refile and pay teh fees again, sorry this happen to you and your family. I know you dont want to leave a child behind. The bright side is it's only a year, some people had to endure 3 years. best Wishes

So sorry to hear that, Stacy -

I think that the key to it is going to be timing - It says if the last refusal was less than 1 year ago, they schedule a new medical and he can get the interview - If it was more than 1 year ago, then you have to refile and go through all of that - He's coming on a derivative visa to your K1, right? So if you can time it right and get his interview date after June 29 and before Aug. 4th, he should be able to get the visa without having to refile it -

I think that to schedule the interview for the derivative visa, you just email the embassy with the case # and information and request an interview date.

Do you have someone he can stay with? I hope he learned his lesson (although the hard way)

Not enough information. Did YOU obtain a visa? Which one and when? Did you use a fiancee or spouse visa to enter the USA already?

See how easy that was. If you're going to USE those visas and leave the prodigal son behind then he can simply follow to join as the his eligibility date is less than a year from your issue date. If you want help, expect to answer questions. People volunteer their time here. Make it easy for those who are helping, not easy on yourself.
