Hi everyone...Fady had been in AP for over a month now. I decided to write the embassy last night to ask them how much longer he would be in AP and how come our case status didn't show up on the embassy website. This was their reply:

Thank you for your e-mail message.

Please note that Mr. Fadel Allah was found inadmissible for one year under section 212(a)(1)(A)(iv) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. During his year of inadmissibility, we will contact Mr. Fadel Allah and request random tests.

We hope the above information is helpful.

Regards,

Consular Section

U.S. Embassy, Cairo

Sounds like someone was caught with drugs in their system. They are submitting random testing and hes not allowed to enter for 1 year. Generally means he popped positive for drug useage.

Thank you for your replies. That link was helpful. Ok now what? So my guy is doing drugs and I didn't know about it? Is there anyway that the embassy would tell me his drug test results? They made him take two. He told me that they were negative. I have no idea what to believe.

Not much you can do now because he has to wait 1 full year and be tested randomly during that time for drug usage.

Not sure if the embassy will out right tell you as you are not married. But seems to me hes keeping secrets from you that you should know about. Time for a serious chat with him!

212 paper (1) Health-related grounds.-

(A) In general.-Any alien-

(iv) who is determined (in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of Health and Human Services) to be a drug abuser or addict, is inadmissible.

Yes thank you...but if he has been lying for a whole 2 years, whats the point of a serious chat? he will just tell me more lies! I don't know what to believe. Do I believe the embassy or Fady? Would the embassy only do this if the drug results were positive? He told me that both times they were negative. He told me that the hospital only gives patients the test results if they are negative and if its positive, the hospital itself will send the results to the embassy. So he said he was negative the two times. What should I believe? Is it possible that the embassy did this because he looked so tired the mornign of his interview and they assumed he was on drugs? Is it possible for this to be a mistake and that he really isnt a drug user? Thanks for the replies!

[Inky 1,110]

No because they do not just throw drug abuse around like its a game. They test for drugs and if it shows positive the visa is rejected.

You can certainly try emailing the embassy again and requesting more information on it but you have to ask them specific questions to get specific answers from them. They could still refuse to answer the drug type though. You can also see if he can get proof for you from the medical as to the drug test results.

[Harpa Timsah 13,258]

No, it is not possible that they made a mistake or falsely accused him because he was "tired". The embassies must follow the law scrupulously and have proof to back up their actions. His tests were positive and he lied to you. You should believe the embassy. Why did he have a drug test two times anyway?

[Kristi & Fady 0]

He had the drug test done twice because I'm guessing the original one was negative, but when he was at his interview, the consular thought he looked like he was on drugs. So they told him he had to have another drug test. So he did the second test and now we get this answer. So wow...

[Ayman___ 92]

I'm so sorry to hear about that I don't know what to say but I know the embassy will not lie about that.It's sad If he was using any drugs while doing the papers besides drugs are not good for you and Illegal.That makes them reject him.Sorry again I hope and pray for you.....Good luck ,Rina

You guess or you know it was negative? did he look tired as you first said or did he look like he was on drugs? Stick with one thing, the truth, don't change it to suit the issue.

This is also why I said to have a SERIOUS talk with him. If you love him and you have been with him for 2 years+ then a serious talk is a good thing. If you don't think a serious talk is worth it then why go through all the wait and paying money for this for nothing?

I would think that if the first was negative then they would NOT do a follow-up test. You do follow-ups if the first is positive.

I guess it was negative because I'm only telling you what he told me. But if the embassy is denying us for drug abuse, then maybe he has been lying! I didn't see him on webcam before or after his interview. I know he was up for 18 hours and then had only 2 hours of sleep before the interview. He waited at the embassy for 4 hours. So I can imagine he would look tired and look messed up. Of course I dont know. Im in America and he is in Egypt. In the 2 years, I've seen him 3 times. He seemed normal to me! I'm not changing anything to suit the issue. I'm just trying to figure out what is true and accurate and what is a lie. This is a complete shock to me so before I end the 2 year relationship, I want to make sure the embassy really did have a positive drug test.

[LIFE'SJOURNEY 970]

The embassy didn't test him, the medical doctor tested him. The embassy only got the results. So now you know the outcome of his medical, what do you want to do next?

He was tested and questioned at his medical regarding his drug use, so there was more than just a random drug test done. Do you expect a drug usage to tell you the truth?

Good luck on whatever decision you take in going forward.
