I had my medical today at Andrews Memorial Hospital in Kingston. It was an ALL-DAY process! I've detailed the process below, but here's the summary: Carry a good book, a snack and a drink/water.

Ok, u will soon get your appointment letter. We had sent documents on the 2nd of December 2019, then on January 1st, we got email to say that all documents were received and by the 6th of January we got the appointment letter for interview, that same day I went online Andrews medical So they could set an appointment before my interview.

Hello all I received this email when I scheduled my interview. 

 

I know to bring the appointment letter but what is the confirmation letter they mention? I never received an email from the embassy

I meant my medical 

A confirmation letter would be what you would have gotten if it was a k1 or fiancé visa Category. Mine was F2b so what I had was the interview letter. Therefore if your not in K1 or fiancé visa category then you don’t have/need a confirmation.

Hey I haven’t received a notices yet of my fiancé medical date as yet but quick question are they still saying that they need to see a  psychiatrist if they have a pass of smoking  marijuana ?....... also if anyone here ever filed a k1 how long after you make your interview appointment they schedule your medical ?? 

Hey, how did it work out? My fiance smokes and I'm wondering if any ganja smokers have been permitted through the k1 visa process. Thanks.

He has to prove that he has been clean and sober for one year.  Otherwise he is subject to a one year ban

He had to prove that he had BEEN clean and sober for a year already? If so, how did he prove it? Or he had to begin one year of sobriety starting at the medical exam and if he failed at staying clean, then would be banned for another year? 

Thanks for reply!

He proves sobriety by drug testing every 3 months.  Also, the MD knows that he smokes when doing medical exam.  If he fails drug test, then he will have a one year ban and will have to see psychiatrist and have drug testing every 3 months for a year.
