Medical Questionnaire

[annasherwood 0]

my husband has his medical next week, so we're preparing his medical questionnaire...there's a question asking "have you ever misused or abused drugs?" He has a conviction for possession of cannabis on his police record and a caution for the same, 10 years and 11 years ago respectively...we can't very well say 'no' to the drug question unless there's a chance the embassy will just get a pass/fail on the medical and will never know about it----we don't want to get caught in a lie, but don't want to open a pandora's box here...we're in enough trouble as it is...

has anyone ever said 'yes' to the drug question on the medical questionnaire and what happened????

thanks

Well you should'nt really lie (always a bad move), especially in this case, the drug use is such an issue in this case that a check, to see that the yes box on the form has been ticked is a certainty, in my mind. Thay also test for drugs with the blood sample which is given, so if he is still a user that will be evident anyway.

I'd say admit the drug use, multiple drug convictions means he's in the $hit anyway, and thats what there attention will be on.
