Instructions after blue paper for drugs

[Myraw1109 0]

My husband was given a 1 year hold due to drugs. He was given a blue paper with a date to return. I haven't received any instructions on what to do or take. Do i just schedule the med exam & show up to the consulate on the date printed or do i have to refile?

Get him in some kind of rehab even if he's not doing drugs then email the

consulate 90 days before the yr expires for new medical & interview appts

It would be helpful if you could complete a timeline and correct your profile information. You filed for AOS and he was given a blue paper for a one year hold? A hold from what if he is here in the USA? What consulate?

Obviously he's in CA so schedule the

appts close to one year, some rehab is

a good idea.

The fact that the OP said "consulate" doesn't make sense if he's in CA.

If he got a "one year hold" from filing for AOS, that would be the first post I've ever seen on that. A year hold from what? getting a greencard? So he should just live here illegally for a year and the government would be ok with that? doubtful but hey I learn new things everyday in this immigration forum.

My fiance was given a one year ban for controlled substance. He never did a day in rehab. He did do a couple random drug tests on his own at a private clinic. Consulate did not require this.

Cant say anything about location but its always a wise idea if not working

with a professional to back up things with some rehab, some do others don't ,

no 2 cases are ever the same

OP no reason to refile
