I have been using hashish (its the close cousin of marijuana, used in Asia) from 2-3 years. I didn't know that it was required to pass the drug test before your visa. I know for sure it will show up in my medical test. My medical was last week and my interview in next month (November 2019). So I have two options
1) Appear in interview and admit it. They will ban me for 1 year and I have to pass multiple drug tests in this year etc.
2) I should miss the interview get clean and after 6 months this medical test will be null and void. I will reschedule the interview after 6 months with new medical test.

 

Which option should I choose? Is it worth it to take risk of six months?

I am in process of CR1 visa. Please show me your courtesy and guide me. I am very tensed right now please.

They will ask about use even if you delay it and probably get the ban anyway.

Only legal option would be #1.

You only have one option, tell the truth.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Mmm I don't know if you understand how a Embassy works but is not like you put in the second option.  

 

You can not tell them to pause your case and wait you for 6 months. 

 

If you don't appear in your interview probably they will send you a message and close your case.

 

Just a question, in the DS-260 what was your answer for this question:

 

"Are you or have you ever been a drug abuser or addict?'."
