Thank you for sharing this story. I’m in a similar situation where my fiancé is currently detoxing. I also didn’t realize he would be tested for weed until the day we were finally able to schedule his interview and move forward with scheduling the medical and I began to learn about it. Smh, almost tragically too late. But in time for me to cancel his appointment so we can reschedule when he’s clean. 
 

he stopped smoking only about 8 days ago but earlier this week he went to his doctor and told him wah gwan, so his doc gave him a water pill and multivitamin to cleanse. His doc also scheduled him for a practice drug test in a couple weeks so we can see if it’s worked. If so we will move forward trying to reschedule his interview and medical right away!

 

my question for you is: did they ask your hubby “have you EVER smoked before?” And if so, what did he say??

at this point I’m confident he will test negative when he goes in but that question is really looming over me. 
 

ive heard lots of things: ALWAYS be honest (which can result in a ban), and NEVER admit to marijuana use (which can have more severe repercussions if they decide that’s a lie) ... but you got through it! So what did he say?

 

congrats btw I’m so happy he passed and gets to join you here soon! Blessings! 

 

Hey there is a medical form you fill out before hand and it ask separately if you smoke marijuana and if you smoke tobacco. We put no for smoking marijuana. When asked at the doctors office if he smokes he said no.

Basically say no, always say no to drugs like Unknown seh. There are clinics that do drug test. Let him go get one done to make sure he’s clean before going in. That way you fully confident when medical time comes around.

Yea but they better make sure they ain't no trace of weed in his blood or else that's a lie and if you lie to them .. that's where it all gose side ways .. so if they are traces of marijuana in his system just tell them you tried it once couple months ago or something like that

True true. Let me clear it up from now, I’m not telling anyone to go say no. It is a risk to say no and end up having it in your system. Which is why I say get drug tested before hand so you already know what’s up. I literally called a Clinic in Kingston to get my husband one when I thought the at home drug kits I bought was not going to come in time. The lady said it was like 3-4 grand for it. We end up not doing it still. 
 

But to answer the person question from earlier, my husband said no. I told him if the doctor ask if he smokes, to say no. If the doctor ask you have you ever smoked before, say “I tried it once before but nothing that became apart of my life style”. That’s what I told him to say. Luckily the doctor just ask him if he smokes and that’s it.

I listened to the facebook live but didnt get any clarification on when they will start scheduling for Sept DQs. I only heard that they were done with the cancelled cases.

 

Anyone else got anything different from the conversation?

 

DQ 9/1 still at NVC

Happy Friday everyone. My case was updated to Ready (expedite request was approved). D/Q 9/2. Does anyone know what the process is from here? I’m trying to get an idea of the timeline as I’m preparing to travel with our baby twins for the interview. 
 

Have a great weekend everyone.

Congratulations. I listened to the live on Wednesday. And the one thing i took from it is if you are going for an interview, you must be in the country and have quarantined 14 days prior if you are coming from another country. They said they will have to turn you away if not. Just make sure you alot time for this.

Thankyou! Yes I got that too. I’m going to book our flights to leave as soon as we know and schedule hopefully within 2-3 weeks of arriving to allow for quarantine. This has been a long process (5 trips with my Twincesses so far) and we don’t plan to come home without hubby lol.

My interview went well on the 18 of December however, my visa status says refused, the officer told me that everything was ok but because my medical was not yet at the embassy it would take until the middle of January for me to get my visa in hand. My case was expedited therefore my medical was done like the day before my interview. OH i didnt get any 221g paper either.
