Cool Weed Be Denied Visa??????

Anyone out there have any idea how long weed stays in the system?? We have been asked for medicals but had a good laugh a few weeks ago (if you know what I mean ) and bit scared they will pick up on it!! :scared:

Don`t want a 30 minute howling session to spoil our chances!

Do you think DIMIA have a sense of humour????

The medicals dont entail dope tests. Its a chest xray, blood tests for AIDS and Hepatitus, a quick medical (sight, hearing, weight, feel for hernias etc) and thats it.

Unless your seriously ill or appear to have a leg missing or something that would affect your chances of finding work in Oz or be a drain on the health system in oz you pass the medical.

Cheers for that, we can stop worrying.
p.s. how do you put the ticker factory bit on as we are 9 months off as well....medicals permitting obviously.
p.p.s I'll make sure I take my prosthetic leg along to the medical with me, they may not notice

Customs at the airport will, right up until their dog sits down beside you....

One time through Brisbane airport, I had my laptop swabbed

It got a bit scary when the woman who tested the swab came back and announced "Positive for ephidrine, but below the limit"

I was thinking "What??????????" when the customs guy going through my suitace said to her "Well, thats you isnt it!"

Seems she had a cold or something..
