Re: medical examination for US visa
Hi there:
I will withdraw my comparison with Marie723 -- not once did she express a profanity. I do note that he smoked the MJ, it was he who asked the question, and it was he who set it up to receive e-mail alerts.
Every so often, I see a person who causes me to feel that I hope he is denied the visa. [When that person is my client, I am happy for a successful representation, but as a taxpayer, I'm annoyed at the incompetence of the government].

There was a lovely story yesterday about a local PD who is assigned to the death penalty cases.. he used to be a DA too. He's had 2 cases over the years that got the death penalty, and it breaks his heart. He has no illusions about his clients, but he notes that we do have a 'life without parole' option here as well.
Attorneys must be able to answer these questions for people privately? For their usual consultation fee of course.

Re: medical examination for US visa
Are you sure you're talking about the same medical?
How did they screen you for HIV and other diseases then? A blood test is one thing you can be sure to udergo at the medical.

Hmmm. Geez - I lied - sorry. I completely forgot! I already had recent blood results to indicate HIV status, MMR titres etc
My HIV status was re-checked. I know that no utox or drug screen was done....cos I didn't provide a urine sample, and I saw/held/handed over the blood test order form
(This was all for AOS from H4.)

It was done inside of the US. Probably makes a difference. Once you're in, they change things a bit.

Re: medical examination for US visa
Although the OP refers to applying for "a visa", but doesn't indicate which one. (Presumably a marriage-related one due to the post's location.) I didn't need any medical for the H4.

Re: medical examination for US visa
If that were the case, I'd expect it to turn up on this board occasionally, but I do not recall it having done so. The only ones that come to mind here are where the person firstly admitted it to the doctor, not where the doctor determined it by means of initial standard testing.

I know you like a large sample size.

Re: medical examination for US visa
So, not clear, is it a lifetime ban or a 3-year ban?
