 |
|
| Does anyone know if they screen you for STD's during your physical for an E2 visa? I like to have myself tested at least once a year to be on the safe side and I thought this year I'll just wait until it's time to renew my visa if they're going to do me the favor anyway. |

Um...if it's positive, you're not going to get an E-2 visa.  |

| Which is another good reason to ask; do they or don't they? You didn't answer my question. |

As far as i know, they only test for TB, HIV and marijuana use.
I was told this by an immigration official, but if you think you might have an STD I would get it checked and treated before taking the medical exam. |

| I have no reason to suspect that I have anything. I just wanted to know if that's a standard part of the physical since, as I said, I like to get tested at least annually anyway. |
