Question About Former Medical Marijuana User

Do they ask about past medical marijuana use on the long form? I know they ask about any current meds or herbal remedies and ask about any illegal substances over the last 2 years (I think) but I didn’t know about medical marijuana.

Grumpy you must disclose the use of it on your medical long form because there is an electronic record of your medical history you give them full authorization to review. If you lie, and get caught, you are unlikely to find employment for a long time and run the risk of criminal action because these forms are federally regulated, legal documents.

Huge mistake to lie on a medical form, huge mistake.

Not directly, no.

What they do ask is medical history history for many categories of conditions. Such as back issues requiring medical treatment. If the Doctor prescribed medical marijuana to manage pain, it’s advisable to disclose this because an electronic medical record exists documenting the history.
