Best Answer

A polygraph test is commonly called a 'lie detector'. The passage of time would not affect your chance of passing the test. The test measures skin response, heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, etc., to judge whether you are lying. If you know you are lying, then there is little difference between a day and a year. Your reaction will be the same.

This is very different from a blood, urine, hair, etc. test.
