What documents does Tarik need to have at the POE? He got a package from the consulate in Casablanca but I dont know if he needs anything else.

The unopened brown envelope, the ex ray, the 1-94 he will fill out on the plane, and his passport.

X-ray?

Oh btw... How do we get a social security #? We need it for the license!

You need to wait about 2 weeks for him to be in the system in order for you to apply for the SS card.

and from the vj guide: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...om&page=ssn

On the other hand, you should also not file for a SSN too soon either.
You should wait 2 weeks after you arrived in the US before applying for a SSN. If you go too soon your
record of arrival will not be in the SAVE-ASVI system yet, and it will require manual verification from the
USCIS.

for what license?

You might be able to get a waiver on the SSN if your state normally requires it for the marriage license.

Make sure he knows your address. That will go on the I-94, and they may ask also.

2 weeks? I need the SSN for the Marriage License! We need to get married on Monday August 11 or else we can't be together until he gets his SSN! This had better not be the only way to get a marriage license!

Our state asked for the SSN, but we had it, so we didn't ask if it was mandatory. At least some states do waive the requirement. Some non-residents marry in the U.S. without immigrating, and they won't have a SSN. Best to call and ask on Monday.

I really hope I can get the SSN or get some sympathy from the court.

Ibrahim was never asked for a SS number to marry in Illinois.

And the mosques in Illinois DEFINATELY would not marry us Islamically until we were legally married.

Can you drive to Toledo? Lucas County does not require a SS# form him, only his passport and I-94 from my understanding. So there may be hope!

Franklin County Municipal Court Civil Marriage Ceremony Information (614) 645-8162 I would call them and ask.


Here is the online application and it doesn't ask for the SSN.

It was asked for when I applied, but it was either SSN or I-94 number.


I don't know how I found the actual marriage laws for my state, but I printed them out and took them with me - good thing I did, or I wouldn't have been able to get married the day after he arrived

Here are the marriage laws in Ohio - hope it helps

May God Bless ALL OF YOU! You have REALLY helped me fall into a state of ease. Mashaallah you are all great people and it makes me feel loved and secure knowing you are all here for me. Inshaallah once I've been through all of this I will be able to help everyone else. I love you ladies!

God Bless you too, babyeshell!

I was going to say that we applied for our marriage license the day after he arrived in Ohio and they just put all zero's as his social security number. It seems like you already have a peace of mind though

I would get married the next day if I could but the offices are closed on weekends. Grrr! But it's ok. I'll be spending a lot of time with him and my family

Good luck with everything! It will all fall into place!
