I so have to stop reading so much.. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to being granted a visa from Morocco or denied from Morocco. I read of people having enough proof and being denied and the other stories of "smooth sailing".. Our interview is soon and I am getting so nervous.. I keep going over everything again and again.. We talk about possible questions he will be asked every night.. I did not know about the Financial Support papers,but I have all that together and will be emailing them to him and sending 3 day air so he has originals (thank you to all who helped with my previous question).. I know I make enough, I've been to Morocco several times, I make enough money, enclosed letters from my family and have gone over everything so much I'm confusing myself.. I pray for the strength from God to keep from going crazy.. Sorry for the babbling, but after 2 years of being together and going through the 9 months of pulling everything together, I guess I'm nervous.. Any advice on how I can calm down? P.S. Thanks for listening everyone!

Ma Vie,

Yeah, you're probably reading too much. I've done the same. Just do your best to relax, as difficult as that is. My best advice is just to 'practice' the interview with him. Ask him questions not just so he can easily recite the answers, but also to help him be less nervous about it. I know there seems to be no rhyme or reason to approvals and denials, but from what I've heard, their 'performance' is a big factor. Not performance as in acting/lying, but performance as in how they present themselves. It's kind of like a job interview, in a way. My SO was questioned for a very long time by a nasty woman who sounded unconvinced, but he ended up getting the visa, and I think it was because he kept his cool (with no 'attitude') and just kept answering her - even when she repeated questions over and over.

Best of luck to him - I hope it works for you!

Ma Vie, my fiance was not asked questions. He was asked, "tell me about your fiance"; so be prepared for that as well. Good luck to you.

Just for clarity, the Moroccan Embassy will have nothing to do with issuing any visas for entering the USA. US Consular services at a US Embassy or Consulate is in charge of that. Surely that's what you meant but I thought I'd clear it up in case anybody else was confused.
