Cat & Younes

When my fiance' visa was sent back to USA and put in AP. They left it there without ever contacting until the time expired and they told me I had to re-apply.  Don't waste your time like I did. Just go there and marry your fiance' and file a spousal visa. Makes me mad every time I think of the wasted time without us being together.

Yes,  I forgot that they require a letter from your employer or pays stubs.  I took about 3 months worth of pays stubs.  They were enough. Good luck. 

Hello,  I will try and help you as I just went through the process. You have to have your police record from FBI in the US before you go to Morocco.  If you have that,  go to Rabat,  with paper from US Consulate and your passport.  You have to get a police report on you from Morocco at an office there and only you can go in. They have you fill out a form in the Am,  go first thing when they open,  then they will tell you what time to come back in afternoon to pick it up.   The address is listed on the US Consulate website.  You and your fiance each need a medical exam and paper saying you are healthy etc.   Each of you need your birth certificate.  Make sure all your documents are translated into Arabic.  If you are divorced,  the divorce decree must be included.  Each English page translated is 200 MAD/ 20.00. All English pages, documents must be translated in Arabic. Your fiancé  can find one.  

. Your fiance needs his identity card and passport and of course birth certificate and a certificate that he is single or divorce papers too.  Then go to minister of Exterior locally to get approval there. 

. Yes,  it is alot.  Then you and your fiancé go to the local Adoul and he will set up an interview for both of you with the police department,  once you are approved  with the both of them then you both will have an interview with the judge in the local justice.  It can take awhile,  up to a couple weeks for the police to investigate.  If the judge approves and signs the paper then you both go back to the Adoul to get married. 

 At each place you will have a fee.  Anywhere from 150 MAD to 200 MAD.  The Adoul I think was almost 2000 MAD.  The is a fee (300MAD is what we paid) for a translator for you when you go before the judge approval and it must happen as your answers cannot go through your fiancé.  Must have a neutral translator.  The Adoul will arrange the translator. 

 Let me know what else you need? I will try to help you.  

After 180 days of waiting for an answer, I went to the USCIS office and the lady told me, with "your type of visa" that they can't give me an answer and to wait for the Office in California to contact me. I finally got an answer and that the process took too long past the date that it e paired, that I have to re-apply. They did not deny or approve the Visa, they said it expired. When I was told to wait 180 days, so I did.

From what I can figure is that USCIS are not approving "my kind of visa" because. Of the killings in California by people that came to the US with fiance visa's.

I suggest anyone that must go through this process to marry abroad and then start a spousal visa. Don't waste your time or money with a fiance visa. I have felt disappointed and devastated for what USCIS has done by stalling and taking my money for nothing.

I live close to the border and I now know why people come across the border as illegal aliens.

I work hard as I am sure most of us do, and USCIS takes the money without hesitation and then tell me to re apply again after USCIS let's the time expire when the local office (straight from the office manager) said there is no time limit since the State Department sent the Visa back for more information. Not very trust worthy and honest.

I even had a 2 hour interview in the local office. It was all a waste of time. Here we are 1.5 years later still apart from each other.

The bottom line is uscis take's care of security of the US and absolutely do not care about people's life's or love's.

Excuse the typos, I had to use my phone.

Yes but they didn't say anything about addiction docs that heeded l,I believe they might send it back to the uscis.wish not,anyway thank you for your answer

The US Consulate in Casablanca will not tell you what is needed or additional paperwork. They send the petition back to the USCIS and they will contact you for what is needed. Period. Contact the National Visa Center - to check if there is a note on your file that they will send the Petition back, which mine did. Our petition was not sent back until I had my Congressman get involved. Once the Congressman contacted the US Consulate as to where the petition is, they finally sent the petition back to USCIS. It took 11 months for USCIS to finally receive the petition back. The US Consulate will not communicate with the petitioner. I tried with numerous phone calls, and emails. They respond but will not give you any answers.

I am sorry for the health of your wife is failing. Is there a way to visit? Did you tell the US Consulate the situation just to get a Visitor visa?

Also, the consular officer did not request anything. The officer explicitly told my spouse what they had to verify and that they would call. I will contact my congressman on the 60th day. I reside in the US and have been racking my brain with what to do next. Unfortunately it seems like nothing can be done.

What paper did he give your fiancé?

221(g) a second time. This time, the paper said they are sending the petition back to USCIS. I called USCIS and they do have a note that it is getting sent back. I will be calling every week to see when they receive it.

Hi cat & Younes I'm in AP since March , my question to you , have they called you for a second interview if so did they ask you to submit another medical exam since it's been over 6 Month .

Yes, second interview, if that is what you called it. My fiance went and the US Consulate handed him a paper and that was it. We are still in AP.

Hello everyone,

Who is going through Administrative Processing with their K1 VISA petition at the US Consulate, Casablanca, Morocco? How long have you been in AP? What have you done, what did the US Consulate want on the interview or are you doing anything to help the process and it is working?

I am looking to see what others are doing while in AP and did you contact your congressman? Did it help?

Thank you, I wish all of us the best

I read that too before Unfortunately they put people in same Box

What do you mean "in the same box?"

Be patient, everyone needs to have tons of patience. Even when it gets to the interview stage. Here is a document everyone needs to read so they are not blind sided at the interview as we were.

We got the same from this old, rude, condescending man at the interview, Well, I should say my Fiance' did. That was Jan 2015 and we have been waiting for months since to hear from USCIS.

Hello Everyone,

We received our interview date and it is coming soon. Alhamdulilallah! On one of the papers from the Consulate, it says no phones allowed inside the consulate. Since we are traveling far we want to take our cell phone with us but we do not have a place to keep the phone but we can turn it off.

Will it be allowed inside during interview if it is turned off?

Will they take it and return it later?

Will they cancel the interview if you have a phone?

When approved for the K1 Visa how long do you wait for it to be issued? A day? A week later?

Are there any reasonable priced hotels nearby with security near the consulate?

Thank you in advance,
