Hi Moroccan escape ! Thanks for replying to my post ! Yes I know marrying on the first visit  it’s a red flag , but we already knew each other for 8 months ( I’m sure this doesn’t matter to them) ! I’m planning to visit as much as I can ! I’m going in October but only for 11 days ! The first time I was there for one month ! I will go back in probably 5 months  again ! Unfortunately I cannot stay there for a year , I will not  have any income so I have to work ! I’m going there not to show them that well my relationship with my husband is real but because I really miss my husband ! When I was there last time I met a lady from USA she also was getting married and she said that she was there for a year , living in the desert ! Thanks for the good words ! I don’t want anything more than to be with my husband! My life is here in US because I have a good job and income, I cannot move in Morocco! What I’m going to work and how we will support each other ? 

Thanks again ! 

Thanks Carmel34  fo the encouragement! I’m going to Morocco in October, so will be my second visit ! In 5months I will go again ! I have to accumulate PTO !

JeanneAdil, i did fast on Ramadan with my husband because I was there when Ramadan started ! I do not think is hard , also I’m born and raised not as American ! I’m originally from Bulgaria I saw many sides of the life so I also had the misconception like everyone coming from outside USA. 

And yes I have permission  and acceptance from my “mama  Melouda “ and his brothers and sisters in law ! 

I don’t try to satisfy  any issues  for emigration ! I’m well aware of my ability to have children at this age ! 

JeanneAdil, thanks soo much for the advice ! It’s very helpful! I already spoke with my husband ! I also made him authorized user to my credit card ! I put him as beneficiary to my 401k and in my emergency contact in my profile at work ! So I left to do the w7 and the bank ! We also will try to open joint account in Morocco bank ! 

Thanks again for the good advices! 

I was surprised how many people responded and try to help me ! 

Thanks  oliversmom! 

JeanneAdil does the POA needs to be general or specific ? Like what exactly I need the POA or just POA general?

Jeanne I know it will get harder and they will ask uncomfortable question! I did talk to my husband about that and he is aware I just express feelings ! I probably should stick to the questions and suggestions not expressing feelings ! Yes I will do the w7 and ITIN! I will talk with my accountant! 

Boiler yes I should be ready for judgment but I came here to ask for suggestions not being criticized for being married to a person from Morocco! I know people cannot hold their tongue when it comes to judgment, it’s easy to do so because we humans at very happy to judge! 

Geowrian , yes definitely they will ask !

Jorgedig I know is my choice marrying a person from another country and I also know I have to follow the rules and it doesn’t mean I’m not going to follow it but still I have feelings ! So I don’t think you should judge my feelings !

Jorgedig yes I know definitely they will ask ! We don’t want to try now to have children (if is even possible) because I’m working and will be very hard to visit him and take care of a baby by myself !

JeanneAdil you right I will let him know , and yes he want to get driving lessons! Thanks for the good tips !

PandT yes Morocco is difficult ! I did hire law firm for that ! I follow a suggestion from this website and I just added him as a authorized use to my credit card! 

Jorgedig we talked about children and he is ok not having any but I’m sure he will be happy to have a child together so we will try ! 

RJandHamid no we didn’t submit the I-130 yet ! 

Carmel34 thanks for responding! Yes I was in Morocco for 1 month now I’m going in October for 11 days and probably next year I will go few more times ! I also want  to be there for his interview! But how did you get bank accounts together since he was in Brazil and you were here in USA? 

Boiler this is an option too , I have to talk to my husband but he also need to take some English classes , so he can improve his English! He learn fast since we talk in English but needs improvement! 

JeanneAdil what is POA I’m not familiar with this abbreviation! ! 

Hey RJandHamid, I already send to my lawyer the proof of my next trip , tickets and apartment reservation ! Also we have a lots of pictures and phone and video calls ! I already send pictures and recipes as well ,to the lawyer ! I will travel next year at least 2 more times for 1 months each time if possible!  ! Since the wait period is long I have to go to see my husband ! He will also start taking some English classes so he can improve his English ! I love my husband and he loves me  I don’t know what else I can do to prove them that our relationship and marriage is  genuine ! 

Hi JeanneAdil , this time I’m going only for 11 days but  I was there last time for a months! I submitted many pictures and recipes,  plane tickets!i also got my ticket for October visit and apartment reservation so I did send this to my lawyer.  Next year I will go aging for a month! Yes we talked with my husband about him studying here because he will need to have a good job so education is important! He did go to university for few years in Morocco but he stopped! My husband knows me very well from my observation! We talk ,text and video call a lot ! For my age and being able to have children we also talked ! 

Thanks for the positive message! I know that I need a lot of evidence and prove and I do my best !  We have a lots of pictures, we talk every day text and video calls ! I don’t know what more they want since we are not living together! Also I got a lots of recipes  from my trip last time , tickets !I’m going in October to visit my husband and I will spend this time only 11 days ( not enough PTO since I spend it all at the last visit 1 month ) ! Next year I’m planing to go again at least two more times, as a nurse it’s hard to get vacation we are always over staffed ! Anyway I will do everything in my power to get the evidence and be with my husband ! I’m afraid and worry because you never know what they will say ! It’s soo sad that someone else will decide if my marriage is real or not ! This is so personal and I feel violated but I  know it’s not only me ! 

Hi everyone, my names is Galina and I have few questions about the red flags ! I met my husband last September online ! I visited him April and we got married May 17, 2019. So we got married on the first visit ! My divorce was finalized April 25, I’m older than my husband 11years ( he is 36 and I’m 47). He is Muslim I’m a Christian. I’m originally from Bulgaria but I live in USA almost 18 years ! I’m a nurse obviously I have degree , soo all this it’s seems to be red flags ! I’m very concerned about that ! We just got all our documents needed for I-130 ., and I hire a law company  for that ! I did ask the paralegal what will happen if we are not approved but I didn’t ask about the red flags and how we can overcome the issues ! So I’m very frustrated because I was married for a man with the same background as mine and the same religion and nationality and it end up in divorce and now when I found the person that I love and care about ,they will tell me “oh all your marriage is RED FLAG because is not in the norms “ ! I mean norms in terms of what it’s supposed to be a norm for falling in love and when you should get married! Absurd!!! How someone will tell me when I should get marry and if I’m really in love ! It’s frustrating! I’m asking if anyone have the same experience as mine and how was it ? 

Thanks and apologies for the long post !
