My documents/birth certificates are similar to OP's situation, but with less variation in last names. I only submitted the birth certificate from the place I was born (as described on the reciprocity schedule), and then wrote a note on why the name on my passport was slightly different [birth certificate lists me as Anna Barbara Christina Daniella Estella WHITE SMITH (not my real name, obviously, but similar structure with 5 first names), but my passport and my all IDs are only displaying Anna SMITH, and have been for all my life]. Also listed all names on the forms under other names used, when required, and requested my police certificate with all names being checked. Never shared with them the other birth certificate, since it was not required, and might have created more confusion.

You'll have to find a way to meet in a third country then. Start with a list of countries Moroccans can visit visa free/visa on arrival, and see where you'd be able to go. There's most probably a Caribbean country that will fit the bill. The exemption you're talking about is for extreme cases (think someone in an iron lung); while Morocco îs not the most gay-friendly location, plenty of "friends" of the same gender go for tourism, or to meet others. You won't be asked about your sexual orientation at the border (not applicable though, since you're not allowed to travel there at this time). Also, please, please, meet each other, ideally a few times, before deciding to marry. There are some things that you can only see/verify in person. @Jeanne Adil might be able to give you extra feedback from her experience with the Embassy in Morocco.

If you're getting married, you might as well get married legally and enjoy the benefits of the spousal visa. If you absolutely want an American Court wedding, do an online Utah marriage and then the religious ceremony and party there. Getting married, but not really married, is not going to bring you any positives. It will be much more expensive, and longer, to refile for a spousal visa after the fiancé visa is denied for already being married... Just get married.

It tells you exactly what will happen: "Photo will be taken at ASC".

Reminder that the name/s on her airlines ticket will have to match the name/s in her passport/s.

Yes, I did. The documents required will depend on the bank. Since you posted your question in the Canada forum, and if you are still in Canada, you might also look into opening a USD account while in Canada, from an institution with American ranches (Desjardins, RBC - can't say for sure about TD, they were useless back when I moved). Can be useful to transfer funds more easily, open line of credit, etc.

Lost/stolen Green Card while in the Philippines?
Lemonslice replied to EatBulaga's topic in Philippines
Why wouldn't they believe her? They can take her biometrics again and confirm she is who she says she is... That being said, if you search the forums, you will find many people who have had to request a boarding foil. Good to be prepared, but even better not to lose the card. -
K1 Visa beneficiary with a theft conviction
Lemonslice replied to Nikora's topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
As asked by @Boiler, what was the worst you could have served? It matters. -
same-sex couple
Lemonslice replied to erysipelothrix's topic in Bringing Family Members of Permanent Residents to America
Yes, before filing, you need to consummate the marriage [being in the same physical location after the marriage, nothing else is required]. -
How soon can I get married once I enter the US?
Lemonslice replied to Dowoon's topic in Tourist Visas
Exactly. Some states/counties might have a waiting period between the marriage licence and the marriage itself, but it's usually only a few days. Someone with good organization skills, and faith/luck in escaping delayed flights, could plan something on the day of arrival. -
K1 visa with medical waiver
Lemonslice replied to monsterhouse's topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
You could do something like @devusr did and meet somewhere closer to the USA, in a third country where you do not need a visa/get visa upon arrival [do your research on that]. -
You can check up border wait times on the CBSA website. She seems to have the correct documents. Border agents verify the documents, but also ask other questions/evaluate other factors before making their decision; no one here can assure you that there will be no problem entering Canada, but most US Permanent residents entry to Canada is uneventful. If you have further questions, you can call CBSA directly, they answer calls and are super helpful. https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/ Bon voyage!
