Fianally I was able to talk to someone after several attempts at the Consulate and the lady looked up our case number. She said his visa is now ready for pick-up that they had some delays the last couple of days..Their office is now closed so he can come Monday at 3 to pick it up. I told her about no green slip for approval and she said it's ok, he will not have to have it. He can just show his ID card. She assured me that the Visa is definately there today.

Hello.....My hsuband was APPROVED for his visa on Mon Sept 27,2010...He was told at the interview to come on wednesday at 3pm to pick up his visa. It will be ready! They kept his passport too.
He gets a call back to bring his photos for visa that the Co Interviewer FORGOT to ask him for and the consulate told him to come early in the A.M. so he can still pick up his visa by 3 pm.....He gets there on Wednesday and waited all day and NO VISA....they tell him and about 14 others to come back TODAY Sept 30th and it will be ready.....so he gets there in the early morning and I am told he and the others waited in line all day from morning til 6pm in the hot sun....they couldn't get near the consulate or entrance to ask about visa but consulate sent a man out to tell them all still no visa and come back a THIRD time,lol....which is tomorrow and Friday...no apologies and no explainations....no personal phone calls telling of the delays! Now his boss is very upset and told my husband if he doesn't want to work and missing, they will let him go...so he was torn between going again to Casa or go to work.....I advised him to go to work and try again next week to not make another wasted trip.......in talking with my husband about this issue tonight, I found out the interviewer also FORGOT to give him any slip of paper for approval, denial, or Ap...all the others waiting with him had green approved slips. Another man in line who was told he was approved was told he needed to bring back tax records or AOS which was a C-1 case too...Now my husbnad is worried they will tell him this too since ours were turned in at NVC stage and the interviewer did not ask for another copy or our AOS or 2007-2009 tax transcripts the day of........why can't the consulate tell our loved ones "we will call you when your visa is ready"...what is going on with this??? Has anyone ever had this problem with Morocco consulate who might can shed some light and give me advise or answers...i tried calling NVC and the operator said he did not have results in their computer since our case left NVC....Do I contact the Department of state? I know calling the consulate we may not get them tro answer and my husband did call consulate before going and they told several of these men to come and everything is ok and they travel these hrs and waste money (qwhich most don't have to begin with) and they get to casa and no VISA. My husband is now sick from the sun and very very upset and felt they were treated like animals and never told them I am sorry and he may be losing his job tomorrow over this absence.....what would you advise us to do in this situation?wait it out and let them contact him whenever???

I agree with Kathryn....we should not judge harshly. and having three teenage children in my own household, I can relate and understand how challenging it can be for this man...I can see from my husband's experiences where maybe the poster could be coming from with his feelings.....both would have to have lots of patience....my kids liked my husband and now two doesn't talk to him and was disrespectful because he was new in relationship here and trying to do his best and they were looking for reasons to complain and compare and jealousies etc...we have come a long way but still have issues with my teenage kids so I can relate to this poster for his feelings of sorrow and wanting her kids to like him and like my husband he just wants a marriage and to live in peace and be respected..I have had to show the kids some tough love....I am glad my husband has patience and shows his enduring love, therefore I know my husband married me for nothing other than love....and he had an easier job back at home....there are lots of things that can affect marriages and we do not know all of this couple's issues, so let's not judge so harshly and I too thought the same at first but then I really thought his English is bad and he phrased what he wanted to say, badly....If they want their marriage to work and love one another, i would suggest counseling as well. Too keep in mind, living together is totally different from years of thinking you know someone from a few visits and seeing and talking to them on-line. Life throws you curves and obstacles in the way. We show our true self's when we start living together........It is no longer the fairy tale..it's reality and trully living together and making your lives the way you want it to be. This is just my opinions so don't beat me up.

Requirements for the K1 Visa
A. You and your fiance are legally eligible to marry under the laws of your country as well as the laws of the U.S.
B. You will marry the petitioning U.S. citizen within 90 days of entering the U.S.
C. You intend to enter the U.S. solely to marry the U.S. citizen
D. You have met the U.S. citizen within the last two years before filing for the K1 fiance visa. However, this requirement can be waived only if meeting your fiance in person would violate long-established customs, or would create extreme hardship for you
This you would have to prove and Morocco is considerd a high fraud country and it is already hard for couples to prove a bona-fide relationship with several trips meeting in person. There are probably no guarantees they will even consider an approval without meeting at least once in person. Sometimes things may not appear as it seems on-line without physical touch and emotions and meeting of family and vise versa. Isn't it only logical to meet in person to see if you both are experiencing genuine REAL feelings?......she could get a sitter for her to at least visit you only if its just for two weeks Morocco. Surely she has friends or family who can help out. I had only visited my husband once in nov 2008...again in April 2009 when we married and in 2010 (even thought its nearing the end of the year) I have not visited him any this year 'cause of waiting for immigration this year almost taking about 8 months so we patiently waited. Both my trips could only last about two weeks with my work schedule. we got approved & he has his visa but I kept up with every e-mail chat record since our very first meetings on-line. I would encourage you both do this.
Its going to be a long process so I encourage you to burn your logs onto CD's incase your computer ever crashes from a sudden unexpected virus to not lose important key evidence of your relationship.
Most all visitor's visa's to come and visit a lady fiance or friend gets rejected. I met a lady on the plane who had a mere friend in tourist business she visited every year and he applied she said 10 times and never accepted and you lose those fees. Im sure if I am wrong someone here on VJ will correct me. Good luck to you both.

I married in Morocco and I had my local police record and it took a couple of days.........make sure you take a babtism record or something to show your religion and to prove you are of the book. We had to have this document before he could marry someone other than a Muslim. Also you will go to the Embassy in casablanca and you will need to pay for an Affidavit of nationality (them showing you are American) and also an affidavit to marry (showing you are able to marry and show prove of any divorces).........take divorce certificate with you.birth certificate.....you will need passport.....and I think employment records or paystubs is a MUST!! They will also ask for your primary, second and high school educataion and parents info......also you must have been divorced by 90 days!!...I waited 4 years to get my divorce in writing from my estranged (American) ex- husband and it was 60 days by time my first visit so we had to wait and finish marriage on our second trip. Im putting this here incase someone reads it and may be in similar situation so they will have the knowledge.
