Welcome Mou,
Congratulations on your marriage, I got married on June 5th in Marrakech, my husband posts on this board as boras, please feel free to ask him about where to go to get the marriage certificate stamped. If I remember correctly he had it translated to French and then it had to be stamped somewhere in Rabat. I don't know what the office is called, but of course he knows.
I'm excited to see new people joining the group, I'm in Toronto too!
Happy Friday, very happy for us (as boras posted today) he got the letter from the embassy saying they are working on his file.
Doing the dance of joy, Raven

HI Welcome to the board!
You do need to stamp the mariage act at the ministry of foreign affairs. And you do need it translated to French or English (french is easier I think). Also, make copies of the ministry stamped act and have them legalised at the municipality. Always good to have back ups. :-)

Hi All,
First off - Congrats Yasmina great news!! (I am sooo jealous!)
First off again - Congrats Boras and Raven on your great news. Once again I am soo jealous!!
Secondly - I think my hubby is the best. However, I will make one concession to Raven - Boras and my hubby met and my hubby liked your hubby - I have always believed that good knows good!!!
Donna -- I would suggest bringing the immigration documents with you and get the copies of the documents you need for that at the same time you are doing the marriage documents. You will be doing a lot of waiting and could complete the forms at that time. I did not do it this way and here is my situation: I was married May 31st and I still havent filed my papers yet!! Expect the unexpected, however, I think that had I brought the papers with me, and filled them out there and got everything done, maybe I would be in the same boat as Yasmina and Raven.
To all those about to get married: I have another caveat -- please check your Marriage Certificate and translation very carefully -- both of mine had errors on them -- things had to go to the tribunal again to correct the errors, then back to Rabat to be translated and equalized at the Ministry of foreign affairs. Major pain in the butt. So just be careful. Check spelling of names, birthdates, amount of dowry etc.
I am trying to be positive and I am hoping to get the papers filed in the next week or so.
Has anyone found any good moroccan cookbooks here in canada?
Take care, B

Thanks Becca,
Adam spoke to your husband recently and sounds like you are pretty close to having all the papers gathered, which in my opinion was the hardest and most tasking part of the whole sponsorship process. There is a huge sense of relief once you send the package in to Mississauga, I hope that day comes real soon for you both.
I found a few cookbooks that I picked up at Chapters but haven't tried any recipes from them yet, even though I brought back a lot of Moroccan spices and made tajine for friends by following a few recipes my husband taught me.
Cheers, Raven

Hi Raven did u use a Tajine cooking pot or ? I would love to find one here as it was to heavy for me to bring back home from morocco I have many recepies and know how to make the tajine and couscous and there bread his mom makes as i was there for some time in morocco. I agree with u when the papers are sent its a major relief and feels like weight is off our sholders
