Hi Everyone
I was just catching up reading all the posts. When we got our call for our interview i was in morocco. It was a wednesday. And it was the following week our interview was scheduled just a week after the phone call. They also asked us to bring more information like chats,phone bills more wedding pics with other family members in the pics. I sent pics but with just us but they wanted proof that family members were there to. Mostly all the same stuff i allready sent to them. We just copied them and he brought them to the interview the only thing different he brought was more pics of wedding with the family in them. When you leave that interview you will have a good idea if they believe you or not. Ask them alot of questions about if you were accepted or not. I am sure everyone will get a call soon.
Take Care
Kelly

Hi Raven: I read your post , you seem to be worried about not been able to show the interviewers the wedding video. Here is a link to a software you can use to produce still photos. I hope it will help you to get more photos for the interview. http://www.topdrawerdownloads.com/download/104617Yasmina : you can use this software too to get more photos from your video. To Yasmina and the rest of you who are using skype as a way of communication, skype will only keep the last 6 months of records. Nooda |

Hi All,
I am really worried about something and just wanted to see how everyone else's experience was.
I received my sponsorship approval letter on October 26, 2007. But to date, my husband has not received a letter from Rabat saying that they have received our documents in Rabat. How long did your husbands/wives have to wait to get this letter?
Thanks,
Becca

Becca,
don't worry, we got our sponsorship approval Aug. 11 and our acknowledgement letter from the embassy didn't come until Sept. 10th, although it was dated Aug. 16th. give it some more time before you worry.
Raven,
I don't believe you need one photo with everyone in it from the wedding. I think there were about 100 people coming and going from our "fete" and there's no possible way we could get everyone in one shot. I believe it's more a matter of just having a variety of photos with various family members.
We made copies of our skype talks the first time so we will do that again for the interview for sure.
Kelly, thanks for sharing your timing experience! That's four couples I've heard of now who all had less than 2 weeks notice before the interview. It's good to have an idea since I need to send my husband some stuff by mail and you know how long that can take sometimes!
hopefully there will be another person with good news on here soon....
Val

About the photos, well they dont look at them carefully at all. The guy asked me a stupifying question at the interview. He said i mentioned in my application that there were more than fifty people in the wedding ceremony but he cant seem to find them in the pictures! Can you beleive that? I said I cant get all fifty people in one photograph. so I had to show him from the pictures i sent to them earlier about number of people but still they didnt count up to fifty. So I said to him why dont u look the CD of our wedding ceremony which I have brought with me and you can count fifty people in them i guess. But the idea didnt appeal to him and please dont take pictures of your close relatives more than one. he might say why people are keep repeating in the pictures, which he actually did say to me during interview. I said there are my close family members offcourse they will be in more than one picture since they were standing and sitting beside groom and bride. I must mention I am applying from Islambad. Maybe the visa officers are not like that in other places. but just wanted to share my experience about photographs. I sent more than 50 photos of me and my wife with all the family members during wedding ceremony and in general too. But what a shame I couldnt capture all fifty of them that were invited!

I am so dissapointed today. I was expecting for the updated times for the sponsorship approval to include my date today. Last week it showed that the applications were processed through the 17th of Oct and 38 days. Today it still shows the 17th of Oct, and now it is 44 days. That means that there as at least another week added to my sponsorship time.
Does anyone know if this is usual for the time to get longer and the completed date not to advance?
I really was looking forward to some good news today. I miss my Husband so much, and to see things taking longer is very painful.
I really wish the best for everyone that is waiting. May you get good news very soon.

Hoping 75 -- Don't worry about anything. I had the exact same thing happen to me. It was stuck for 3 weeks on the same date. Then magically, when I least expected it, I got the letter saying my sponsorhsip was approved. Even before that date was updated on the website. So don't worry about it too much.

Congratulations hbnour!
I got a little bit of good news. I had posted yesterday about my husband not receiving a letter saying that they had received his file in Rabat. However, today he received the letter. It was dated Nov 2 and he just got it today. The letter said that they are taking up to 7 months to process. 7 months if the spouse had been living outside of Morocco and if there were missing documents. These things do not apply to my husband and I so I am hopeful it will be less than 7 months!! At least I know that they haven't lost our paperwork!!

congratulations hbnour! just when i had written that i hoped somebody would have good news soon too! you've been waiting for about 5 months since hearing from the embassy, right?
isabelle, hang in there, you can do this/tu peux le supporter! i wish you were in toronto and we could go have a cup of tea together and share the stress of this waiting as vesna and i did. guess a cyber wish of support is better than nothing : )

Thank Nooda, hello everyone, everything went very well for my wife, the intrvw lasted only 30 mns, they asked the usual queexpected questions & thank God I prepared her for the unexpected. They asked her for proofs of support which she produced & they kept them. Gave her back her passport & pics & saithey would call her next Wed Nov 28. So right we are both relaxed as we've passed this major hurdle towards our reunion. To everyone else I wish you a smooth sailing like the one my wife had today. |

Hi Yasmina/isabelle, hi Nooda
thanks
most of the questions usually consisted of:
How did you meet?
Where & when?
What do i do for a living?
What's my birthday?
have I ever sponsored someone from morocco? (In this case she knew I tried to sponsore my sister last year. Thank God she was aware of that because they had the file in front of them & they even asked her about my sister's name).
Where do I work?
If I was married before & if yes why did my marriage break up?
As for the proof of support it is an amount of money that i 've been sending her once a month so she could help herself with i,t not that she needed it but just to give our marriage that genuineness in the eyes of the interviewer.
As she called me while I was at work, & I can't talk to her now as it is very late over there in morocco, I will get the rest of the interview questions from her & I will post them on the week end.
regards
