1)this form i did here in Toronto with my lawyer where he basically wrote where i lived/work/how much i make and when i divorced before with date and reference number ..and ending with the fact that i was clear of marriage from previous and now go get married again.

2)picture sizes are found on the below site and you can get them done either here or there, we did ours there
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/citizen/CIT0021E.pdf
3)unsure about that..what you can do there
4)you shouldn't get it done yet if you plan on marrying late this year i believe it is only good for 60days.

7)medical can be done there my husband and i both went into a hospital and had it done in Morocco with no problems
10) there is a separate declaration of income you will have to complete..go to the following website and you can request a afull package from cic ..what i did was call them and get them to mail me a package in accordance with Morocco as my husbands country since it has the different offices to get the medical done
13)no translation ..just straight copy and authenticated from the translator.
14)done by the candian embassy in Rabat fees 50
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/adults.asp

the below information is just something else to consider..honestly i can't remember any thing else right now..but good luck in getting everything filled out ...be ready for the wait..since it will take some time to get from one place to the other and then have things translated...but i know in the end it will all be worth it.or so Jamal keeps telling me to get my hopes up..we are going into three months since last seeing each other its so hard to be apart from someone who you care about so dear

- valid passport
- birth certificate
- criminal record check (from the police in her city or if she lives outside a city from the rcmp)
- proof that she is a christian, muslim or jew (there are ways around this)
- 4 recent photographs
- Capacity for Marriage (this shows that she isn't currently married and is able to marry)
- certificate of police clearance from the ministry of Justice in Rabat (proof that she has no criminal record in Morocco) - this will need to be done in Morocco

You should also go to the following site:
http://www.dfait-maeci.gc.ca/morocco/marriage-en.asp

Note that one of the things the Moroccan authorities will ask you to submit is a certificate stating there are no impediments to your marriage (also called Capacité de Mariage [eligibility to marry]). This certificate must be issued by the Canadian Embassy in Morocco, located in Rabat. At the same time, the Embassy will also issue you an Attestation de Nationalité [confirmation of nationality]. Fees in the amount of C$50 apply. In order for the Embassy to issue these documents to you, you will have to complete and sign an affidavit. You will also have to present your Canadian passport and the national card of the Moroccan citizen you intend to marry. Usually, the certificate and the Attestation will be issued to you within 48 hours.

To obtain a certificate of non-impediment to marriage issued at the Canadian Embassy in Rabat, Canadian citizens are now required to produce a sworn statement in French before a lawyer, notary or judge in Canada containing the following information:
Surname;
Given name;
Date of birth;
Place of birth;
Address (in Canada);
Marital status of the applicant;
Canadian passport number or birth certificate number;

A paragraph certifying that the Canadian citizen assumes complete responsibility for his/her future spouse for a prospective stay in Canada.
Information on the future spouse:
Surname;
Given name;
Date of birth;
Address;
Identification card number.

If the Canadian citizen is already in Morocco, he or she can complete this procedure before a Moroccan lawyer or notary. Please note that the sworn statement must be in French.

Moroccan Authorities
To complete your file with the Moroccan authorities, in addition to the Capacité de Mariage and the Attestation de Nationalité issued by the Embassy, you will also have to present a birth certificate, a statement of criminal record (or lack thereof) issued by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), a divorce certificate (if applicable) duly authenticated by the Department of Foreign Affairs in Ottawa, a medical certificate and a work certificate. Note that the list provided here is only a guide; additional documents may in fact be required. Therefore, we repeat that it is very important for you to confirm with the proper Moroccan authorities the precise list of required documents BEFORE you leave Canada.

We also suggest you consult the Moroccan Embassy in Canada, which can provide you with additional information.

05- certificate of nationality .
( if you are already marriage dont forget to bring divorce certificate )

in the consulate you'll have :
06- statement of criminal record from ministry of justice .and you'll take it to the external ministry and you should bring with you 20 dh and passport copy .

09- pictures they said 4 but just have 16 sometimes you need it .
10- medical certificate it's easy to get it in morocco .
11- if you are Moslem's you need a certificate from imam says that you are Moslem's or and other one says that you are Christiane or jewish if you are not Moslem's .
12- passport copy .
that all you need as a Canadian woman but your man also should have these documents :
