I guess what I am looking to find out is the process in which my boyfriend, soon to become fiance, will have to go through to get his visa. I am american and I plan to go visit him in morocco spring of next year. I really dont know what to expect. I am full of excitement and anxiety because I have never been outside of the U.S. I don't know much about morocco either. I never knew it existed until I met my love. Iv'e heard so many negative things... not from him but from others whom iv'e spoke with. Things from not being accepted as an African American woman to violent protests and mugging. Someone please shed some light on my dilemma. I don't want to come to him with my concerns because he already knows my "doubt" for the lack of a better word. There is no question that I love him and he me. So this is all going to happen regardless...How did you overcome the cultural differences once you arrived in the U.S.? Is there some kind of group or organization my boyfriend can join to ease his transition? By the way we will be residing in California. For the visa: what are the income requirements? What are the different types he can apply for? What are the prices? How long does it generally take to receive a visa?I know it seems as if I'm rambling but I want to make him comfortable as possible as well as myself. It will be our first encounter. How should we go by this engagement? How is it done in Morocco? We plan to marry here in the states then later in Morocco. so that our families would both have a chance to participate. Traditional weddings from our own cultures. Fun right? Any way, thank you all in advance and any additional information will be gladly accepted :)//en.yabiladi.com/topics/help-44-3994818-3994818.html#msg-3994818 Fri, 05 Jun 2026 05:10:27 +0200 Phorum 5.2.15
