The heart is blind, has no logic, and so often leads to the wrong decisions because of that. Only your mind can see & judge what is right for you. You don't use your heart to pick what course to do at University. You use your head to decide what's best for your future. Why not the same for marriage, which is a more important decision.

Yes you are right XB23 we make decisions with our heart and we end alone and hurt because of that. I don't want to do and stock on the walls thinking what I going to do. Marriage is a big decision and we think with the head special in this situation when the person you want to spent of your life is far away and you don't what that person do every day, even if you talk to them 2 or 3 times a day.

As an American married to a Moroccan and living in the US, I have a couple of suggestions for you. The visa process is a long one and an expensive one, whether you're married first or not. Because you've only met once so far, perhaps you should consider applying for a fiance visa. This allows the individual to qualify for a 3-month visa during which you can live together in the US and decide if you want to marry or not. You must marry within that 3-month time frame, or your boyfriend/fiance must return to Morocco. This would be a safe way for you to explore your relationship without a legal commitment of marriage and would allow your boyfriend to see what life is like here. We are involved with a large Moroccan community in our area, and believe me, many of the Moroccans here have been disillusioned with life in the states. So, anyway, consider the fiance visa. It gives you a chance to explore life together without the marriage right away.

That's to be expected when you go there with huge unrealistic expectations, thinking that you will become something, which is based on what you hear and see on screen, rather than the reality on the ground. Also it doesn't help when immigrant hide the truth out of pride from their family back home, in order to maintain the image that they are successful. Others naturally want to follow in their foot-steps, and migrate. Only later on to find out things are very different! They have themselves to blame.

No. They were simply wondering whether you're really a native Canadian or pretending to be. If you read your own comments, you will start wondering too.

Well those who committed immigration fraud should of thought about the consequences. How their actions is making it harder for their own compatriots to secure entry. Too many dishonest people. That's the problem.

Hi ...I am also marrying a Moroccan. If you are marrying in the states then YOU NEED  to file the petition. If you plan to marry in Maroc then HE needs to file. Google it. There is a lot of paperwork. Good luck!
