Congrats Noura!

I don't hang out in this forum. I know what the 221g is (sort of). For educational purposes - what kind of a delay does this mean? If any?

Just trying to learn...not meaning to hijack and not wanting to appear nosy....

221g for administative processing is pretty standard issue in Casablanca (for males at least). It can mean waiting anywhere from 1 week to several months for security checks before they will issue the visa.

:dance::dance: That is wonderful Noura! I can't believe it was over that fast. And he may have his visa before Fouad even gets his interview on thursday, wow. That is great news. I hope fouad's goes as smoothly as said's did. I am so very happy for you both. Have you already made plans on how long he will wait after he gets the visa to come here? Just curious :blink: lol. I am crazy to get fouad here, and have you found any cheaper tickets??

Hugs, Chery
