We have been married a year. SHould we have registered our marriage (here in US) in Morocco? Or at the consulate here? thanks!!

If there is a benefit to you or your spouse that you wish to obtain (such as if Morroco offers spouses automatic citizenship as a result of marriage, pension benefit, etc...) then by all means.... If there is no benefit derived then why?

BE WHO YOU ARE AND SAY WHAT YOU FEEL, BECAUSE THOSE WHO MIND DONT MATTER AND THOSE WHO MATTER DONT MIND

YOU CANT CHANGE THE PAST BUT YOU CAN RUIN THE PRESENT BY WORRYING OVER THE FUTURE

TRIP.... OVER LOVE, AND YOU CAN GET UP

FALL.... IN LOVE, AND YOU FALL FOREVER

I DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT, JUST NOT THE ABILITY

LIKE THE MEASLES, LOVE IS MOST DANGEROUS WHEN IT COMES LATER IN LIFE

LIFE IS NOT THE WAY ITS SUPPOSED TO BE, ITS THE WAY IT IS

I MAY NOT BE WHERE I WANT TO BE BUT IM SURE NOT WHERE I WAS

registering creates a family book . The family book enables you guys to get divorced easily in Morocco and it also enables you to be able to put kids if you have them into the book as well..

When I got married in July, we were registered by the court and the adoul. For the US, unless you are getting things changed then I would have it registered, but definately have it registered in Morocco because depending on where you go, they do hassle you to see supporting documents of your marriage. Hope this helps

Have a great Thanksgiving
