I have read in varying places that an apostille is needed on all documents that need to be translated here in Morocco for the K-1 Visa interview. Is this true??

From what I have been reading, the Consulate has not been asking for these, yet. Some of the translators, however, are staring to get these done. I'm assuming, that sometime in the near future, the Consulate will be asking for them along with the documents. When they do, it will be explained/requested in Packet 3 (I believe). The Consulate does have a list of preferred translators, and they will be the ones most on top of the requirements. One VJ member was told @ their medical, and I believe by their translator, that the apostille was now required, however the Consulate did not ask for it. That is why I am assuming it will be required soon. They will probably have a cut-off date according to when the petition was filed. Best of luck!

Thank you! We will make sure to use one of the preferred translators. I agree, they would probably be the most informed....
