Hi Tangier Morocco;

 

In Casablanca the Ds5535 process takes 4 months to 6 months. the average is 4 months , 120 days.

We have a Moroccan whatsup group chat ( all moroccans who got ds5535), if you would like to join us, that way you can have an idea of who gets updates and who is issued a visa.

Let me know if you would like to join.

Currently the consulate in Casablanca is still processing August ds5535. 

A women just got her visa issued on December 15th after 4 months of waiting.

I have a question please .does everybody from Morocco gets ds5535?? Thank you

No not everyone. It seems that people from certain regions like northern Morocco or depending on what their occupation is, are likely to get the form. It seems pretty random though.
