Congrats, Nora! :dancing:

I believe your fiance will still be able to make that date. Cairo isn't the most reliable but once they're done they move pretty quickly. I'm betting he'll have the visa in his hands by the beginning/middle of next week.

Congrats again and best wishes for a wonderful reunion! (F)

We were planning on him coming July 11th... I hope that is still possible.... If the passport had arrived with a VISA on it TODAY then he could have bought his ticket, he has it reserved at a travel agent there.

Inshallah soon, everything happens for a reason, although im clueless now what this reason is ;)

My husband has the same thinking. The last time I was in Morocco he wanted us to go to the Consulate. I kept telling him they wouldn't see us without an appointment. He said just tell them that you are an American and they HAVE to help you. We argued about it and ended up taking a train all the way to Casa. We waited in line and they only would let us go to the window but the guy wouldn't help us. Wouldn't even look up any info on his case. He was a real A-hole. Told us to send a freak'in email!!!!
