Hello,
Husband and I have bank accounts in Morocco. We have "power of attorney" to access each others bank accounts. The bank would not allow us to joint our finances together, but allow us to access each other's account individually. SO... When I left Morocco, my husband tried to PUT CASH in my account. They refused to let him do it. I am baffled. They say that I am not a Moroccan citizen. So our bank accounts are just "SITTING" there with no activity. That doesn't look good.
How do you commingle finances in such situations like that? They would not even let me co-sign for him a new vehicle, because I am not a Moroccan citizen.
NOW, I am going to raise hackles when I go back and argue with the bank people there. What's the point of having power of atty to access each other's banks?
SO, I changed my last name on my SS to my husband's last name. I am going to change my driver license last name to his as well. Is this bonafide enough?
We've been legally married in Morocco since June 30, 2022. I am making my 3rd trip back and sort this out with our banks.
If financial commingling helps with the case, and banks forbid it and only allows POA, then ... I am lost here.
Any help with this would be appreciated.
IMILI.
