They are a small team, with a lot of requests. If they spent their time answering questions by email and on the phone, they would have even less resources to work on visas. They will not answer your questions if the information can be found on their website or Information Center. If nothing has changed since your last communication with them, they won't lose their time and repeat their answer.

Sit down together and analyze your pros and cons. Don't forget the cost of traveling and maintaining two households if you go back to the UK. Don't forget the cost of health insurance if you decide to stay in the US... In your situation, I would move ASAP, get married and file before the fees increase, switch to a menu of rice and beans (or any other frugal option you prefer), try to get a job offer/try to expedite the EAD (no guarantee, but free to ask...). You already are at the finish line, make the next lap together... Best of luck!

The required documents will be listed in the reciprocity schedule for your country. Look it up here: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country.html/

How old is she? Are you an American citizen? What visa did she have to move to the USA? Does she intend to live in the USA?

Look at pages 2 and 35 https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/assets/documents/2023-Nov/Carrier Information Guide ENGLISH.pdf

My documents/birth certificates are similar to OP's situation, but with less variation in last names. I only submitted the birth certificate from the place I was born (as described on the reciprocity schedule), and then wrote a note on why the name on my passport was slightly different [birth certificate lists me as Anna Barbara Christina Daniella Estella WHITE SMITH (not my real name, obviously, but similar structure with 5 first names), but my passport and my all IDs are only displaying Anna SMITH, and have been for all my life]. Also listed all names on the forms under other names used, when required, and requested my police certificate with all names being checked. Never shared with them the other birth certificate, since it was not required, and might have created more confusion.

Calm down, you could lose the envelope in transit and they would find a way to look you up. Travel safe, bon voyage!

You would still need to meet each other after being married, before filling your petition. A marriage has to be consummated (=being in the same location together, nothing more) to be valid for immigration purposes.

You'll have to find a way to meet in a third country then. Start with a list of countries Moroccans can visit visa free/visa on arrival, and see where you'd be able to go. There's most probably a Caribbean country that will fit the bill. The exemption you're talking about is for extreme cases (think someone in an iron lung); while Morocco îs not the most gay-friendly location, plenty of "friends" of the same gender go for tourism, or to meet others. You won't be asked about your sexual orientation at the border (not applicable though, since you're not allowed to travel there at this time). Also, please, please, meet each other, ideally a few times, before deciding to marry. There are some things that you can only see/verify in person. @Jeanne Adil might be able to give you extra feedback from her experience with the Embassy in Morocco.

Have you ever met in person?

Maybe @jan22 could help OP by explaining the best way to proceed.

I missed that. In a way, she is lucky she was able to travel on the wrong extension letter since they filed. Now, time to fix everything...

"we applied for the permanent " - which form did you file? do you have a copy of what you submitted?

@Zumbadaddy : depending on where you live, what was filed/documents she has in hand, you might be able to pick her up at a Canadian airport and cross at a land border. If you are further from the border, the boarding foil might be more economical (in time, and in money).

If you're getting married, you might as well get married legally and enjoy the benefits of the spousal visa. If you absolutely want an American Court wedding, do an online Utah marriage and then the religious ceremony and party there. Getting married, but not really married, is not going to bring you any positives. It will be much more expensive, and longer, to refile for a spousal visa after the fiancé visa is denied for already being married... Just get married.

It tells you exactly what will happen: "Photo will be taken at ASC".

Reminder that the name/s on her airlines ticket will have to match the name/s in her passport/s.

Yes, I did. The documents required will depend on the bank. Since you posted your question in the Canada forum, and if you are still in Canada, you might also look into opening a USD account while in Canada, from an institution with American ranches (Desjardins, RBC - can't say for sure about TD, they were useless back when I moved). Can be useful to transfer funds more easily, open line of credit, etc.

Why wouldn't they believe her? They can take her biometrics again and confirm she is who she says she is... That being said, if you search the forums, you will find many people who have had to request a boarding foil. Good to be prepared, but even better not to lose the card.

It means someone is looking at your file. Could be because it needs further processing, could be because end is near, no one can guess. Also, please do not type in all caps, no need to shout at people volunteering to help.

As asked by @Boiler, what was the worst you could have served? It matters.

When will your spouse become a citizen?

Just refile as soon as possible. Make sure he gets the proper vaccinations this time He shouldn't travel until he has AP in hand.

How long do you want to be separated? Traveling without his Advance Parole, he will not be able to travel back to the US.

Yes, before filing, you need to consummate the marriage [being in the same physical location after the marriage, nothing else is required].
