1. Read your appointment instructions carefully. Your letter or email controls the exact date, time, location, and case-specific requirements.
2. Register your document delivery address. Follow the registration instructions provided by the consulate so your passport can be returned after the interview.
3. Schedule the required medical examination. Only a physician approved by the U.S. Consulate may perform the exam.
4. Collect original civil documents and photocopies. Documents not in English generally require a certified English translation.
5. Organize relationship and financial evidence. Bring the evidence required for your specific fiancé, spouse, or family-based visa category.
6. Arrive prepared for security screening. Bring only necessary documents and follow the consulate’s current rules for electronic devices and accompanying persons.

The U.S. petitioner or sponsor normally may not attend the interview unless the consulate specifically requests their presence. An interpreter or one helper for an elderly, disabled, or minor applicant may be allowed under the consulate’s published rules.

Your appointment instructions are the final authority. Commonly requested items include:

Incomplete affidavit of support documents and missing original civil documents are common reasons a case cannot be completed on interview day.

Police certificates must meet the age, residence, and validity rules stated in the applicant’s interview instructions. The Casablanca post instructs applicants age 16 or older to bring the required police certificates, a photocopy, and a certified English translation.

Review the current Morocco police certificate instructions

Schedule the examination as soon as you receive your interview date. The Casablanca instructions state that the medical exam should be completed about one week before the interview. If the exam is not completed before the appointment, the interview may be rescheduled.

Only a physician accredited by the U.S. Consulate may perform the immigration medical examination. Do not schedule examinations with more than one panel physician.

The State Department’s Casablanca instructions currently list a base physical-exam fee of MAD 700 for adults and MAD 500 for children under age 15. X-rays, blood tests, other required testing, and vaccinations may cost extra. Confirm the current total directly with the panel physician when scheduling.

The examination may include a medical history review, physical and mental health assessment, tuberculosis screening, chest X-ray, blood testing, gonorrhea testing, and any vaccinations required for U.S. immigration.

• Use a simple folder system so original documents, photocopies, translations, and relationship evidence are easy to locate.
• Review names, dates, prior marriages, addresses, travel history, and important relationship milestones before the interview.
• Answer the consular officer’s questions truthfully and directly. Do not memorize a scripted story.
• Do not make nonrefundable travel plans until the visa has been issued and the passport has been returned.
• If the physician gives you a sealed medical envelope, do not open it.
• Carry any medical X-rays with you when you first travel to the United States if the physician instructs you to do so.
