Q21. When do you intend to arrive in the US.

Q 22. How long do intend to stay in the US.

Q27. Have you ever been in the US.
I've been lots of times. Should I list them all.

Could anyone advise me on how I should complete the following questions.

Thanks.

I think whith the CIS you answer honestly but as briefly as possible. I.E. "Do you know what time it is?" The best answer is "Yes" Not " It's three forty five" If they want more they will ask and why give them any extra materail to scrutinize?

Where can I download a copy of this form? I was looking at BCIS forms and fees and it wasn't listed?

Q21: I would actually list a date there... For instance if you want to try and get the soonest appointment then list Oct 10th or something like that.

Also, make sure on the Packet 3 where you sign it to put the same early date.

They seem to schedule your interviews based on what you put as your travel dates.

If you are in no hurry then don't put an actual date.

this really depends on which consulate you are using. my husband is from morocco and he isnt required to send the checklist or anything in before the interview date which he got with the packet 3.
so not everyone can put a date on that question.

Excellent! I just got back from a quick look-see. I'm not going through London, but I'm using this website for everything I can. You would not believe how much better it is than the Casablanca website.

Thanks,
Leslie

I was answering Davey's post and he IS going through London. London does accommudate travel times. Of course, it is no guarantee and they suggest you do not purchase tix before you get the visa.

Can't remember for certain but I think I put in a date about two
months from the date I was filling in the form
    >Q 22. How long do intend to stay in the US.
I put 'Permanently'

    >Q27. Have you ever been in the US.

I did, even though I had to use a continuation sheet

Hope this helps

Hi Linda,

This is the Casa/Rabat website. But go to consular services and it has the Casa information.

http://www.usembassy.ma/

Let me know what you think.
