How to Begin Process of Sponsoring Wife (From Morocco to Canada)

[FamilyMan]

Hi All,

I am a Canadian Citizen residing in Ontario.

I got officially married in Morocco and got back 2 days ago. My wife is Moroccan (born and raised). For those interested in an extremely detailed account of how to go about getting married to a Moroccan woman, I would be glad to share the most up to date information.

The process in Morocco started on July 02, 2009 and I got married on July 11, 09 - 1 week and 2 days later. However this was not possible without the use of a Moroccon Lawyer and the one that I had used was also the daughter of the marriage authority (or Aaduul)

My question however is that I would like to begin the sponsorship process and just need some guidance on where to begin. All I have on me is my official Moroccan Marriage Certificate in Arabic and I was told it is recognized in Canada.

Can somebody please point me to where I can get comprehensive information on how to begin the sponsorship process and more specifically, sponsoring a Moroccan. I prefer Blog sites or personal sites over Government ones as they seem to have more up to date info or useful tips not often found on government sites

Thank you very much in advance

Regards
