HI all

I am new here so bare with me. I met my wonderful man Kai 3 years ago on world of warcraft and have been together 2 years...We have a 21 year age gap and are in love love love. I know on the age gap forum I am in many have received their K1 visas with no question to the age gap except one but they also had other issues besides that and they did not receive the visa

has anyone else had issues with them asking about the age gap. We have heaps of poof pictures you name it and are prepared for this to come up just in case. I was just curious if any of you experienced this and how did it go.

PS will be filing first part in 3 weeks CAN'T WAIT!

Some people have had problems but if you have a bona fide relationship and can prove it, you should be fine.

There are many couples here on VJ who had successful visa journey's with significant age gaps.

Welcome to VJ :star:

It all depends on whether you are Horde or Alliance. USCIS doesn't like Horde because they smell bad.

I believe by the picture and profile that Cham (female) is the older one.

Nice job snagging that younger man ;)

Good luck to you.

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip

They cannot deny you because of the age gap, but they can rake your case over with a fine tooth comb. Just build a solid case and you should be fine, as others have mentioned.

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
