Age Difference

[MMarc 0]

Do you think the Embassies have a rule about giving a BLUE SLIP at the interview, if the age difference is far a part?

No but they do tend to abide by the host-country's common traditions/customs (if any).

MMarc,

My wife is 16 years younger than I am... No questions were asked.

If they do they will never indicate it as such....

Age difference goes the other way... I am the female USC.

I am 14 years older than my now-husband.

When we attempted a K1 in Jordan in Sept 09, the CO actually told him I was told for him... even asked him what he paid me to bring him to the US. Sent everything back to DOS for further review. (I made the mistake of not being at the interview).

On Oct 6, 2009, we married in Jordan and are now attempting a CR1. Pray for us!

This is apples and oranges. You're speaking of a reverse age difference in a country where it is culturally unusual. In China, the man 10 to 25 years older is culturally common.

Age difference is not a big deal actually.But it would take longer time when the k-1 visa was processed in USCIS. When you get my interview in Guangzhou, the officer cares about how you two met and whether the relationship is true. If you don't have the believable answers (normally it is not good if you two met by internet, or haven't known each other for a period, ect.), the age difference would be a question for you, maybe a reason to delay your visa or refuse you.

Based on my extensive experience with many countries and specifically with Guangzhou, I would encourage the reader to totally disregard this post as "misinformed". Age differences do not delay USCIS approvals. When you get to the interview at Guangzhou, the officer will care about whatever they decide the case file indicates they will "care about". Usually an 10 to 20 year age difference will not be a red flag.

How about with the tables turned and the woman being 5 1/2 years older than the male USC?
