Given the circumstances, the age difference will probably be irrelevant. They've been married for three years already, and since the marriage took place before the USC child turned 18, there shouldn't be a problem with him sponsoring both of them, so long as he's got enough income/assets.

1. From looking around it appears as long as he was under 18 at the time the "step-parent" relationship was created he can. Otherwise he would simply petition his mother, who would apply for a derivative visa for her husband (must like a K1 would bring their child)

2. Likely. It seems the "older woman" is usually more of an issue but that's when its a USC older woman so maybe not

3. no idea

4. no idea

I am the USC and my husband and I have a 16 year age difference. He came on a K-1 and we are doing just fine. Im pretty sure they look but as long as everything is in order, it should be fine.
