Your age shouldn't be an issue. As long as you have a strong case, and you already have a child, you shouldn't have any issues.

What visa are you talking about?

You posted this in the tourist visa section; I doubt it matters for Ireland, but in some countries, it is difficult for a young person to get a tourist visa, especially with a girlfriend and child in the USA. For Irish people, it can be difficult because the embassy will wonder why he cannot just use the visa waiver program.

For a fiance or spousal visa, as you are over 18 there should not be a problem.

You've posted under tourist visa.

You cannot use a tourist visa for your fiancee to enter the US and remain. That's immigration fraud.

Furthermore, the spouse of a US citizen does not automatically get citizenship. They must be a green card holder for 3 years before qualifying for US citizenship based on marriage to a US citizen.

Read the Guides. The button is at the top of this page.

Here is a quick snapshot of the path you might want to take: You can bring your fiancee over on a fiancee visa (K-1 visa). You get married. Then you have to apply to adjust his status to get a conditional green card. 90 days before the conditional green card expires, you apply to remove to condition on his green card. After 3 years of having a green card and being married to you, he can apply for US citizenship.

Age will not be a problem.

Age does not matter, though I am assuming you realize that a CR-1 is for couples who are already married, so you either need to marry before applying or else apply for a K-1 (fiance visa).

What matters is evidence of your relationship. It sounds like you probably have that.

That's right age doesn't matter. You will not have any problem when it comes to your age. Well, an IR-1 visa is for a spouse of a US citizen that has been married to the US citizen for two (2) or more years. The IR-1 is basically the same as the CR-1 except that upon arrival in the United States the holder of an IR-1 visa is an unconditional permanent resident with the immediate right to work. There is no conditional period of residence and the IR-1 holder does not need to file to have his/her residence made permanent. IR-1 holders usually receive their green card in the mail 2 - 3 months after arrival.

***** Moving from Tourist to CR-1 visa forum as OP stated that is the visa they are considering *****

In your case, age should not matter much, as you'll have lots of bonafide relationship evidence from your three years together. There may be an issue with financial support (the I-864 form) unless you make remarkable money for such a young person, so you probably will need to look into a co-sponsor, but age itself won;t be an issue.

There might be one slight issue regarding statutory rape if an 18 year-old has sexual . . . um . . . relations with a 17-year-old.
