But your in the UK and the standards are different by the country whats ok in the UK may not be in India.

UK has less burdens especially being ESTA country.

i know every country is different i wasnt desputing that. I never said cause its ok in the UK it must be ok in other countries you assumed i said that which i never.. I just said i dont think that length of time was the sole reason for the denial... Yes there were other factors that flagged up the 5years may of been contributing factor but do i think it was the sole reason for denial? no i do not... You looked way to far into my comment and was assuming i was comparing india to the UK which i was not

The whole process is sad.. age religion sex this should not play a factor we dont pick who we love. All rules should be the same one interview shouldnt determine our lives. Red flags are a joke fraud happens no matter what. People are people this process needs to be fixed doesnt matter if its a k1 or a cr1 they find excuses if they want to.

Do you guys have a large age difference and/or cultural/religious difference?

I do not have religious or cultural difference, I am 13 years older than her. I have seen 20 years older/ younger getting Visas from other countries. Religious, age and cultural differences should not be the issues.

The one thing that I have noticed in the many similar threads I have seen on this forum is that the OP inevitably knows the main reason or reasons and for whatever reason does not wish to share at all, or it becomes like pulling teeth to get an answer.

I can think of a few reasons, no idea if they are the real reasons, but unless the OP wishes to come clean then we can just go on and on for pages speculating.

Exactly this. And really, regardless of the real reason, OP has been advised of his options.

I wish I knew more than other than I described on here. What other odd things are there? I would like to know if there were any in my case. I do not want to make more mistakes or do something which will cause any problems in filing CR-1.I appreciate your input and would like to hear more suggestions and reasons.

Thank you

You said you were Sikh and she is Hindu. That is a religious difference. Don't lie, man.

But anyway, Boiler is 100% right. If you don't want to be forthcoming then there is no chance we can help.
