Thanks!

 

We have a lot of face-time (not as much as I'd like obviously!) between when he lived with me for 3 months, then I was there for a month in May and another 7 weeks over the end of year holidays (leaving in 70 days and 13 hours, not that I'm counting!) that I'm hoping to extend to 10 weeks if my boss is going to be super amazing. 

 

Looking forward to startibg the process but it's scary st the same time! 

 

I think you'll be fine.  My husband and I  (we're a same-sex couple) have a 30 year age difference -- he's the younger.  There was never an issue with our application, either with USCIS or at the embassy in Rio de Janeiro.   When you file the I-129F, USCIS is looking for face time.  I had known my (now) husband for 2 years and had been to visit him 3 times in Brazil for a total of about 35 days.  Just provide evidence that you have been together such as airline boarding passes, passport stamps, any receipts from restaurants and hotels.  I submitted just a few pictures of the two of us together and about a dozen chat logs spanning the time we had known each other.  USCIS just looks at the evidence, they don't make any judgements.  The embassy official who does the interview for the K-1 visa is tasked with assessing the legitimacy of the relationship.  Since Australia is not a high-fraud country, and the culture is similar to the U.S. where your age difference is not all that unusual, I expect you'll have no problem being granted a visa.

 

Good luck in your journey!!

Great -- the more the merrier, but you seem to have ample face time!

Yes, it is a rollercoaster effect for sure, but it can also cement down an already solid relationship! 

 

My best to you! Keep us posted...

No, because if there was then fraudsters would try to circumvent the red flags and the agencies don't want to give them
advice on what not to do. It would defeat the purpose of catching fraudsters and sham marriages.
They do have romance scam warnings on their sites and some red flags are listed.
 

They also have a fraud prevention work sheet that the embassies use and compare cases with.
They are not for the public to see. I did see it.

Red flag status? Red Flags are basically indicators that may look questionable and sometimes suspicious. A 10 year age difference to someone in the UK may not be a big del marrying a man 10 years younger from a Muslim country or African country may get a closer look. That's all it means.

You say you only meet once that's a red flag. Visit spend time together. That's everyones #1 evidence.

I am 26 years older than my husband i lived with him from NOA2 approval to Visa pick up in his country (6 months) thats overcoming what they might feel is a red flag. No questions asked about age or anything they were happy I was still there in country.
