I've been talking with my fiance for about 4 years My American Fiancé will come the coming 10 Sep for one month and it's going to be her first realface time with me Is that enough facetime?  . We do have an age gap. I'm 12 years younger than her . I am 33 she's 45.  We talk everyday but from what I"m reading that might not be enough as chat evidence is weak for proof of relationship ( we use Facebook , Gmail , Whats app , skype ) also i have eveything as proofs , should we proceed to the K1 visa cause my fiancé work so hard and she will not have the time  to come back for a visit

One visit is below recommended number in your case.  You have red flags which can be overcome only by a lot of actual time together......Are you the same religion?  Is it customary for a 33 year old man to marry a 45 year old woman?  It is also not a good idea to marry on the first visit...

Thanks but i have all the emails and the facebook etc printed chat also im not young i have 33 years and we know each others since 4 years ago we have talked about the engagement,nt since years 

Like pointed out above,   you may have talked on internet for years but you have planned marriage and immigration before even meeting in person '

and although a month visit is good (a lot better  than 10 days or a week),   it is probably not enough with the other red flags

After all this is what Amercians are told on the US Tunisian embassy page

 

Many marriages between Tunisians and Americans are successful. However, individuals who enter into a relationship for the principal purpose of immigration to the United States are violating U.S. law and could face serious penalties, including fines and imprisonment.
In the Embassy’s experience, it is not uncommon for Tunisians to seek relationships with Americans solely for immigration purposes. Relationships developed via correspondence, particularly those begun on the Internet, are particularly susceptible to manipulation. The U.S. government urges Americans who meet Tunisians on the Internet or while touring the country, to take the time necessary to get to know them before considering marriage. Unfortunately, the Embassy has seen cases of abuse against American spouses, or marriages that end in divorce when the Tunisian acquires a green card or citizenship in the United States. These cases invariably occur when the relationship is based mostly on Internet communication and very little face-to-face interaction

and do not marry on 1st visit as that is a big red flag but if denied a K1 ,  you may have to marry later to prove a real relationship

The purpose of the k1 visa is ultimately marriage,  so if you aren't planning to marry then the k1 Visa is not for you 

YMMV

You still need multiple visits..and a lot of time together....Marrying on the first visit will be another big red flag.

I said that as the visa will probably be denied / we do  not know for sure but as you point out she is older,  you plan to marry and immigrate and have not met in person

and you can say not religious but if your parents are muslim ,  you know you are born into that religion

in Morocco it even says muslim on the national ID 

so,  look at yours
