I mean...this isn't strictly true. They absolutely can reject it, if THEY don't believe it's genuine. Just search on here and you'll find many instances of visas being rejected for this exact reason.

 

That's not to say the OP should worry - there's no value in that - but there's also absolutely no guarantee, unlike you seem to be suggesting.

Thank you, will see if what we gave them is enough evidence to make a decision. Insha'Allah

I didn't add him to my IRS taxes hope that doesn't cause a delay. I'm going to go see him Insha'Allah this month hopefully he can come back with me. Also I don't show my age but in paper it's there 🤦‍♀️

I wouldn't bank on him coming back this trip.

It will be approved eventually tho. It might take time, But tbh this age gap is very common in Pakistan. My husband is 8 years older than me my sister's husband is 12 years older than her but both don't even look older. 

Quite different when the woman is 20 years older.....

Here is a thread on administrative processing in Islamabad.

Perhaps it will give you a better understanding on what you can expect?

Yes, we are facing that unfortunately.  Thanks. We leave all in God hands and hope they can see we are a genuine family with the papers he turned in.

You don't know the inside stories. What I know is if it's true, it'll eventually be approved.

It's gonna be difficult for sure. But I have seen people here who were approved with the same age difference. And usually it's true that Pakistani men do not even marry a woman one year older but I do have cousins back home who married 10 years older in the same country. So it's not impossible.

Its very common  in pakistan to get struck in  situation  like are facing, the key  is spend as much  as  time together  as possible,  age difference  is a red flag 🚩 but same religion  is a big  plus too. So hang in there, and go with the system,  but if worst comes  to worst then get a lawyer and file for mandamus.

Insha'Allah, thank you!

Don't worry you'll get approved eventually. If the marriage is bonafied they can't reject it

Not necessarily accurate. There are some bonafide relationships that do get denied -mainly because evidence was scarce, or choppy. It doesn't mean OP will get rejected, but they might.

True. But since they are married they can file again in the worst case scenario right

I'll keep you all posted, just got talking to  friend that's a lawyer and need to follow AP waiting protocol and see what's the outcome.  Insha'Allah all will be fine regardless of what they decide.
