Hello everyone!

Hello there! Wow, what a great site with so much helpful information. My name is Arwen and the reason I 'm here is that sooner or later my partner and I will be filing for the K1 Fiance visa. For now, I'm just starting to gather some information on how we are going to go about doing it. It looks like a right grueling process!

I am a British citizen but have been living in Italy for the past 14 years and my partner is a US citizen. We met on line a year ago and I made my first journey to visit him just a few weeks ago. We spent three glorious weeks together and I've decided to go back to see him at Christmas.

I have read up on all the requirements and we seem to meet them all, the only thing that immigration could see as a problem is the fact that we have quite a large age gap. I'm 34 and he is 52 but we love eachother and I have reason to believe that we are going to take our relationship much further. He is just a normal everyday working guy, he is not rich, so immigration can not accuse me of wanting to marry him for his money!

What do you lot think? Could it be a problem? Has anyone found themselves in a similar situation?

Many thanks for reading my post

Age gaps are generally not a problem.

Age gaps are generally not a problem.

If there is a significant gap they will probably examine further. Also imagine the ages reversed. If it were a 34 year old man and a 52 year old woman that could be an issue. The woman is 'too old,' to have kids and the guy is stating he is pretty much ok with not having kids if he never had them before.

52 year old guy. Was he ever married before? Why would a much younger woman want to commit to an older guy?

I don't believe they can use an age gap as the basis of a denial, but I'm sure they check closer when certain situations are out of the norm.

I don't think you will have a problem. There are people on here who are in their 40's and 50's who have fiancees/wives that are in their 20's
