K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresis Age difference a red flag

Just to say that the person at the consulate, while looking at my picture, was like "so, what is the age different between you two?" and, with a very suspicious look, she then had a look at his picture while I was answering "14 years". Right after that, she approved our visa.

 

They are jsut trying to make you feel super uncomfortable which you already are usually. Nothing to worry about if it is bona fide relationship. 

 

Presumably you are going through Paris?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresis Age difference a red flag

my fiance is 34 yrs older than me.. wink.png

during my interview last week, they never asked for any evidence like emails or any proof of ongoing relationship. they just checked on our photos and that's it! do not worry about the age gap issue. it won't matter as long as you have all the right and complete documents and you are smiling and confident during your interview. 

In the many years on being on this site this is the first time i have come across a much older Male finance from the Philippines.

 

There must have been some funny looks at the Consulate.

Naa isn't. She is American, past the age of having kids (Has 2 from her past marriage) and she is a Unitarian.

You seem to have hit all the buttons.

8 pages so can get confusing.

 

Rough order:

 

Married.

 

Left wife.

 

Relationship with another woman, not married but did produce a child.

 

That relationship finished.

 

New relationship with OP.

 

At some point his Wife initiated a divorce, when this happened and when it was finalised is not known but he is currently divorced.

She is aware he is divorced now, she was not previously.

Quitclaim deeds are in regards to property.  It means they jointly owned something and she's given up her rights to it (happens in divorces all the time).

 

Sorry... I got confused about which one he remembered he was married to.

Quite understandable.

He spoke with a lawyer and apparently this is a common mistake among k1 visa applicants. 

I have been on this site since 2004.

 

This is the first I forgot I was married I have seen.

 

Why do you think you have had so many comments about such a common issue?

Internet Romance and Marriage Fraud

 

Many U.S. citizens befriend Moroccans through Internet dating and social networking sites and these relationships often lead to marriage or engagement. While many of the marriages between U.S. citizens and Moroccans are successful, the U.S. Consulate General in Casablanca warns against marriage fraud. It is not uncommon for foreign nationals to enter into marriages with U.S. citizens solely for immigration purposes. Relationships developed via correspondence, particularly those begun on the Internet, are especially susceptible to manipulation. Often, the marriages end in divorce in the United States when the foreign national acquires legal permanent residence (?green card?) or U.S. citizenship. In some cases, the new U.S. citizen or permanent resident then remarries a wife he had divorced around the same time as he had entered into a relationship with the sponsoring U.S. citizen.

Some of the signs that an Internet contact may be developing a relationship with a U.S. citizen in order to obtain an immigrant visa through marriage are:

  • Declarations of love within days or weeks of the initial contact;
  • Proposals or discussions of marriage soon after initial contact;
  • Requests to the U.S. citizen to visit the foreign national?s home country soon after the declaration of love or proposal;
  • Responses to messages from the U.S. citizen friend are along the lines ?I love you/Sorry I missed your call,? or similarly one-sided conversations;
  • Once engaged, married, or an immigrant visa petition is filed, suddenly starts missing scheduled appointments to chat or call.

While chat rooms, dating, and social networking sites can be ways to make friends across international borders, the U.S. government urges U.S. citizens who meet foreign nationals on the Internet to keep in mind the signs noted above. Entering into a marriage contract for the principal purpose of facilitating immigration to the United States for an alien is against U.S. law and can result in serious penalties, including fines and imprisonment for the U.S. citizen and the foreign national involved.

 

The above is from the Moroccan web site, but the issues are common in other MENA countries.

 

You have heard red flags mentioned and you seem to have hit them all with the exception of having children.

 

It is very unusual to obtain a waiver for meeting, However let us say you do, it will be even harder persuading the Consulate that the relationship is legitimate. Please note that I do not doubt your feelings,

Passport and Debt

The only Debt I am aware of that has an impact is Child Support, anyway easiest solution as it is not very much would be to pay it off.

Terminal Friend

Well in Immigration timelines this will resolve itself.

Job

You will need to be making quite a few trips so I would give your Employer advance notice now that he or she needs to get there act together. Any business that is totally reliant on one employee has disaster written all over it.
