Hello! 

Did any American Christian woman marry Pakistani Muslim man in Pakistan and there visa got approved from US Embassy Islamabad?

I’m asking because I have read on some forum that US Embassy Islamabad doesn’t think that Muslim man from Pakistan can marry Christian woman from America? 

P.S. I am Pakistani Muslim who Married American Christian in Pakistan 2 months ago. Our marriage is legal here and registered as well plus Attested from Foreign Office of Pakistan as well.

Thank You!

Congrats to the new couple :) I  have gone through the following links based on Immigrant visas and I didn't get to read anything about embassy/consulate in Islamabad, Karachi, Peshawar & Lahore not accepting applications from Pakistani Muslim married to American Christian. I would like you to send me the link to the website where you've read it because if it's true then it will help me assist others in similar situation.

Anyways my personal opinion is US Embassy/ Consulate will not judge your relationship based on religion but it's all about the genuinity of the marriage and how you guys will adapt coming from different backgrounds. I am a Hindu and married a Christian and I was approved. Be strong and your application will be approved. Good Luck :)

I read that post. Again it goes by case by case and they put AP on mostly all cases. For few applicants it can take days, weeks and months and very rarely years. I am from India and I was put on AP too.

Yeah I know that put everyone on AP too. But what I don’t understand is that why they will question the legality of marriage papers wen it is legal according to Pakistan’s law and legally registered. 

Ofcourse, it must be backed by proofs of ongoing relationship.

Sometimes it's this, they might legally get married by law and might have all papers but the embassy still scrutinize by looking at age gap, police records etc. They are trained to do that. SO have you guys filed for I-130 yet ?

Yeah we have filed i-130. 

She came last year and stayed with me for 3 months. Came here this year for 3 months and got married. No age difference im 27 she is 24. We dnt have any previous marriages. Dont have any kids. Plus she is planning to come back again now in couple of days. The only Red Flag we have is different religion. Apart from that, we both have solid proofs of bonafidr marraige and ongoing relationship.

Your case looks good and I still don't know why they think religion as a red flag but it's good that you guys have solid evidence. It will be better if she can attend the interview with you. Consulate/Embassy will allow it and hope that puts more weight on the process
