Not necessarily. Depends on your other circumstances, and in some cases where the beneficiary is from. You'll need to share more details if you want a better answer for your case.

Coz i read articles about being in a different Religion might or can be consider a red flag. It happens that my F is a JW and im a RC'. And his family and my family were aware of our differences.

JW? RC? Where are you both from? Is religion important to both of you, your families? Do you have other red flags (extreme age difference etc)?

it can be depends on the embassy

It can be a red flag, but it doesn't mean a denial. Likely, at interview they will ask about the difference of religion, make sure you talk about it with your fiance, discuss what religion, if any, you'd bring kids up in etc.,

We are aware of the differences , we're discussing it now actually while preparing to file. We have to deal with it in advance.

Bring kids up? Meaning?

Sorry. And THankYou for the response

The PI embassy is one of the more easy ones for K1 visas. Having lived together and not having a huge age difference also supports your case. I wouldn't be too worried if I were you.

She means what religious community are you planning for your future children to be part of (if any)?

Sorry. I didn't get that well.

Ah. Ok. In JWs kids have the right to choose later on. We'll just hope we wont encounter questions on this. ThankYou for the help.

You have no timeline. Depends on what country the immigrant is coming from and what religion/s you are talking about as well as cultural norms in the country from where the immigrant is coming from.

Good luck, God Bless and Merry Christmas!

Age difference can be overcome with evidence of a relationship and/or marriage. (We were a CR-1, married in the Philippines) The age difference between my wife and I is 36 years! Age differences are somewhat common in the Philippines. But I also accompanied my wife to the embassy in Manila for her interview. The consul asked me more questions that they did my wife. It never hurts to have the spouse or fiance present at the interview.

Good luck, GOD BLESS and Merry Christmas,

Yes, you're right. However, not having a large age difference is still one less thing to worry about for the OP.
