getting married with a 18 years old US citizen? suspicious?

[DanielMDQ 1]

at least i look around 23 lol, people can't believe when i tell them i'm 28

@juanandcami so cool that ur girlfriend is from Uruguay!

Hmm...I (the petitioner) am 19, and my fiance is turning 19 in 1 month. We met online when we were 16. Will this be a problem? Sorry for asking in your thread, OP! but your question made me have doubts. I hope they don't look at us as too young. Does "underage" even count if we are both the same age?

no, this would not seem bad or underage as there is no age difference even if you both had sex at 16, or 14 for that matter. it is more due to legality of having sex. typically even for statutory rape, it is sex with a minor if you are older than 21... or more than 3 years older, or some stipulation like this. ie, 17 and 19 year old is ok, but 17 and 22 year old is not ok for sex, it is rape. Warning: check your local laws...

I'm the girlfriend! hahah my fiance, the male, is from Uruguay

We met on an online game so I'm worried they might think we are childish.

It's great how you guys met through an online negotiation. It's the serendipity of life.

L+T, thank you! knowing that makes me feel much more at ease.

I just wish i could maker her to come to live with me here in Argentina, or to anywhere in Europe since i'm an european citizen too, i hate this process,is way too stressful, and energy draining,especially for person with high levels of anxiety like myself.... but her parents wants her to get her university education in the US...

Depending on which country, spousal visas to Europe are just as difficult. Trust me. I've tried to get my wife here.

However, legal age in most of Europe is 16 so you might not have a problem on that end.

No, I doubt it. You're both fully legal to marry, and you're close in age. The OP is 27 and his fiance is 18.. Meaning she was underage when he was 26, but both of you were underage at the same time. Don't worry.

I agree with what others have been saying, I don't think there will be any problem. Also your age difference isn't that huge, my wife and I are 13 years apart (she's older than me) and that never even came up at the consulate in BA during our interview.

Amigo, no one here can say that, and no one here has any business saying that.

Buenos Aires is hardly known as a tough consulate. There's a bigger difference between being 13 years apart in age if you're 29 and she's 16 than, for example, if you're 39 and she's 26. The younger the couple is, the greater the disparity in many areas of life.

I reiterate that the OP should take every measure to fend off the "minor" business BEFORE it blows up in his face.

Immigration could have reservations about the age gap, but there's lots of 80 year old guys marrying 20 year old filipinos

Were you just exaggerating, or are you jealous...

Maybe you could give us some examples of members here on VJ that fall into that category??? Please?
