Is my case complicated?

[gsm38 0]

Hello everyone!

 

My girlfriend and I are about to start our K-1 journey and I was hoping to get some insight as to whether our case is a complicated one or if we should be ok. Here's our background:

 

- Gay couple . F/F. 

- 25 and 38 years old.  (Is our age difference an issue?)

- Brazil/Tennessee 

- Been together for aprox. 1 year.

- Have visited my gf in the US and stayed with her (and her family) twice in the last year and she's coming to stay with me in Brazil for 3 months in a few weeks.

- I have lived in the US before under different visas and have NEVER overstayed any of them. I've held the following visas:

1. J-1
2. H2B (two of them)
3. H1B (valid for 3 years, only stayed 8 months by choice)
4. Several B1/B2 visas. (Have been in the US as a tourist over 10 times)

 

We are having a lot of anxiety as we are a gay couple going through this process in a very conservative state. Is this something we should worry about?

 

Thank you all in advance!

I don't  see any problem with your k1 application. I've  seen a lot of same sex couple go through k1 smoothly. Just include all evidences needed and enjoy the ride!

Hello I am Brazilian and at social media(Whatsapp/facebook) we have groups and communities to help, let me know if you want to join please(private message).

I do not see any problem, you girls have a lot of proof and Brazil is not a K-1 high fraud country, so just close your eyes, cross your fingers and apply! Good lucky!!

I don't think it's an issue as long as you have a strong relationship and good evidence to support your case, which you already do..so don't worry...good luck

The state may be conservative but the visa is performed at the federal level and same-sex marriage is very much ok, that should be no issue whatsoever. As others have said, put your package together well and just wait out the timeline for approval, you have considerably more proof of relationship than my wife and I had, and also have a much smaller age gap and we sailed through our process.

 

Good Luck!

Thank you for this, Randy! I'm feeling a bit less anxious now.
