Anyone with experience can you tell me, or just give me indication if the below means I have big red flags?

I am 6 years older than my husband, is that a red flag?Huh WE are both in our 30s, (my husband is 30 I am 36), we are planning on having kids though, by all means, we want a family and if God give us (2 or 3 kids).

We never been married before, no kids from prior relationshup, also we did not date or have very serious relationship before we met. my husband was a professional athlete and he traveled a lot so he didnt want to settle down until he retired from sport. Me, I dated, but not much, i was busy with school and have very strict and traditional parents, even at 30 i could not just go out, always i had to tell my parents where i go and with whom, and usually had to be home by 11pm.

We have same religion, and similar background, lot of evidence of marriage, we had formal engagement party, and big traditional wedding. We know each other 1.5 year before engagement. Do you see any big red flag?

nope, no red flags. As long as one of you are eligible to be a sponsor it shouldn't be any issue.

I agree. 6 six years age difference is nothing at all to worry about. Nor is anything else that you mentioned. The big engagement party and traditional wedding are positives, hope you have photos from both of those.

It is probably OK. It partly depends what country the applicant is from. If the wife being 6 years older there is a big surprise, the visa officer will at least have questions about it. You seem to have enough other proof that this should still be OK, if it is an issue at all.

thank you for your answers. It makes me feel better to know that it may be ok. if the officer reviewing our file doesnt really check my date of birth he won't realize i am older hahaha we sent in many photos, and based on those, in no way he would think i am older, luckily i look very young :D
