Hi MaryL, welcome to the forum. I'm not exactly sure where CIC draws the line for age difference But in a country like Morocco where marrying an older woman is not the norm i would guess it's about 6+ years. One thing that may make a difference is if the woman is still in her child-bearing years then maybe they won't scrutinize it too much. I don't think it makes much of a difference if you have your own home or not. I guess it would only matter if the VO questions your living arrangements for when your husband arrives.MaryL said:Hi all, sorry this is my second attempt to get some answers on here. I apologize if I am in wrong place. My husband and I had some questions. I am sponsoring him from Morocco. Is there a line that CIC draws for age difference. Ours is less than 20 yrs but in some photos he looks older. Also do I need to have my own home to sponsor? As my plan was to rent an apartment closer to his pr approval. We can expect a wait of 5-6 months once his app gets to Rabat? I did hire a lawyer but I feel I could have done a better job, saved time and money. Anyhow thanks in advance for any replies. Best wishes to all!
Correct, it takes about 5-6 to hear something once your files reaches Rabat. Although they did call my husband after a couple months to ask him about an address in his forms
When did you send in your application? Why did you end up hiring a lawyer? Did you feel you had much red flags?
Good luck!
