Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

Age restrictions?

I am a 55 year old woman and I am in love with a 27 year old man. I am applying for us citizenship as I had been married to a military guy and have lived and worked in the us for 10 years. The guy that I am in love with is here illegally. We would love to get married and make everything right and live here in the us. Will the age difference be a problem?

The age difference will be a problem. The Immigration Service examiner may find that the age gap to be a presumption of a marriage that was not entered into in good faith. You can overcome this negative finding by showing strong evidence of good faith marriage: Joint tax returns, shared health insurance, shared car insurance, utilities bills in both names, lease agreement in both names, etc.
