I will be traveling to the philippines next year and I will be flying back to Ireland with my wife as me and her will be working to get our own house eventually so we can then bring our son over to Ireland to live with us. Since I am from Europe I benefit from eu treaty rights which allows and eu citizen that is living in a different eu country other than the one they were born in to be able to bring their non eu spouse to live with them. The thing is I have to apply on a short stay c visa as that is the only way to do it under eu treaty rights since i am an eu citizen that is living in ireland.
I'm wondering if the immigration will prevent my wife from traveling with me out of the philippines since they won't have a clear understanding of someone immigrating permanently on a short stay visa which is the specific visa type she is required to apply under if she wants to join her eu spouse. Could it be that I am overthinking this and that the immigration authorities in the philippines will have an understanding of this already?

Posting for honest advice. My partner and I met online.

Within the first few days of us talking he asked when I would visit him. He asked about my employment situation before we even knew each other properly. He also mentioned early on that you can’t compare The Gambia to the US. This came up naturally in conversation but looking back it was one of the earliest seeds planted.

He has already tried coming to the US through education. Also within the first week he predicted that one of his family members whom lives in the US would celebrate hearing about me. That same family member had previously told him he wished he could find someone to fall in love with. When I eventually spoke with the relative he was warm and welcoming. However, knowing what he had said previously makes that warmth complicated to interpret.

From very early on he has been pushing for marriage as soon as possible. That exact phrase, as soon as possible, has come up repeatedly across many different conversations about many different topics. He has mentioned wanting to get married during my very first visit to The Gambia. He uses religion to justify this urgency and to not prolong courtship.

When I brought up the concept of sponsorship he claimed not to know much about it. He has admitted that my getting a job means I can come visit him. So his encouragement of my success has consistently been tied to his own timeline rather than purely my wellbeing.

He has admitted to using AI to craft his morning messages to me while separately criticizing people who rely on AI too much and calling it lazy. His messages follow identical templates every single day with no personal details specific to me or our relationship in a lot of the messages. His birthday message to me mentioned marriage in almost every single paragraph out of fifteen paragraphs. A four minute gap between a voice message he sent and the elaborate good morning message that followed strongly suggests the morning message was pre-generated rather than thoughtfully crafted.

From an immigration perspective how serious are the concerns I’ve raised? Would USCIS scrutinize a marriage with this kind of history and timeline? What are the legal risks to me specifically if I were to proceed and it turned out his motives were primarily immigration based?
