I have a question is my case strong. I have all evidences os marriages with proofs. But this median wage rate& working 30 hours will cause problem in getting OWP for my spouse?

Working 30 hours is not really a typical amount and you seem to have been attempting to be paid the median amount this raises some red flags as to whether this is an authentic job or some form of arrangement with the employer is involved.
