My wife is a US citizen and applying for the dv lottery

[RightClicK 17]

Hey guys ,

As some of you know that my wife is a US citizen and we have applied for a cr1 visa and got denied ,now am trying to apply for the dvlottery and i have some questions.

in the form they ask about my material status, i don't know if i should choose married or legally separated because my wife isn't eligible to have a visa .

2nd , should i even bother or they might refuse me later for being married to a US citizen anyways ?

Thanks ...really waiting for your answers

Are you legally separated? Just living apart doesn't count. If you are still married and have not made legal arrangements for a official separation, you are married.

Being married to a USC does not make you inelligible for the lottery. However, the reason you got denied the CR-1 may also make you inelligible for this visa (for example if it was an overstay or other ban).

No , we aren't separated , we are married but thank you i just wasn't sure what to do or if i should list her in there because she is American .

As in for being inelligible , i'm not inelligible , i have never been to the US , i havn't got to see my first child whom got born 2 months ago yet.

I also would like to know if i should apply from there for IR1 or wait till my wife come here n wait 6 months then apply from here...tell me my best chances please.

Thanks

Why were you denied the spouse visa?

Why were you denied the spouse visa?

They accused us of lying and supporting fruaded documents also all of the documents we sent was notarized here at the foreign ministry and the marriage certificate was even notarized at the US embassy and attached to the Translated english documents but me and my wife know the real reason, its the age difference.

You are welcome to apply for the DV , you have a higher chance of getting hit by lighting but maybe you are lucky in that. The instructions says to list your spouse even if they don't plan on coming. See page 3 of the PDF instructions at Instructions

If you have been accused of fraud then you are ineligble for a visa and you will have to fight that no matter what visa you are trying to get

Yea but the problem is , my wife is very sick and in bed, and i don't have picture of her with that qualifications they are asking for so i don't know what to do.

As in for the denial, it was attached here in some topic, let me find it and give you a link.

Get someone to take a picture of here with a digital camera and send it to you. You can use their photo editor to crop it. No one says it has to be done by a professional. It just has to meet the requirements.

I was troubled by your post Samonline. I remember your struggles to get a visa... and truly I am sorry. But what troubles me about your post is you saying something false here. You said you havent seen your 2 month old baby since it was born, here's where the troubled part comes in. You did not just have a child nor did your wife. I remember you posting how you wanted to get to USA for your wife's daughter who was having a child. So I wonder why now you are saying it is your child??? I see you do have a bit of a problem with keeping it real. Here is the thing I am not trying to attack you, I am trying to give you a word of advice and caution... Tell the truth, that is the only way you will ever get a visa! Best wishes to you and your wife and congratulations to the birth of your wife's grandaughter.

The DV Lottery will not solve your problem.

Your CR-1 was denied for fraud. If you win the DV Lottery, you will still need to show that you did not commit fraud in your CR-1 application.

ohh well...first of all thanks for your feels toward my situation , secondly i don't need to lie to anyone because i don't need anything from anybody so there is no reason for me to lie , and if i wanted to lie i would just ask about what i need to ask without mentioning my new born son or anything else , and as in for your confusion , my wife have been married before me , i said i have applied for a visa to see my stepchild's child , and i also have applied to see my son too , but i was denied again and there is something you need to know....not everyone NEEDS a visa WANTS it , I NEED visa to see my child or be with my wife because my wife can't live here because she has 4 kids and we just got the 5th together , but i really never wanted to go to the US , i love Egypt and the life i have in Egypt , i have a very nice job , i work for one of the biggest call centers in Egypt. i have my own house , i have a good life , i don't need to wash dishes in the US , and i wont have my family in the US so there is no need to miss all that and miss my friends whom i always find under my house and go play football with or hang out with , the way we tease , the way we live and dance , the places we go , the US would never make me feel the same no matter what , but here is the question , why would i agree to apply for a visa and leave all that ?...i guess you know the answer now.

If you don't want to live in the US, why are you applying for a DV?

Um... I think it's better to re-apply for the marriage visa with loads more proof.

If you had the time to really read what i said you would know why am applying for a visa , the names wouldn't matter cr1-ir1 or the dv lottery, i want to make it easier for my wife , she can't leave 4 kids there and come live in Egypt , or the cps would take her kids and she can't just abandon them and live here , so since i can move there , im moving there to make it easier for her, just stop thinking for once that everybody wants to live in the US and its the dream land.

Could it be that the immigration officer saw that this is how you felt & decided what the heck,

why allow someone to get here if this country is by perceived as this person as a misery?
