Even its a old case but I'm just checking id there are any option left.
I filled DV 2012 for my brother where I mentioned that he has dependent which is his wife.After he got his first letter , he submitted all the documents to KCC office at Kentucky. Then he got his second letter which also has his wife name in 'beneficiaries '.Things got twisted when he appeared on interview last week where first and foremost he was asked about his marriage.
He been told that he apply as 'single' and his document says he was already married a year (2011) before the application date and claimed to be fake marriage. He been told he cant get visa and try 'DV lottery' again.
We are very disappointed and trying to figure out what we have missed or it's them who just simply rejected without further investigating it. Here are few things that came in my mind.
As I mentioned, there is my sister in law's name in beneficiary so doesn't that tells that he is married ?
Is KCC supposed to cross check the information submitted during the application and one after the first letter. My assumption is my brother is not supposed to get the second letter if there was mismatch in martial status or any stats.
I also have no clue why he told him to try for lottery again if its fake and fraudulent . As rule says it permanent denial if someone make fake or fraudulent approach.
Its very disappointing that he spent so much time and money on it and everything went in vain.
My curiosity is despite what had happened, is there anything we can do so this case can be reviewed or taken for consideration or it would be better just to move on.
Do you think hiring an immigration attorney would worth trying or its too late?


All suggestions and comments are appreciated.

Help me understand:
While filling up DV lottery, what was the name of the wife?
After first letter, did he submit the same name as his wife or did he file as a single person?

Indrawati, Seems like when u applied for his DV u applied him as a single though he was married. R u sure u submitted ur sister inlaws pic too when applying for DV ? Many people do this because they are too lazy to find dependents pic and bio.
Still u could have arranged marriage no 2 ( with all photos as proof ) on later date and told them he got married later. Now the cat is out, there is nothing u can do abt it.

If u are DAMN sure u filled her name and pic too in the initial DV form, u can hire a lawyer and he can make them produce the original (electronic too) copy of the form. If u r beating abt the bush, sorry it wont work.

Don't lie now Indra! You did made a mistake while filling up the form or didn't produce enough evidence to prove the marriage.

During dv entry, it will ask if the applicant is married and if so one has to provide the detail info of the spouse and upload the DV photo of the spouse too. You said you mentioned his wife as a beneficiary, not sure what you mean by that. Are you sure you checked the married button, uploaded his wife's photo and filled in her biographic information? I don't think u did those. and it's your mistake that ruined your brother's chance to come to US; don't blame the US embassy, blame urself.
