Hello and thanks for great work.

I'm applying for 2015 DV lottery. Me and my fiance are getting married before the lottery results.
Should I apply her as spouse or should I apply as single ?

Thank you in advance.

If you haven't married your finance at the end of putting in your eDV application, your marital status has to be SINGLE! If select married when you're not married, you will be disqualified because of this at the time of the interview if you're selected.
 
Put your actual marital status at the moment you submit the application, anything else can be considered as fraud and is very likely to get you denied a visa. If they conclude that you're lying on the application, you won't simply be denied a visa for one time, they can deny you a visa forever.

We'll be married before they will review the application, so still to write single ?
Thanks

yes because if you win then when you need to send the form is a question when did you married and if you put now married then will be a lie and for this you will be disqualified

And how do you know when the applications get reviewed and potential winners are selected?

Anyway, the bottom line is you're supposed to use your exact marital marital status as at the time of the application. If you enter as single and get selected, your spouse can be added when you send back your forms back to KCC.
 
Marriage after settling.

After settling in the states unmarried and an LPR decides to get married in home country what processes must he go through to bring his wife to the states after the marriage. Thanks in advance for your insightful answers.

She needs to apply for F2A immigrant visa.

Go through the following links for instructions and the process on how to file for a spouse after becoming a LPR.

And interestingly I've learnt there is a K-3 visa which intends shortening the physical separation between an LPR and spouse whiles immigrant petition is pending.
More info from the link below

See below:

The K-3 nonimmigrant visa is for the foreign-citizen spouse of a United States (U.S.) citizen. This visa category is intended to shorten the physical separation between the foreign-citizen and U.S. citizen spouses by having the option to obtain a nonimmigrant K-3 visa overseas and enter the United States to await approval of the immigrant visa petition. K-3 visa recipients subsequently apply to adjust status to a permanent resident (LPR) with the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) upon approval of the petition. Because the spouse of a U.S. citizen applying for a nonimmigrant K-3 visa must have a immigrant visa petition filed on his or her behalf by his or her U.S. citizen spouse and pending approval, a K-3 applicant must meet some of the requirements of an immigrant visa. It should be noted that under U.S. immigration law, a foreign citizen who marries a U.S. citizen outside the U.S. must apply for the K-3 visa in the country where the marriage took place. Learn more in the Applying for a Visa section below.

Eligible children of K-3 visa applicants receive K-4 visas. Both K-3 and the K-4 visas allow their recipients to stay in the U.S. while immigrant visa petitions are pending approval by USCIS.

It is not applicable in your case. You needed to have filed the I-130 before Dec 2000 and meet certain criteria in order to apply for a V visa for your spouse.

If you are a permanent resident and you have filed Form I-130 for your spouse and/or minor children on or before December 21, 2000, your spouse and/or children may be eligible for the V visa classification if more than three years have passed since the I-130 was filed. For more information on V visas, see the “V Nonimmigrant Visas” page.
