Sorry bro..I hope this revelation won't cause any resentment towards your,..wife, I suppose? Naturally, one would want to approach the "spouse" with queries and that could degenerate into something untoward. Be the man that you are, handle it maturely and all the best..
 
IF IM SELECTED AND WAITING TO GET MY 2NL, IS THERE A POSSIBILITY OF BEING SELECTED AGAIN FOR THE 2016 DV THAT HAVE BEING RELEASED ANAAAA
 
two U. S citizens killed in the Eastern Region of Ghana, the embassy in accra posted on its facebook page. I hope it doesn't hav effect on dv applicants, lol
 
My fiancé wasn't part of my dv process because we were not married when I applied and now we are preparing for our wedding which comes on in June and I would leave 2weeks after the marriage but my intension of making sure my wife joins me as quickly as possible is my worry. Please our moderators, I need your candid advice as to what I should do or the procedures available I can chance on.
Thanks

The quickest way for your spouse to get their GC would have been for you guys to get married prior to your interview and attend the interview together. The only alternative available to you now is to sponsor your wife, there's nothing easy or quick about the process. It may take anywhere between 1-2 years before she can join you in the U.S., and you of course will need to be earning the required income (or have someone willing to co-sponsor her) before your sponsorship petition will be approved.

The first step would be for you to file form I-130. Go through the following links for guidance on how to sponsor a family member:

You should post subsequent questions regarding this issue in the following forum, since it's now a case beyond the DV process which is what this particular forum is for:

Good luck!

Hello Mr @Britsimon, recently I have been called up for a Job I applied for some months back. Considering my case no of AF57XXX. How would taking this job offer, impact my case?

Are you asking if you ought to take the job?
If I were you, I would critically evaluate my chances of getting the visa- meaning look at how good my documents are and how accurate my edv entry and D's 260 were and compete them to experiences here.
If I find that my chances are very good, I would be honest with the employer that I might not be available for long, but take the job anyway. If I did not need it badly and I plan on moving as soon as I get the visa- Aug/Step., I would let someone else who needed it more then me take it.

It won't impact the case at all. Take the job, get the visa, then quit the job and move to the USA.

Two potential losers here:
The OP' reputation with employer
The employer- recruitment expenses and lost productivity when you quit and they have to rehire.
Take it only if you need it badly but if you do not and your visa chances look real good, your reputation , strength of character , your potential employer and the next job beneficiary will be the winners here a win win situation for all.

There is always the need to manage risk since there is nothing like 100% chance. There have been others who are on AP and still waiting to be cleared although their edv and DS 260 had no error. Note that, there are many reasons which will lead an applicant to be on AP although their documents look good such as name matches that of someone on the FBI's list.
He can take up the job since He will not have to leave to USA as soon as the visa becomes available. Also taking up the job will atleast provide him with some cash which is a needed factor.
It is important to note that, any employer can terminate contract offered although a cost have been incurred in hiring. My question to you is, what happens when you get a good paying job compared to your current job, will you stay in that job because there was a cost to your employer for hiring you?
