Like Susie already answered the legal document alone will not be enough considering you guys got married after your boyfriend got selected. Apart from the engagement photos, do you have photos of the actual wedding itself showing friends and family members in attendance? Do you have photos of when you guys were dating? Copies of receipts for expenses incurred for the marriage? Wedding invitation card?

There's no limit to what they might ask for. The onus is on you both to prove your marriage is genuine by gathering as much evidence as you can gather ahead of time.

Yes, they will definitely be suspicious that this is a green card marriage. You will need to take lots of evidence to show that it is a genuine relationship. Things like phone and email logs, engagement party photos if you had one (I know not everyone does), wedding photos showing lots of family members, you and he on vacation together, you and he with each other's family - that sort of thing. If all you have is a legal marriage document and no real evidence that you two have a proper life and romantic relationship, then chances of denial are probably quite high.

In addition to what Susie said, describing him as your boyfriend is pretty much a slam dunk.

If your wife is the main selectee, most of the questions may be directed at her. If the CO wants you to answer any particular question, the question will be directed at you.

What exactly is it you are worried about that she will be not good at answering? If it's language, she will be able to answer in the local language. Apart from that, if there are any questions asked, it will be ones that are pretty simple and she just needs to tell the truth. There are no "trick" questions and nothing to worry about.

Please. Post once and wait.

The lottery draw is random. No criteria are used to pick the winners. So a married person has exactly the same chance as a single person in the same region (and sometimes same region/country). A married couple have an advantage of course if both enter and are qualified since when one of them wins - both will get processed.

As for the percentage question - it's pointless to answer that because of what I just explained.
 
I'm not even sure why he's asking these back to back questions regarding % since his wife has already 'won the dvlottery 2017'
