What US visa options are there for the spouse of a US citizen?

Long story short. My wife is a US citizen, I'm a UK citizen and we are settled in the UK. Before my wife and I were married (we were just dating at the time) I was refused entry to the US to visit her. After that, when we were engaged and she was going to be moving here, I applied for a B visa via the US embassy to help her move and they refused the application, saying 'I could not prove ties to the UK' despite the fact my family are here, my fiancee had a visa to live in the UK and we had a wedding booked in the UK! We are now married and want to be able to visit my in-laws. We need to be able to do this at short notice because they are not in good health etc. Has anyone else been in this situation or does anyone know what visa options there are for it? It seems that unless we want to settle in the US, we have to apply every time and go through the interview process etc. They refused it without reason last time and we have no idea what to do.What US visa options are there for the spouse of a US citizen?
You need to see a seasoned immigration attorney. Don't look for an answer here because your situation is complex.What US visa options are there for the spouse of a US citizen?
You could try getting divorced and marrying citizens of your own respective countries - neatly eliminating the problem.
There are many spouses of US citizens who visit the US only as tourists, and get tourist visas without trouble. I can only suggest that you reapply with proof of your and your wife's employment in the UK, your lease, her residency permit.





You aren't supposed to be able to travel on the visa waiver once you've been refused a visa, but I understand that many do so successfully.
Qualifying for a Visa


Applicants for visitor visas must show that they qualify under provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act. The presumption in the law is that every visitor visa applicant is an intending immigrant. Therefore, applicants for visitor visas must overcome this presumption by demonstrating that:





The purpose of their trip is to enter the U.S. for business, pleasure, or medical treatment;


They plan to remain for a specific, limited period; and


They have a residence outside the U.S. as well as other binding ties which will insure their return abroad at the end of the visit.


your wife being a US citizen should not have to ask to come to the US ......


did the US immigration not give you a reason for refusing you entry ?


if you have a recent passport demanded by the US , you should not need a visa .unless you wanted to stay longer than the 90 days allowed to all the schengen countries ..........


why would the US said that you cannot prove UK ties ? do you have citizenship of the UK ? is there a problem proving your citizenship ?


if you have more infos to be given ? please do so .....i will look .......
