You say you didn't have status when you tried the AOS route. What method did you use to enter the states? Is there any overstay you have ?

Marriage fraud is common in the US even between citizens. People marry without love to share health care benefits or housing. Being from I high fraud country I have met people that have done all sorts of fraud just to come to the US and it has gotten worse since this country is no longer in the DV lottery. Federal courts are tied up with a lot of more important cases and they will take little notice of the USC that pockets a bit of money to marry for a bit. Unless they are doing this in a repeatable pattern it would be hard to prove it wasn't just a marriage gone bad after the non US partner simply sent their money to the US through their spouse. At the state level there is little about marriage fraud on the books and it is not a crime they chase after as it is hard to prove. Are there scary sounding penalties against this , yes. Do they actually go after anyone under that statue. not often.

The requirement for both parents to agree to a minor's passport is a law that is designed to prevent a parent from getting one and leaving to a country that is resistant to shared parenting. You are actually supposed to have written permission to take a minor child that isn't travelling with both parents. Full custody will not remove the passport requirement. You can either get the father to agree or get a court order specifically dealing with the passport issue.

If the above items are true it is doubtful that the person will ever get a waiver. It would be more effective to move there. It seems to be pointing to both drug issues along with a prior overstay and some sort of assisting in illegal entry to the US . I don't think I have ever seen anyone overcome this sort of history, assuming what you posted is correct.
