Question regarding DS-260 form

[Chintis 3]

Hello everyone, the DS-260 asks if you have ever been denied a US visa in the past. My husband is currently applying and a few years back his father was the primary immigrant in a petition for a US visa and my husband was included on the petition as family immigrating with him. His father was ultimately denied because of circumstances relating to him (his father). Would this count as my husband having been denied a US visa since he was included as family? Thanks

There will be a record with his name and his A number.   Better to disclose it than not.  

 

Each time my wife applied for a visa, the first time she was denied.   Immigrant Visa for Mexico, Denied.   Then approved.  Visitor Visa for Canada denied.  Then Approved.  Visitor Visa for US, Denied.  Then spousal approved.   Denials aren't major deals in and of themselves especially when they are for immigration.

And when you answer with yes there should open up a box where you can explain the circumstances. So nothing to worry about that it would shed a bad light on him.

Did they get to the interview stage? If it was just the petition then no but if it was the visa then yes disclose it.  It wont matter anyhow.
