Re: Illegal Res married to citizen went to Mex to complete visa I-130
Since the visa was likely denied based on a ground of inadmissibility, he would need to assess whether he has any waiver options. However, without knowing what the official basis for denial was, which he should have received, it is difficult to say what options are available.
Generally, when a consular post denies an immigrant visa, the officer provides written notice of the basis for the denial along with potential waiver options.
