...applied for family-based visa, i.e. I am an American citizen. We are eligible for waiver of visa denial by the Attorney General. Has anybody been in situation like this? Can the Attorney General overturn the Consul`s denial? What options do we have to get reunited? How can they keep families apart?

Do you mean that an I-601 was denied? If so, that is done by USCIS, not by consular officers. While you might be eligible to request a waiver, the standards under which these are issued are extremely stringent, and very few are actually approved.
The US government has no interest in keeping families apart. It does, however, have an interest in upholding the immigration law as passed by Congress. If someone has violated that law, then certain other provisions apply, such as visa ineligibility, or inadmissibility, whether or not the violator has a US citizen spouse.
See the Immigration and Nationality Act

How hard is this? (I) who is not in possession of a valid unexpired immigrant visa, reentry permit, border crossing identification card, or other valid entry document required by this Act, and a valid unexpired passport, or other suitable travel document, or document of identity and nationality if such document is required under the regulations issued by the Attorney General under section 211(a) , or So you tried to enter without a visa? Dumb. So file the I-130, and get the permission and the visa that you need. This isn't rocket science.

If she was denied a visa to the USA, well there is a logic reason for that. If you want to be reunited with her all you have to do is go back,, no body is holding you in the USA.. So don't say that our government is trying to keep families apart. You play by our rules or you will go back to your country. If I go to your country we had to play by your rules,,, why is it then that you people come to our country and you all want things your way or we are racist or trying to keep families apart?? If you come to the USA you follow our rules and laws, period.Good luck!!

You need to look in the phone book for what is called a Immigration layer. A Friend of my wife was turned down at first but after working with a immigration layer she got her Visa. Here is a site for one but you can find hundreds if you do a search, http://www.myimmigrationlawyer.net/?OVRAW=immigration%20lawyer&OVKEY=immigration%20lawyer&OVMTC=standard

The gov't doesn't care if they keep families apart its all about money and control, and everyone else will support the gov't and these crooked policies because it doesn't effect them. The gov't probably prefers americans not marry outside their nationality anyway..

19 hours ago you asked...."Why does my boyfriend keep saying he would never get married?"
Did you get married since then?

Could it be that you are not married?
