B1/B2 visa after immigrant visa case was closed?
Hi everyone,
I have a question about applying for a U.S. B1/B2 tourist visa.
I was married to a U.S. citizen, and we applied for a CR-1/IR-1 spousal immigrant visa in 2024. Unfortunately, our case was terminated because we couldn’t provide some of the required documents. My case never reached the interview stage at the U.S. Embassy.
If I apply for a tourist visa now, will the U.S. Embassy still have my previous spousal visa application in their records?
Also, do I realistically have any chance of getting a tourist visa to visit my husband in the U.S., or is it likely to be denied because of my previous immigrant visa application?
Has anyone been in a similar situation? I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience.
