B2 as mentioned above.  Although you may have a bit more difficult time getting approved due to prior immigration intent, a (still legal) USC wife in the picture and now a USC-born child.

 

You will need strong evidence of compelling reasons to return to Morocco to overcome the strong ties to the US.

What is your status in Puerto Rico.

I would assume OP doesn't have any status if he abandoned the AOS by leaving the country.

OP's use of past/present tense is confusing.. if he is still in puerto rico, or lived there in the past and has exited the US?

English clearly second language, I’ve known people using similar terminology- “I’ve lived” to mean “I lived” (past tense). I’m pretty sure he’s left already.

 

(i think English grammar is one of the circles of hell to anyone learning the language...)

OP abandoned the AOS process before it was completed, so he doesn't have a valid green card or advanced parole. So he will need to apply for a B2 visa in Morocco (or wherever he is currently living) in order to visit a US territory. 

If you are going through the visa process and will be interviewing in Casablanca, Morocco, join us over at the

US-Morocco Visa Discussion Facebook Group! :)
