I want to apply for B1/B2 visa, but I had an i130 approved and then withdrawn in 2014

[Propofol 1]

Greetings,

 

I want to apply for USA non immigrant B1/B2 visa to attend a medical conference in October 2024 and to take a tour in Miami while on my way to Saint Kitts and Nevis. 

 

Current Nationality : Saint Kitts and Nevis in the Carribean (Citizenship by investment) since December 2023.
Age: 37 years.
Status: Married.
Occupation: Physician with MD Certificate working and living in Dubai, UAE.

 

- I had previously got a US B1/B2 visa in JAN 2013. At that time I was holding Palestinian passport (my original nationality). I was living and working in Saudi Arabia.
- I have travelled one time to the US in November 2013 for externship training in infectious diseases in Denver, Colorado. The airport immigration granted me 6 months duration of stay.
- During my stay, I have met a lady (which is a LPR) and we got married in JAN 2014 in the US.
- My ex-wife applied for me an I-130 petition for alien relative of LPR and was approved on March 2014.
- For some reasons, the marriage wasn't working out properly.
- I have left the US in March 2014 (My visa was granted until May 2014).
- On Spetember 2014, my ex-wife applied for withdrawing my I-130 as we concluded to terminate the marriage. On December 2014 my I-130 was revoked and a revocation notice was sent to my ex-wife US address which she didn't give to me.
- On Spetember 2014 a decree of Dissolution of Marriage was issued by Denver CO court.
- Ever since that time I didn't apply for a US visa.
- Currently I am married since October 2020 and we are expecting a baby soon.
- I have strong ties to my country of residence (UAE) in form of Golden visa, work, investments ,assets and my wife.

 

I have multiple questions:
1- Will the previous application and revocation of I-130 affect my application for non immigrant visa now?
2- What questions to expect during the interview about the application and how to answer them correctly?
3- What to write in the description under the question (HAS ANYONE EVER FILED AN IMMIGRANT PETITION ON YOUR BEHALF WITH THE UNITED STATS CITIZENSHIP AND IMMIGRATION SERVICES) under section (PREVIOUS US TRAVEL INFORMATION).

 

 

I really appreciate your time and effort to respond to my post and thanks for taking the time to read the post.

1. Yes, it can affect it. But it's been 9 years so it will affect your application less hopefully.

2. The reasons you want to visit the US, your current job, the I-130 petition and what happened.

3. You should answer yes, because it's truth.
