Hi all hope you can help me.

Since my last post I withdrew my AOS application weeks from my green card interview after my marriage went sour. So I withdrew and left the country. I was originally on a B2 visa so I could travel for 6 months at a time. I left the US within 6 months of being in AOS. I was advised by an immigration lawyer to try and not return for at least a year. I want to visit the US this May that will be 1 year and 2 month being out of the country. Now I would like to go to the US Embassy here in London, UK to see if everything would be ok, however they only seem to do visits for visa applications. I will try there help desk number on monday but I was wondering if anyone had any idea if there would be any problems flying over. That is of course if I will be able to on a ESTA.

Many thanks

The fact you tried to adjust status on a tourist visa (even unfinished) is not ideal for non-immigrant visas anymore.

Why did you have a B2?

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Try and apply for ESTA and see if you're approved. If you are you'll need to apply for a tourist visa as you did before. The same restrictions and conditions apply. If you haven't overstayed in the past there shouldn't be a problem, provided you meet all the necessary criteria.

I had a B2 Visa so I could travel the country for more than 3 months at a time. I havent yet tried for a ESTA yet. my last one expired a few years ago. If its approved why would I need a visa? when I have the visa waiver program .

I meant to say 'If you're NOT approved...' sorry!

Thanks for that S_R . I was going to wait and speak to the embassy helpline to see what they have to say on the matter. Mind you ESTA will only cost me around £20. so not much loss if its a no.
