Q My Visa B1/B2 was canceled at the port of entry in Chicago in 2015. Can I apply for another Visa?
You can always apply for another visa. Be ready to explain your visa cancellation to the Consular Officer.
Q My ex-wife petitioned for me in Senegal in 2013, and I went for the interview at the Embassy, they told me they would call me. I was later called to pick up my passport with no visa. Now, I want to visit a friend, would there be any problem with my B1/B2 application?
Without knowing the details of your case, it is difficult to say. The important thing is to always tell the truth and not hide any details of your previous application.

- I was denied a DV visa in Monrovia in 2009 with my Liberia Passport by then I was staying with my Mum, and when she died I came to Sierra Leone to my father who later got me a Sierra Leonean passport because he is a Sierra Leonean. Would that affect my application for a Tourist Visa?
You just need to be able to credibly explain how and why you have two passports. Please make sure that your dates of birth and name match. If they do not, you need to explain why.

We aren’t able to predict until you’re able to come for your interview.
