I need some input. I wanted to know if I am eligible to apply for a tourist visa to the US.

Here's my situation.
I was on an H1B (6 yrs + 1 yr OPT). It expired on Dec 1, 2008. In the meantime I enrolled in School and had an application under review for change of status from H1B to F1. I consequently withdrew from classes on 01/13/2009 and left the US on 01/23/2009 and now I am back in India.
I had also applied for a Canadian Permanent residency in the meantime which is currently under review.

My question - Could I apply for a US tourist visa after this? If I am called for the interview to the Canadian Consulate, it is going to be held at the Buffalo, NY location. I hope I don't have to...
