Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

Hi. I lost my job in 2009 and I moved back to my home country since my H1B visa was revoked. I had some outstanding balance on my credit card when I left (may 2000$ max). Now I am planning to return back to USA. Will this cause any issue for my Visa or at the time of entering USA. I am planning to pay every thing off once I am there. Need advice. Thanks

The statute of limitation in most States is four years for breach of contract issues. So, the statute of limitation on your debt has long expired.
