Re: AOS In US
How long were you married before?
What was the actual grounds for which you were turned down before?
Why exactly did your wife refuse to go to the interview?
Did the immigration service ask you to leave after they turned you down?
Yes, this is not a simple case.

Re: AOS In US
It may have an effect on your current application depending on what happened to the application filed on your behalf in 2002. Did you ever receive a decision on that application? Do you have any documents relating to that application. Prior to filing anything with USCIS, you should seek the assistance of an attorney who can advise you regarding the risks/benefits of filing the application with your current spouse, as well as what you will need to do to obtain any information regarding the previous application.
Re: AOS In US
It really depends on what exactly happened in 2004, for example, whether it was just denied, whether you were ordered deported, etc. you should seek help of professional attorney to carefully review this matter and to assess all the risks and to advise on a best course of action for you to obtain a green card.
