Yes, it is possible that you will not be permitted to reenter so soon after a prior visit to the US. You have to prove that you are only visiting the US and not living here. For that you need to provide evidence of your actual home and ties to the home country.

It is your intention at the time of entry which really will determine entry. Thus, the more often you enter, the less likely they will believe that you will just be entering to visit.
*B2 Visitor Visa Application*
A Visitor Visa will have to be obtained. My firm prepares the application and then sends it directly to the applicant who will then take it to the U.S. Consulate or Embassy for a decision. If done correctly, the issuance of this visa could take less than one month after it is completed.

As long as your multiple-entry B-2 visa remains valid in addition to the current validity of your passport, you should not encounter any significant problem about re-using it for a requested entry to the US two months after your previous departure (assuming you are returning for the recreational purposes stipulated in the B-2 "tourist for pleasure" classification).

If you have a multiple-entry, unexpired B2 visa, do not overstay your admission (usually, Immigration gives B2 visitors 6 months to stay in the U.S.), and do not work in the U.S., you should be able to come back after 2 months. The Immigration is likely to deny you entry and cancel your visa either if you violate your status during your first stay (by working, overstaying, or getting convicted of a crime), or if you give the USCIS reason to think that you have an intent to remain in the U.S. (which is what happens when one gets married or makes other steps leading to becoming an immigrant in the U.S.).

You will need to be prepared to show non-immigrant intent. If you can show both a reason to return to your home country and sufficient funds to support your stay your return may be accepted.

Your readmission after being in the United States for 45 days and then exiting, coming back within two month may incur the suspicious of Immigration. You will have to provide details of why you are returning so soon.

It depends on whether or not you were working in the US. If you came as a visitor, left within the time period permitted on your I-94 card and want to return as a visitor, be prepared to explain how you can live without working.

It really depends for how long your vistor visa was valid until. Generally, the scenario you asked about below will not trigger any legal impediments.

There's always a possibility, but people enter and exit all the time. You just need to have a legitimate reason for coming to visit.

Most visitor visas (B1/B2) expressly are for multiple entries, and with that, a 45-day entry followed two months later with another entry should pose no problem.
