I have not filed my I-130 yet. I live in China but my husband is from Africa and is living and working there. I will move home this summer and I plan to file the I-130 soon. Meanwhile, my husband will come to the US on a tourist visa. We are hoping he can stay for 6 months as allowed on his I-94. We may even apply for an extension of this.

I would like to file as soon as possible, but if this will affect my husband's tourist visa, I will wait until after he arrives. We don't plan to do anything that will jeopardize his immigration, but since he has been granted a visa, I would like to use it so that we can be together, at least part of the time, while we wait for his immigration to be approved.

My question is, then, even with a valid tourist visa, will my husband be denied entry at passport control because I have a case pending in his name?
