I am not sure this is a right place to post.

I will be going to US soon to reunite with my wife on CR-1. Once I become a PR, will my parents have any problems with being admitted to US for a visit? (They have maintained a clean record ever since they received B1/B2 15 years ago or so) I am asking because it seems that having a relative as a PR or USC raises a flag or whatnot. If anyone has experiences with this, please share.

Thanks.

If they have a valid B2 already, they won't have any problems. The problems related to this usually arise when parents of LPRs apply for a B2 in their home country.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

I thought Koreans could use the VWP?

yeah once their b2 is expired, they will just have to travel on the VWP. Thanks!
