The B1 would only get you 180 days max; and eventually, someone might be asking why so many trips of long stay; thus I'd say it depends on what your long term plans are to choose an arrangement that would be the least of a hassle -given that it seems you are planning many stays-

I'd say that a B1 would not be too difficult, I know several people who for one reason or another came to the US for longer periods to what ended up being years. I myself was in that category mit en svensk kvinna, who was the one staying long periods and she was eventually asked. She was traveling with me (this is a prior relationship I had several years ago) and then once I explained that we were going back and forth, were together in sambo and I was the USC, things went easier) But also this was pre-9/11 and I think things might have tighten now.

Lycka till!

Yes since I've been there for long trips already I know they ask a lot, got called into second questioning last time I was there on VWP (for 90 days). But I have nothing to hide and didn't overstay. Of course I want to keep going there for long vactions :) that's why this visa seems so attractive to me..

Thanks for all the good luck wishes :)

Has anyone been denied the B1 and then went back and if so how?

Not many on this site apply for a B1.
