Traveling to the US during the NVC Process

[Tohoku 6]

Greetings all,

Can anyone give me an information wether it is OK to travel to the US during the NVC process? I have a valid B1/B2 visa which still have 3 more years before it expires. I have every intention of going back to my country of residence. And I think I will back long before the I94 expiration date or the interview date for that matter. It is going to be a 10 days only trip anyways.

I called the NVC and they said they were not authorized to answer this. I think legally I still can do this, but still, I want to re-check before I say OK to this trip.

Any information and/or experience about this will be greatly appreciated.

Its very much upto the IO at the time whether you are admitted or not, just take as much proof of ties to your own country, but it is still ok to travel.

I travelled just after our I-130 was approved and took a copy of the NOA and interview date at the embassy, was never asked questions about the application, just how long I was going for, why, and where I was staying, each case is different

I have travelled three times since my NOA2 (twice since case completed at NVC no issues whatsoever, I didn't bring any of that stuff so go for it!

Thank you Kenzie and Usbound!

I I will go ahead and say yes about the trip then, and thanks for the tips Usbound, I will prepare proof of ties just in case.

Thanks again!
