Hi, I am new to the VISA issues. Here is our situation:

1. she obtained the B2 visa in August. she has never entered the U.S.

2. I (an LPR) went back to China few couple of weeks ago and we got married.

3. I returned to the U.S. a few days ago and sent the I-130 petition to the Chicago Lockbox (by USPS express mail). we indicated consular processing in the I-130 form.

4. She plan to visit the U.S. (visit me and also sight-seeing) in October or November. At that time, the I-130 will be pending.

My question is: Will she be denied of entry at the Port of Entry since her visa is B2 but she also has an I-130 pending? What are the risks?

what should I do?

In case she is denied entry at Port of Entry, will that pose any negative consequences of her I-130 petition and the following consular processing?

Thank you.
