Hello!

So if my dad has a B1/tourist visa (and has had it for years, and has visited the US a million times), can he fly with me to the US when I get my K1 to help me move? He wouldn't be staying, obviously, just coming with me to help us out with the transition for a couple of weeks. Do any of you guys know if there would be any problem with that?

Assuming you mean B2, B1 is for business.

Why should there be any problems? Everyone travels on his/her own merit and/or paper.The fact that he's your Dad doesn't make any difference as long as he's legally allowed to visit the US independently. Good Luck with your moving. :)
