Hello,

My sister who is a US citizen is sponsoring green card for immediate family (parents and siblings). The family lives in Canada and are Canadian citizens. We do visit USA a few times during the year. My question is that while the I-130 is in process can we still travel to the US? Considering that the wait time for siblings is quite long would we not be able to travel to US till the green card is granted?

Please advise.

Thanks.
 
It depends. I-130 shows immigrant intent. If the question comes up, they may turn her down at the border. But it's worth trying.
 
It's more of a problem for the parents, who can immediately file for AOS if they are admitted to the US, than for the siblings who would damage their chances of obtaining a green card if they overstay.
