Hi there,
I have a B1/B2 [ visitor] visa. I am getting married to green card holder in next few months.I am going to enter in USA on my b1/b2 visa and then
we are planing to register our marriage in US so that we can apply for my I-130. I dont want to do anything illegal so I m planning to come back before
my I-94[ permission upto 6 months to stay in USA] expires.
My question is till my I-130 gets approved can I keep going to USA and coming back to India on my b1/b2? [visitor visa]??
how much time it will take to get my I-130??
Is there any better way to stay with my husband till I get my I-130?

Congratulations on your marriage. Would an American site, or an Indian one, be more useful to you?

In principle yes you can enter and reenter the US using your B2 visa

However , I would point out that there is a real danger that at some stage they will decide that you are using your visa to live in the US, rather than visit, and refuse you entry. So I doubt if you can reenter frequently or for long periods. Even the first visit can be dodgy if you arouse suspicion.

Proceed warily.
