I just got my passport back with a newly printed K1 visa (yay!). My existing B1/B2 visa (in the same passport) appears to be unmolested.



There are a bunch of things I need to sort out in my home country (ETA 2-3 months) before I make the move to the US, but I'd still like to visit my fiancee in the meantime for our anniversary next month. Can I travel in and out of the US on my B1/B2 visa without "activating" the 90 day clock on my k1 visa? Anyone on here have any experience with this?



For what it's worth, I haven't had any trouble entering the US on my B1/B2 visa while waiting for the K1 visa (visited something like 7 times since we first initiated the k1 process)



Thanks!

Disclaimer Your mileage may vary

It is up to you to decide if you want to take the risk or not at the POE.
