I want to know has anyone traveled on a B1/b2 visa after they have filed for the cr-1.

I have a 10 year b1/ b2 and I would like to know if I can visit my husband while I wait for the process to finish

You can, many do.

It depends on where in the pipeline your case is. If it at NVC, then be prepared for the extra glare at the PoE if you decide to travel. I had traveled on my B1/B2 to visit my husband, but we had not yet petitioned. Maybe someone else who have had that experience can shed more light on your issue.

I did visit my husband last April and our papers was already at NVC. I was able to travel without any problems.

I've been traveling in and out of the US for my business trips with B1 visa while I'm waiting for my CR-1.
Never got any issues from them at the immigration. (I'd say I went in and out over 6-7times)
JUST came back from Cayman islands via Miami. Again, no issues. Hope everything goes smooth :)
