Yes, you can visit as usual, but only US citizens are guaranteed entry.. Just be prepared to present evidence that you will return to your country IF ASKED........Many, many people have visited the US during the process with no problems at all.

"The US immigration process requires a great deal of knowledge, planning, time, patience, and a significant amount of money.  It is quite a journey!"

my fiance is currrently here visiting - while here she has scheduled her medical and hopefully soon her interview. 

 

as missileman said - you do need to be prepared to be turned away, but my fiance has visited multiple times now while the application was in progress (i think 3 times) and had no issues at all, not even a question. 

 

i think the only other consideration is where the person is flying to - i read on another thread (cant remember where) that someone was turned down at a smaller airport because the agents weren't used to this case.
