US Immigration from Trinidad and Tobago

Goodnight. It's been a while since I have posted. I was naturalized in 2018. I just filed the I 130 for my mother in November. We will be doing Consular processing in our home country of Trinidad. She is not ready to immigrate right now (still working, owns her home, has bank accounts etc) and we know the process is currently taking up to 2 years. My mother has had a B2 visa for many years and travels back and forth for 1-2 week periods about 1-2x a year. She would like to visit next year during the summer for a short trip with my sister and her children. If the I 130 is pending still at that time, which we imagine will be the case, can she still travel on her B2? I have read different things but what I understand is that she needs to show CBP that she does not intend to immigrate on that visit. We do not plan to adjust status while she is here as she still has many responsibilities at home which she can show proof of. Has anyone traveled with B2 with pending I 130? Anything I should be aware of?

Thanks for any insight and responses.

Hi All - its been years since I used to be active on this forum!! I've started lurking again because I just submitted my N-400 application online. Just wondering how long its been taking people from submission to approval? Thank you!

Is it possible to AOS for an Adult Married Child that has overstayed a B1/B2 visa in the US?

Raleigh, NC filer here. I didn t see a June 2021 Forum so started one! N400 will be sent off by my Immigration lawyer on 6/14. I am extremely excited. Wishing everyone a speedy and smooth naturalization process.
