I had a quick question- I plan to file I-130 for my brother (married with a kid). They all have tourist visas for past 5+ years, and visit me for a month or so every couple of years for vacation. Current 1-130 processing timeline is 6-8 years for siblings, and he doesn't wish to move here for the next 5-7 years, but in the meantime, he'd still like to have an option to visit me for a family vacation or such on his tourist visa. I was wondering if filing the I-130 would cancel out his tourist visa? Can anyone please share if anyone's sibling got their visa cancelled because of the I-130?
Is there any written verbiage/laws anywhere on the USCIS website that can confirm that his visa will remain intact. Thanks for your help.
