You can't have both open borders and guaranteed income.
Maintaining open borders seems to be a higher priority for the time being amongst those who would also advocate for a guaranteed income.

Sure you can have liberalized immigration and basic income: basic income isn't means/behaviorally-tested, but it still has a target population -- which can well be citizens. If anything, a relatively liberalized immigration policy with unconditional basic income for citizens but not noncitizens minimizes the economic incentive for immigrants without their own strong support (whether from their own assets or family support) to come to the country.
