Dear friends,
I can file I-485 now based on my LC priority date. However my I-140 is still pending with a receipt date in August, 2006. It has been out of the processing time for 3 weeks. My attorney said it would delay the process of the I-485 if filed it without the approval notice of I-140. So he suggested me to wait for 2 weeks to file I-485 and hope the I-140 can be processed during that time.
My question is: How much difference to file the I-485 with the receipt notice instead of approval notice of I-140? Did anyone have this kind of experience?
Thanks a lot.
