[QUOTE=rogercute2002;4434017]I read a lot about this forum that you
cannot apply for I-485 until
they get current.
What does that mean? I thought you can apply I-140 and I-485 at the
same time?

Did something change over the last 2 years?


--------------------
current means PD Or priority date and PD is the date when LC was filed
by employer with DOL. One can file I-485 only if the PD is current. For
PD you need to check Visa bulletin. employer can file I-140 if PD is not
current if PD is current then I-140 can be filed with I-485.
