My wife is applying for EB1 from O1 visa.
I have been out of status for years. In 2005 i have received a NTA with date to be set (which was never set). In February of this year I applied for DACA, as I meet the criteria, got the biometrics done but the EAD hasn't yet arrived.
• My wife will fill out the i-140 and i-485 concurrently.
• Do we fill out two separate i-485? Are the two cases reviewed separately?
• Would approved i-140 grant us both EADs?
• Would I be considered in status while we are waiting for AOS approval?
• Does the fact that I am waiting for DACA approval function as a waiver for the lack of status?
• Could my inclusion delay her approval?
• Are my odds of adjusting my status higher at this step of the process rather than trying AOS later when she has her permanent residency?
Thank you!
