    If your PD is current and you are already in the US, you can file I485 concurrently with your I130. You need not wait for the decision on that petition.
    Just an opinion; Not legal advice.

      I-485 can be filed when you are in the states already.
      And once I-485 is received, you cannot leave the states until you get advance parole (I-131).

        I can confirm above. You can file I-485 with the receipt number of your I-130 if your priority date is current for your category.
