EB3 based vs I-130?

[yanje03]

Hi I am new to i-130 and try to get some advice here. I am green card holder and my wife was trying to get her green card by employer based. We have got married over 2 years but I got my green card before we got marriage. She has filed I-480 over half year and under AOS status. Since she was filed by EB3, the priority day moves very slow and she prob won't get her green card by next 3 years with current speed. I just saw i-130 priority day is Jan 2010 now(i still can't believe why it is so fast now). i have couple question here.

1. is it worthy to apply i-130 for her
2. Does i-130 affect her employer based application (any side effect?)


Thanks for any advice.
