For an employment-based residency petition, what is the priority date that must be current for me to adjust status? Is it the one for my labor certification, or is it the one for the Form I-140?
Generally, it is the priority date of the labor certification. However, some visa categories do not require the filing of a labor certification. For example, visa category Eb1 for a multi-national manager does not require the filing of a labor certification application. In this case, the priority date would be the one in which the initial visa petition was filed.
