: No. Even though the only issue may have been the security and background checks, the CIS cannot approve the case until the priority date is current. Back to Top Q: My adjustment application is pending and I recently got married. Can I add my spouse to the application (i.e. can my spouse file her I-485) even if my priority date is not current? A: No. In order to add a dependent to the pending application, the priority date for the principal must be current.
