What are the risks of concurrent filing of I-140 and I-485?
The first risk is monetary. You will not be able to get a refund for the I-485 filing fees from the USCIS if your I-140 is ultimately denied. Secondly, you may become out of status if your I-140 application is denied and you are in adjustment pending status. However, you can alleviate this risk by choosing a reputable law firm experienced in filing I-140 petitions. Our firm has filed well over eight hundred I-140 petitions in EB-1 and EB-2 NIW, with an approval rate for NIW petitions at 93%+ and for EB-1A&B petitions at 98%+.
