I have posted my question on avvo website. Let us see if any lawyer will answer it. I certainly do hope they are all right and I am the one who is wrong because I do hope I can file concurrently.

I also highly suggest you read this - AVVO immigration lawyers who state it's okay to file concurrently starting in August for F2a cases.

What's wrong with the answers from the AVVO immigration lawyers? Why do you have to ask them again?

These general info pages on the USCIS website is not always very clear. The actual law says:

Also, read this:

http://www.uscis.gov/ilink/docView/AFM/HTML/AFM/0-0-0-1/0-0-0-3481/0-0-0-4484.htm

And then it goes list examples when someone would not be able to file concurrently. One of which is:

But according to your view, if the petitioner is an LPR (and thus it's in a family preference category), then they can never file concurrently. Then why does it matter whether the "second preference visa numbers are not current"? Why not just say "If the petitioner is an LPR, they cannot apply..."?

Newacct thanks for these links. I think we are going to file concurrently. Like I said in my first post generic info on the webpage is contradictory. But those additional links which all you gave seems that concurrent filling is permitted.
