2015Filer got approved,what are next steps HELP

[James777 0]

Hello friends,

I am working a startup company in US through using F1 OPT. My wife is green card holder.My PD is 10-08-2015

I just got approved by I-130 last week.I have some questions for next steps.I really appreciate it if you could give me any advice.More detail is better.

What will we do next steps? What documents do I need to file? I want to be ready before my PD become current.

How could I do adjust of status by Visa bulletin chart B when my PD is earlier than the cut off date？

Could I get a new EAD card when adjust of status? I hope I still can work before my opt expire of this October.

Thanks a lot

if you want to stay in the USA during all of this,

then

you have to maintain your legal presence status on your F-1, until the I-485 can be filed. (Well, that's for a USCitizen Petitioner, unsure about LPR rules - I remember reading you must maintain legal presence until interview day if'n spouse is a LPR - so check it out in further research)

as to EAD, no, usually the EAD on OPT is not renewable. You can apply for a new EAD with a new basis when sending in the I-485.
