Hi,
My employer will be filing my I-485 based on Employment based shortly, and I just found out that I have been selected for the 2017 DV Green card through Uganda birth.
My question is what will be the quickest way to obtain the green card? Both require a I-485 filing and currently where my employer will send the I-485 is Texas Service Center which is currently looking at 2 August 2015 filed petitions. For DV my priority reference number is 24xxx, and I expect that to become current in April 2017 (as per previous years statastics), after which I can file the I-485 for DV. Where would I send the DV I-485 and how long does it take to get approval?
As I am UK citizen I am able to do consular processing, but will this make getting the DV green card any quicker?
Will it cause any issue if I apply for DV green card i.e. file I-485, even after employer has filed I-485 and it is in Pending status?
Thanks,
H
