    is USCIS case status system down?

    Looks like no one gives a damn about that website being down. It is not for US citizens anyway. The way they reply in letters, 90 days, 180 days, 365 days .......I dont think they care and nobody bothered to make the system right as it is for aliens. Let them suffer. who cares. :(

    LUD on EAD with no message change?

    It normally says that it is due to internal processing on your file. God only knows what that means. But it does happen manytimes that the date changes but no real change in status. i.e. approved or denied or rfe etc.

    I140 filed/pending, Can I file 485 ?

    You must have filed I 140 through a lawyer so it is best to ask the lawyer for further course of action even though I 485 is mostly biographic information and nothing to do with qualifications etc. The company lawyer should give that advise free of cost.
