If your wife is working and making more than the stipulated minimum per household I dont' think it is neessary .Just to make sure it is better to take I864A because Support and Income are really important .

Hi,
I don't think you can file I-485 without the priority date becoming current . You could get everything ready , get a Medical Exam Appointment and keep postponing it until the priority date is current (just to make sure it doesn't expire) .
In the interview I wasn't asked to show too much...

Lexmark,
No , She did not get any response from the INS . I think any response we get from now on has to come from the local office . She took an infopass appointment yesterday and enquired about how long the case would take .
The reponse she got was "A WHILE" .
I am not sure what to do now...
