My lawyer told me today that concurrent filling of I-140 and I-485 is not possible anymore, because they ran out of Visa numbers.
The highly "complicated" formula doesn't allow him to take even a guess when I can file the I-485. Of course, I can file the I-140, but for the EAD I have to have a filing receipt of the I-485.
Can anyone verfy this? And where can I track the availability on the Visa numbers?
Thanks Guys

http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_2539.html
As of now, EB2 is current, but there are rumors that EB2 will retrogress as well. New availability of EB3 visas (if any) will be published in October.
You can always get all your I-485 paperwork ready so you can apply for Adjustment of Status (AOS) whether your I-140 is approved or not. If your I-140 is not approved by then, your lawyer will use I-140 receipt notice to be able to apply I-485 application.
Good luck with your GC application!

I just received an email about my I140 approval. My case is a labor substitution case (EB3, PD Nov 03). Received RFE on May 5, and replied on June 3rd week, USCIS received on July 7th and approved on 12th.
Hope all 140 RFE replys will be approved soon.
