CP vs AOS

[Greenberg]

It seems there are a lot of confusions out here. I am wondering if you filed I-140 for CP and then changed to AOS (I-485), do you need to notify the NVC or consulate to get your I-140 back to the INS (then how?), or the INS can do it automatically, or as my lawyer said, just don\'t worry and do nothing and things are going to be approved just as if I had filed for AOS in my I-140?

Sincerely hope you folks could share your experiences or viewpoints.

Don\'t worry

I\'m on the same situation. You can file for AOS eventhough your I-140 was approved for CP. But I would suggest that you call NVC and notify them of your intention to adjust status here in the US. That\'s what I did and the IIO in NVC asked me to send a fax to them stating my intention to adjust status in the US.

I already received my I-485 receipts and EAD card.
