Guys,
I am currently on H-1b, my wife is a USC and we are applying for both I-130 and I-485 together in the same packet.
In Part 2 of form 485 "I am applying for an adjustment to permanent resident status because:" i have checked "a" - "an immigration petition giving me immediate available immigrant visa number that has been approved" ( i am guessing this is not correct, since i am assuming that the petition has been approved even before sending the packet).

Is this the right option to check, or should i check "h" (other basis of eligibility), and state that a form I-130 has been applied concurrently ?
Please advise.

thanks.
 
i am checking "h" (other basis of eligibility), and state "The immigration visa is immediately available for me as the direct relative of an US citizen "
 
not 'A" because you don't have an approved I130. You should check "other" I don't remember but I guess it's option "H".
 
Thanks for all the replies.

I have selected option a.
I guess the wording can get a little confusing on these forms - here is how i interpreted option "a" and it seems to make sense to me :)

An immigration petition giving me an immediately available immigrant visa number that has been approved.(Attach a copy of the approval notice, or a relative,special immigrant juvenile,or special immigrant military visa petition filed with this application that will give you an immediately available visa number,if approved.)

I hope this is the right option, and this makes it a little clear for others with the same confusion.
 
I put other and then that I was filing my forms concurrently..... I wasn't convinced it was right but it must have been fine because my green card was ordered a few days ago!
