Using capitals is like shouting. Avoid that.:)
It does not matter whether you are in H1 or in L1. GC is independent of these 2 visas. GC is for a future position that can become available in your company.
For GC based on employment , the position is more important than your qualifications. Regular LC can take upto 2 years. adjustment in texas takes more than 2 years.
If you qualify for EB1 category then the processing might be faster. Otherwise you might be a EB2 or a EB3 category...

i know investing is like shouting but no choice but my only concern is getting green card so i have no proper knowledge about this h1 process as i am very keen to file LC and then GC as i spoke to my lawyer she says LC takes around 1 yr under fast process and then if u approve for that then i-140 and GC together can be done so we are looking at good 2.5 yr process.well i am also looking forward to go to india and she says its not safe to go as i would have to face bombay consulate for stamping.:confused: further based on ur above question my wife as h1 on accountant position and she always can get upgraded to senior accountant level 2 just for making h-1 process to be more stronger as my sponsoring company is strong as they have 32 employees and 4 pharmacy but it is not a chain it is being owned by indian.

so considering that in mind .

pls reply
 
What is your concern? Is your question which is faster you (on L1) pursueing GC or if your wife pursueing GC? Nobody can tell. As I said the GC is dependent on the employment categories. Each stage has its own idiosyncrasies. Go to the LC forum to find the actual processing time and specific examples.

My suggestion: Both initiate GC and pursue it.
