Please Help: Question related to RIR

This is slightly off-topic for this I485 forum. Since, this is urgent, I am posting the question here as well. Thanks for understanding.
--------------

A friend of mine is going to apply for Labor Certification in a startup company. That company do not have the ability to file Green Card in through RIR at the moment. The Company may be eligible for RIR status 6 months from now.

My friend has only 1 more year on H1-B. If he files for LABOR certification now in the regular way (i.e. Non-RIR), can he convert the same LABOR application to RIR, once his company becomes eligible for that?

In short, Can a Labor Application that was filed in Non-RIR category be converted into RIR category?

Does any one have any experience/information regarding this issue...

Please share with us. It is a bit critical at this moment, since he has only one more year to go in H1-B.

Thanks in Advance,

Requesting the members of this forum, please comment...
if you know of anyone who has converted a non-RIR LCA to RIR-LCA, any information regarding that will be very helpful, and much appreciated.

thanks,
