Hello Everyone,
Next week I am filing my I-485 under EB-4 category from California center. I am single now. My question is if I get married before my I-485 approval, so can I also my wife to the file and will she get the greencard along with me ?

Any help or info on my situation will be helpful.

Thanks,
Manu.

yes, she can file while you are pending or even six months after your approval.
 
Actually I want her to get greencard without a long wait... so I should attach her file along with me or I should for my approval and then apply for her ?

Thanks for help,
Manu

Highly advisable to get a marriage certificate before your 485 approval and file her 485.
You can't file your spouse's 485 after your 485 approval, it is much longer process then.
 
I'm not sure where this "six months after approval" comes from.

"If the spouse or child is in the United States, theindividual derivatives may file their Form I-485adjustment of status applications concurrently with theForm I-485 for the principal applicant, or file the FormI-485 at anytime after the principal is approved, if a visanumber is available".

Form I-485 instructions page 2
The six months "from a lawyer" he may be wrong. Every one should check by himself and post for others please.
