transfer spouse's approved 140 to my pending 485

[qqy]

I got a question about concurrent filling. could anyone share your experience one concurrent filling?

If I file 140 and 485 concurrently, my spouse only file 140. If my spouse's 140 get approved first, can I transfer spouse's approved 140 to my pending 485?

Thanks a lot

No, but your spouse can file for 485 as primary and you can file (interfile/ join) your 485 as derivative.

Hi EricS,

Thanks a lot for the answer. But I do not quite understand how this procedure would be performed.

I am not sure if my understanding is correct? Because my spouse and I now belong to different service centers, So

Per your suggestion,

I will file my 140 and 485 concurrently to CSC. At the same time, my spouse only file 140 to VSC.

If my spouse's 140 get approved first, then my spouse can file 485 as primary and I can transfer my pending 485 to VSC and join as the derivative.

Thanks
