Gurus, I would appreciate your inputs on this question.
I filed my 485 based on an EB1 OR I-140, in Aug. \'98. Since
then, my company was acquired, so in Nov. \'99 I filed and
got approved an NIW I-140. I have an RFE now and I want
to substitute the OR 140 with NIW 140. The problem is that
the PD is not current for the NIW 140. (Nov. \'99). Can I use
the PD for the OR 140 and ask for a substitution?
Any inputs are much appreciated.

EB1 PD is always current.... so Don\'t worry.
Check travel.state.gov/visa_bulletin.html for EB1 PD!!

Yes, but NIW comes under EB2. Therefore, I will be going from EB1 to
EB2 (so PD becomes an issue for me). I heard that one can use
the PD of the earlier I-140 but I am not really sure. Thanks for your
response and I hope someone else can post more.

You sure can retain the old PD.
As to how to handle the paper work, please seek legal advice.
