简明地说下我的问题：
最初打算140PP，然后同时提交我和我LD的485
律师建议我单独CONCURRENT 140+485，觉得比140PP便宜，时间也和140PP+485差不多 （他觉得我本身条件也还
不错）。 等140批了，再提交我LD的485 （因为他还没申请OPT，怕有移民倾向。于是我
交了140+485的律师费和申请费。
我在板上看到了有人140和485同时批准，并没有第一步第二步，于是发邮件问律师。万
一我同时140+485批准了，还没来得及递LD的485怎么办。
律师没正面回答，只说我LD is good to submit 485 with me (concurrent)
有谁能回答下我的问题，LD的485是只要我485批准了，他随时都能提交申请，还是是必
须在我485批准以前提交？
我们是不太愿意两个人concurrent,因为没OPT风险实在太大了。

一般来说，140和485同时批准的可能性很小，基本上485会在140批之后一段时间批准。
我的就是50天以后。
我的建议是，先让把你和你ld的485材料全部准备好，一旦140批了立即交485，也就是
在一个星期内。

If the follow-to-join benefits can not be applied, better file both 485
together. No one can tell how soon 485 can be approved.
Another strategy, do not submit some evidences for 485 at the first place,

Should be married before 485 approval.
"A spouse or child of a permanent resident cannot receive “following-to-

另外仔细读485的instruction 2关于谁有资格递交485就写清楚了：based on Being the spouse or child at
the time principle applicant files to adjust the status OR at a time a
person is granted permanent residency in an immigrant category that allows
derivative Status for spouse or children. EB 是允许配偶和孩子做为derivative
的，也就是说只要在eb主申请人的绿卡拿到前拥有副申请人资格（结婚），就可以递交485。

"Follow" means to come later, that's for spouses who are not in US, and they can apply for consular processing, where they don't need to submit I-130 form (to try to get a visa number, similar to I-140 form), nor should they submit I-485 form. I-485 form is for people who are in US to adjust status.
But if the spouse is already here in US with the principal applicant, this spouse's visa number is already available "before" the principal's I-485 is approved, and it's always available "when" and "after" the principal's I-485 is approved, even if the "application" of the spouse's I-485 happens "after" the principal's 485 approval. It's like DHS has already allowed a visa number, which can be claimed any time. I don't think that there's an extra term for this, it's the same as the case where couples apply for I-485 together at the same time.
However, if the marriage happens later than the principal's I-485 approval, the spouse has to apply through the category of green card holder's spouse using form I-130, and it has a PD in 2009 for mainland Chinese.

I know "follow-to-join", however, it does not apply here.

It explictly says the derivatives need to submit 485 before principal's 485
is approved.
It is better to be safe than sorry.
they can apply for consular processing, where they don't need to submit I-
130 form (to try to get a visa number, similar to I-140 form), nor should
they submit I-485 form. I-485 form is for people who are in US to adjust

approved, and it's always available "when" and "after" the principal's I-
485 is approved, even if the "application" of the spouse's I-485 happens "

: "Follow" means to come later, that's for spouses who are not in US, and they can apply for consular processing, where they don't need to submit I-130 form (to try to get a visa number, similar to I-140 form), nor should they submit I-485 form. I-485 form is for people who are in US to adjust status.
: But if the spouse is already here in US with the principal applicant, this spouse's visa number is already available "before" the principal's I-485 is approved, and it's always available "when" and "after" the principal's I-485 is approved, even if the "application" of the spouse's I-485 happens "after" the principal's 485 approval. It's like DHS has already allowed a visa number, which can be claimed any time. I don't think that there's an extra term for this, it's the same as the case where couples apply for I-485 together at the same time.
: However, if the marriage happens later than the principal's I-485 approval, the spouse has to apply through the category of green card holder's spouse using form I-130, and it has a PD in 2009 for mainland Chinese.

It explictly says the derivatives need to submit 485 before principal's 485
is approved.
It is better to be safe than sorry.

From this link, it seems the derivative adjustment is doable after principal
's 485 is approved:
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_485pos.html
I think it is better that LZ seeks clarifications from the lawyer.

This link is wrong.
What we talked about is NOT follow-to-join.
This was/is the myth on this board earlier and now as well. I wasn't aware of it till that post that easttowest and that LZ cleared this case.

What do you mean that the link is wrong?
The link is NOT for follow-to-join. Paragraph 5 is for dependents who are
already in the U.S. when the principal filed 485.
However, there is confliction between what is said in this website and the
other one I listed above.

That's what I meant that it was wrong.
This case mentioned in that link was not for follow-to-join, and it was
wrong. This wrong statement was what I was told on this board earlier as
well, and many people still believe so.
It is wrong. easttowest is correct.
