Berkeley, CA asked in Immigration Law for California

Q: I have a pending I-485 for an EB-3 (pending), but I want to file an I-485 through marriage is this an issue?

I was in the process to get my EB-3 through a company and they had filed an I-485 on my behalf, but it is taking too long and they are unresponsive. My husband is a US Citizen and we wanted to go process the I-485 and I-130a with other forms like (g-1145, i-131a, i-693, i-765, i-864). We have been waiting for a withdrawal for the previous i-485 and this has caused a lot of standstill on our end. Do I need o take care of the withdrawal for the first i-485 or can I just process another one based on our marriage?

A: File a copy of the withdrawal letter with the new application. It is not necessary to wait for USCIS to respond.
