What is my Priority Date on I485 ?

Hi All

I recently filed i485 for my wife on Oct 29th.

She completed her biometrics on 17thNov. On the I485 copy we received it says our PD is Dec 30th 2014 ie the date our i130 was filed with Uscis.

Now when would we be getting GC interview date? is it going to be based on the I485 filing date in oct ie 29th Oct when I filed the i485 OR will it be based on my I130 PD ie 30th Dec 2014.

My Field office is going to be Newark NJ which is processing March 2015 cases for AOS.

I am confused if we have to look at I485 processing dates as per the field office as our new PD or is it one's I130 PD that the uscis processes the GC.

Thanks

Anand

Thank You

Anand

Your PD on I-130 does not mean to your I-485.

Your I-130 PD means when PD becomes current your visa is available for you and it allows you when you can send your I-485.

I-485 PD means when USCIS received your I-485 and you have to wait in line till your interview spot is available, even if you pass your interview you won't get GC once your I-130 becomes current. Look like you just sent your I-485 in October and you have to wait for awhile to get the interview scheduled.
