Question on priority date for EB-1
Hi,
I have a question on the green card priority date.
I applied for my labor of EB-2 green card with my employer in 2013 and my I-140 with EB-2 was approved in 2015. I was out of united states in 2014 and came back in 2016 in L1-A visa. In 2017, I did concurrent filing of my I-485 and I-140 in May 2017. My I-140 with EB-1 category is approved in October 2018 and when I look at the approval notice, I see my priority date as 2013 .
So, my question is does USCIS honor my old priority date when it comes to issuing green card ? Initially i thought my priority date is May 2017 (when I filed my I-140 and I-485), but was pleasantly surprised to see old priority date. Not sure if you anyone has gone through the similar situation .
Thanks.
