Default Applying Family-based green card after I140 approval
Hi All,
I recently got my I140 approved and I am waiting to file my I485 as my priority date(Oct 2007) is still not current(EB2 category, India).Not sure how long it is going to take as the current backlog is July 2000 for India and China.

My brother is a citizen of the US and I need to clarify if my brother can apply for a family-based green card for me and how long does it take to get the EAD when applied through this process as compared to filing through the employer when I reach my priority date.

Also need to clarify if this process is sooner or still the same as applying through the employer.

Thanks in advance.

Current PD for sibling is 1998. I dont think there is any issues for filing thru family based GC.
