Filing I-824 together with the I-485 - The right thing to do when filing the I-824 is to file both the I-824 together with the I-485 or wait till the I-485 is approved. USCIS identifies the reasons as to why an I-824 is interfiled. However an I-824 should not be rejected or denied only because it is interfiled and the I-485 is not yet approved.
Note: If an I-824 is interfiled, it may not be approved at the same time as the I-485 and the I-485 processing times will apply.

Impact of errors in tax return; IRS payment plans
Question details
I have not gotten to the stage of I-485 filing, but I had a general question. Let's say I accidentally put some wrong information in my tax returns, then I assume IRS will contact me about it. As long as I am on a payment plan with them, and pay everything I owe properly, would it still affect my I-485 approval chance? I am just worried about any unintentional errors from my end.
FAQ Transcript
Dealing with IRS issues, such as a payment plan due to errors in tax returns, should generally not negatively impact your I-485 application as long as you are actively in the process of correcting the situation.
