J-1 Physician applying for following to join after waiver
I am a physician currently in H-1B undergoing 3 years of J-1 waiver program which is set to be completed on July end of this year. My husband got his greencard through E-B2 category (rest of the world) in early 2013 When I was still in J-1. My name was included in I-140 but could not file I-485 due to my J-1 visa. I have been married since 2006 and came to the US initially on H-4 visa before getting residency in J-1 visa. Is there a possibility of filing my I-485 directly without waiting for the long I-130 approval process? Or is there any exceptions for a situation like mine such that spouse happened to be in J1 and could not apply for a change of status at the time primary applicant applied for I-485?

BEST LAW FIRM IN US FOR IMMIGRATION CASES -
I am working with Rajiv's office for past several years now. Rajiv's office handles my several H1 extensions and got me approval without RFE.
I filed my I-485 through Rajiv's office. There was government error which was impacting the processing of my case and it was put on administrative closure. Rajeev's office (Rajiv, Art and Heather) guided me to get through the problem and got the file re-opened in fastest way possible.
Both me and my wife like his no nonsense approach to the problem.
I believe Rajiv the best immigration lawyer one can work with.
