I am working in a company on my OPT, which will expire on Dec 2nd, 2008
My H1B will be valid since Oct 1st, 2008
Both my Eb1a and Eb2-NIW 140 have been pending since Dec 2007
My background is

***new materials***

Can get several more recommendation letters including a letter from a journal associate editor and a letter from current company demonstrating my key role
I am thinking about submitting 485 now. But will the rejection of my Eb1a
140 void my OPT and H1B? What are the advantages and disadvantages of
submitting 485 based on pending 140 now?
Your thought will be very appreciated.
Many thanks.
最后祝愿所有的父母都签证顺利！
