I agree with my colleagues.

It takes about 3 months once you filed your I-485/I-756. You should keep your H1B status as long as you can.

You need to hire an attorney to review your criminal record before you file your N400.

If you do not have a valid EAD, you can not work legally.

File this application (http://www.uscis.gov/g-639) to USCIS. If your family member ever filed an immigration petition for you, USCIS generally have the record and will send the copy of the record to you. Hope you can get the documents to demonstrate you are 245(i) eligible.

K-3 might be an option for you. (http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/types/types_2993.html)

I agree with my colleague.

Please give us more information such as your husband and your oldest child's immigration status.

Your employer is not obligated to use the approved H-1B. If you work for a different employer, the new employer has to file a new H-1B petition for you.

I-130, I-485, I-864, I-131, I-765, and G325As. Please read all the form instructions.
