If you have two I-485s pending through EB-2 and EB-5, will that cause delay in adjudication either of the application?

Find an EB-5 Visa Lawyer: Immigration AttorneyNo, it does not. It just means when it is time to adjudicate the first one they will ask you which one you want to proceed with as you can have only one green card.

Find an EB-5 Visa Lawyer: Immigration AttorneyIt is not a problem to have two I-485s although USCIS seems to be encouraging switching the underlying petition. USCIS will consolidate the files and require you to withdraw one before approving the other.

Once one is approved, however, you will have to formally withdraw the pending application in order to adjust status based on the approved application.
