Is letter from employee needed for filing I-485 for my spouse. I filed I-485 under EB3 last August and it's still pending. She takes my PD (We married after my filing I-485) and my PD will be current in May. I have an old letter from my employer when filing my I-485 last August but was wondering if a new letter from employer is needed or the old one would do.
Is that letter even needed?
Thank you in advance!

The letter from employer is not normally needed. Just proof of your pending/approved I-485, marriage certificate and copy of the pending/approved immigrant petition. Most lawyers also suggest filing an I-134 to show the spouse won't be a burden to the government.
