@bakakallu, hope this helps. 


I-140
  • Passport - bio and signature pages
  • All degree/diploma, transkripts
  • Experience letter from your past employers
  • Current and previous U.S Visa
  • Recent I-94
  • All current and previous immigration paperwork(I-20, I-797 approval notices, EADs)

I-485
  • Birth Certificate - from Nepal(a standard letter from VDC/Municipality stating the date, place and parents)
  • Proof of Marriage (if applicable)
  • All pages of your current and any previous Passport.
  • All immigration docs - same as I-140
  • Medical Exam - I-693
  • Photographs - 6 PP photos if you apply for both EAD and TD


If recently married(less than 2 years), additional docs
  • Joint utility bills, phone bills, credit card statements
  • Joint bank statements
  • Joint tax returns
  • Joint lease agreements
  • Marriage photographs
  • Affidavits from friends/family testifying details about how you met/marriage ceremony

You'll also need 5 years of your employment(US and Nepal) and residence history.
Also addresses from Nepal if you have lived in multiple locations

Note: these are the docs I needed. But, it will depend on your lawyer too. I recommend you get a list from them for each form.
