If you are on TN then not eligible for GC process...
Reversely, if you have an approved i140 you are not eligible for TN...

M1, your TN will not be issued if i140 approved, there’s a declaration in the form

TN is not a duel intent visa and you cannot get an eb based gc off it. You would have to convert to an H1b or fulfill other eb criteria (eb5 investor etc.) to get an eb gc

This is not true. At all.
Except if you were born in India

like

TN=E3=non duel intent. These visas were created with Canada and Australia as part of a reciprocal agreement and are not eligible for eb based gc's
