Is my understanding correct

I know that sometimes the subject of a sentence is truncated in informal speech.


Seems like the guest has arrived.


But, if that is used instead of like, it's impossible, right?


*Seems that the guest has arrived.


I'd like you to tell me if my understanding is correct. Thank you.

Seems like the guest has arrived. But, if that is used instead of like , it's impossible, right? No, both versions are OK in informal speech.
