Technically not. Even though one does not have an I-140 approved or I-485 hasn't been pending for 180 days, one can move to a different job/location as long as the job profile is the same. USCIS needs to be satisfied that the "intent" was to keep you employed in the same job profile. More on it...
If your applications reached USCIS on/before Aug 28th, you dont have anything to worry about. They would transfer your applications to the right service center. Check out this press release Direct Filing Update

She can work part time using EAD while maintaining full time employment with the H1 sponsor. Else, she can work full time with the other employer using EAD and later switch back to H1 for the remainder of her 6 yr limit. She would not be subjected to H1B quota.
I have this confusion too regarding which date to consider while calculating 180 days. I understand that most of the portals recommend using "Received Date" instead of "Notice Date". However, i haven't found any document specifically stating so.
I tried to understand this better and this is...
Since it would be more than six months before everything would be finalized, there isn't anything to worry. Moreover, since this is a case of what's called "successor in interest", the new company just needs to inform USCIS of owning up all the liabilities from the previous company.
If you've never had any kind of EAD before, then you dont have an A #. In that case it would be first generated at the time of I-140 approval, if you don't already have it approved. For people who've had an EAD e.g. OPT EAD, the card has an A # and their I-140 approval retains the same A #

A couple of observations:
1/ EB2 China and India have not moved from where they were in June, probably hinting that USCIS hasn't used up all the visa #s available in these categories.
2/ However, surprisingly though, all EB1's and EB2 ROW have moved back! Now does that mean that they...
Since the move is within the commutable distance, its considered same labor market. Neither your H1 nor lpr process should be affected. If your's is an external lawyer (not a company's employee) and is not changing his address, your correspondences from USCIS shouldn't be affected either. And if...
Is it usual to see an LUD right after receipt notice has been sent? My I-140 was filed at NSC with an RD 7/6/07, ND 7/10/07 and see an LUD of 7/18/07. Nothing thereafter.
I did receive the notice on 7/18/07 though. Is it a mere coincidence that LUD is the same as the date receipt was delivered...
I-140 PP has been suspended indefinitely, so your only option if PERM were to be approved today, is regular I-140
Since its a PERM labor, PBEC/DBEC shouldnt be your concern. Its only for old RIR/TR labor filers.
