    Employer not paying wages and AC-21

    Hi Gurus,

    I need your expert advice and here is my situation:

    I-485 pending for more than 2.5 yrs and has EAD (but so far not used) with EB3- July-02priority date.

    My current employer is not paying my wages and he is the one who filed my GC. Now. i am planning to sue him to recover my wages.

    Is it okay if i sue him before i find a new employer (using AC-21) or should i wait till i find a new employer?

    If i will sue him before finding new job what would be the impacts on my GC processing or any other impact you guys can think of?

    Please advice.

    thanks,

    -------get your I-485 filing receipt. find new employer, join new employer then invoke AC21 and file complaint against the employer with DOL and recover your wages.

    If i will sue him before finding new job what would be the impacts on my GC processing or any other impact you guys can think of?
    ----------------you are eligible for AC21 if I-140 approved and I-485 pending more than 180 days, find new employer so that your I-485 has new employer job offer letter.

    Please advice.

    thanks,
