Hi Guys,
My AOS has been filed in the summer of 2007 (August 2007 timeframe). Since then, my EAD and AP have been renewed twice, and I have re-entered the US on AP. My AOS has been due for over 180 days now. My H1B expires in July 2009. Since I have not received my Green Card (AOS has not been approved yet) - my company lawyers have filed for H1B extension. Question - I have applied for an internal job, within the same company. The job-title and job-role are different. Am I legally allowed to do this - i.e. change jobs internally to a different role, based on my EAD? Can I go ahead with this new job? Thanks. |

You can change jobs, but there may be long-term problem for your I-485 - is the new job "same or similar" to the job described in your LC?
