Everyone,
I would appreciate anyone who can provide some dependable insights on my potential problems in the future when applying for my US citizenship.
June 2000 - I485 filed under company A sponsorship.
March 2001 - Company A went bankrupt, and I was transferred to company B after it acquired remaining of company A\'s assets. Attorney from company B filed amended I-140.
Sept 2001 - Company B laid me off and withdrew the amended I-140. At this point I had my EAD.
Mid Oct 2001 - Hired by company C. New attorney filed a certified notice to the INS that I\'m still eligible for I485 approval based on AC21 (i.e. I485 pending more than 180 days and found a new employment under the same classification).
Mid Nov 2001 - Laid off by company C because of the market condition.
Mid Dec 2001 - I485 approved based on AC21, and I immediately got my passport stamped.
Currently, I\'m still looking but haven\'t found a new employment. I want to be US citizen after 5 yrs of continuous residence, but I\'m afraid that INS might revoke my GC if they discover the fact that my GC was approved a month after I got laid off. I understand that it is the intent when applying for GC that matters, and I intended to continue working for company C indefinitely. Being laid off was obviously out my control. Any advice on this? Has anyone went through similar experience? Please share.
