I got my green card through company A in June 2007 I filed my I485 on 04/2003. I did not work for the employer, now the employer gave me letter saying that they can not hire due to economic condition. I have the letter for same.

When I apply for Citizenship will it be a problem? I have the intent to work for them but employer is not able to hire me.

Please advice.

Thanks
 
Well 4 years is a long time to wait for AOS, so it seems you would be amply covered under AC21 rules providing you move to a closely related job field and notify USCIS of the change.
 
I guess you'll be ok, but your post and previous posts raise flags in my mind. It seems you were working for company A, but company B was sponsoring for your Green Card. Why didn't you leave company B to work with your sponsoring company A while they still had money? The only doubt in my mind (and don't get me wrong, I am not judging you, just what I see in the posts) is that it could appear as some sort of fraud. I would try to collect documents about the activities of company A while it was still in business, to show it was a real business that needed hiring new employees. If company A business was fishy (just a front to provide Green Cards) pray that it doesn't fall under USCIS scrutiny. There have been cases in the past (one involving South Koreans come to mind (not all illegal immigration is from Mexico)) where USCIS has discovered immigration fraud (involving crooked lawyers and immigration officers) and has gone after the "immigrants" to revoke their Green Cards.

All in all, I hope you'll be fine, but store that letter you got in case it is needed in the future. I was trying not to write a scary post, but everything flowing from my mind to the keyboard was of the scary kind, in a way I guess it is because your initial post didn't have any details in which to base any advice which in turn is by no means something you should take to the bank :)

Thanks for your reply!


I have been working in the same job description as my GC job description, so do you think I should notify USCS right now?

rajoy1,

Do not complicate your situation by writing to USCSIS now.
Talk to a lawyer and take all documentation to the interview.

If asked, explain during the interview.
