    potential layoffs, with I485 pending---EAD vs H1b

    To really use EAD, you need to fill out a new I-9 form that says your work authorization basis is EAD instead of H1B. As long as you haven't done that, you are still in H1B.

    Now, if I file it using this letter and 6 months later, I change my company using AC21, what'll happen. It is possible that INS when it gets to my petition may not find the letter suitable. What'll happen ? RFE ? I think it is likely that they will issue an RFE. [B} If I get an RFE, I...

    A trick to file I-485 without your I-140 sponsoring employer

    gpw, I think I heard about other AC21 cases approved by NSC. However, none of them lost their job before I-140 is approved and none of them reply RFE the way you did. So you will be in uncharted waters. Anyway just let us know how it goes... Good luck!

    A trick to file I-485 without your I-140 sponsoring employer

    gpw, I think you made a mistake when you replied to the RFE. You should have used AC21 there with new employer's employment letter. If you do so, you probably have GC by now. This was also what I did to get my GC. Anyway, now you can still claim AC21. However, there maybe problem...

    srajesh, To file 485 with company A, you need them to sign some papers like the employment letter and so on. If they don't want to sign, there is nothing you can do. If you really want to save every minute, you can hire your own lawyer to do 485. Then you bring the necessary...

    Can I work in a different job category with EAD but .

    EAD allows you to work without restrictions, so both a) and b) are ok. To get your GC approved, the best case is to find a similar LC job at the time of RFE/interview. If you can't find a similar job, being employed is better than not because at least you can prove you are not a public charge...
