    EAD to work, risk?

    Why don't you apply for H1-B transfer using permium processing? You should get the receipt immediately and h1-B within 2 weeks? Having h1-B is preferable if you feel Eb-1 is more riskier... you can also travel more freely wihthout having to apply for AP every year...

    F1/PT/485/EAD/AP question. :)

    use your EAD I am not a lawyer but I think your best scenario would be to: 1) File concurrent I140 and I485 and get EAD EAD allows you to work for one or more employers and no worry of you get laid off. 2) If you are really worrried about your I140/I 485 getting denied apply for H1 also...

    change jobs.. affect 485?

    question to bhagat44 Bhagat44 , when you changed you job did you inform USCIS about AC21.. I've heard if you change jobs, and file for AC21, there is a strong chance you get tranferred to local office and hence more delays... When you responded to RFE did you reply using AC21 and...
