485 approval question

[ak123]

Hi,

Does anyone know what happens if...
- 485 pending for more than 240 days
- received EAD
- get laid-off
- get 485 approval before one can find a new job.

Is this approval valid?? Please post any experiences and/or comments for any lawyers.

Thanks.

valid ? not valid?

I saw a message in this board, from a guy in your situation, and what I remember is that since you has been already approved..... you are OK.... Nobody is going to complain about that... nobody will have interest on that (and I dont think your employer will).

It is a different situation if you break your relationship with your employer after your approval and before some prudential time (the law doesnt specify anything, but it is assumed to be between 6mo to 1year) your employer can notify this situation to the INS.... (some times they dont...)

No Title

I think you are ok, as you didnt leave employer, u are laid off.
More than 180 days are also passed. Your GC is ok.

You are OK

As long as your previous employer didn\'t send in a notification, and you didn\'t get an RFE,you are home scott free. ENJOY your GC dude! You\'re free to look for new employment.
