485 Questions

I have applied for I485 and it has already been 180 days from both RD and ND (RD 7/3/01, ND 8/14/01). I also have received the EAD (my H1B is expired and I\'m working on a EAD at this time), AP and FP is done. According to INS they have received the FP on Jan 02.

This means that if my company lay off me, I can find a new job in the same job catogory. I have two questions:

1. How would I know what job catogory I\'m in and the new job is in the same job catogory or not? Does salary/location matters?

2. NSC is around a year back at this time (they are processing applications from 02/02 at this time). Following the current pattern, my case will be decided sometime July or Aug of this year. What happens if my company lay off me in May and I can\'t find a new job within next 3-4 months (that is, I don\'t have a job when INS decides my case)?
 
No Title

1. See your LC approval, I140 approval . Jobs need to be similar in title and responsibilities not in salary. You can work anywhere in US

2. You need to have a job when your case is taken up for review . In some cases a call for interview at the local office is scheduled. You need to show proof of employment then. Otherwise your 485 may be denied..
