a bit confused !! Gurus..please help

Gurus....
I joined a consulting company A by invoking AC21 on May 02, 2005 and started working for their one of the Clients. Since the Client does not have enough funds for my Project, it is going to be ended by July 15, 2005.

Now I got another offer from Company B and again wish to invoke AC21 and want to start from July 18, 2005. That is fine with my present Employer Company A. I have some expenses (moving ~ $3000) due with my Employer A and they are ready to reimburse it but they are saying in order to reimburse it and at the same time staying under the Rules and Regulations of the Company, they need to release me.

I tried to submit my resignation with my Employer A but they insist me to accept their release letter instead, as their point is in that way they will only be able to reimburse my moving expenses. If I quit then per the company policy I have to forfeit the reimbursement of the moving expenses as I have not completed one year of employment with Employer A.

My question is that if it is okay to accept their release letter and that does not have any adverse effect at my pending AOS.

I have not notified the Service Center about my invoking AC21 (for Employer A) yet, can I go ahead and let them know about my invoking AC21 for Employer B or I need to let them know about both Company A and B?

Thanks in advance

My details are in signature.

You don't need to inform about Company A. If you ask my suggestion, You don't send any AC21 letter right now. If you get RFE, you can send it later.

Good Luck

You don't need to inform about Company A. If you ask my suggestion,
You don't send any AC21 letter right now.
-------------- Why he should not invoke AC21 letter now?? What benefits to him if he does not inform USCIS?? what is the harm if invokes AC21 now??
If you get RFE, you can send it later.
------------- it means USCIS officer will look at file send RFE(wastage of his time) and the lawyer who filed his I-485 will get RFE then reply to RFE, wastage of time in the mail sending RFE reciving RFE and the officer has to pick up the file again.
Good Luck

I have not notified the Service Center about my invoking AC21 (for Employer A) yet,
can I go ahead and let them know about my invoking AC21 for Employer B
-------------- yes
or I need to let them know about both Company A and B?
------nothing about A, just send request letter to invoke AC21+employer B permanent job offer letter with same/similar job duties+I-485 filing reciept copy, send it by certified mail to service center where I-485 is pending and out side the envelope write in big bold letters : Request to invoke AC21 with pending I-485
*** hire your Lawyer so that if any info or RFE it comes to YOUR lawyer, if you dont change info will go to lawyer who filed I-485. if you dont want to hire lawyer then revoke the G28 filed by past lawyer. if past lawyer agrees to represent you for I-485 and AC21 then no need. if he is company A lawyer it is better to hire your lawyer

Thanks Ginnu, for helping me to take right steps. My Sponsored Company's Lawyer is still my Lawyer and he personally told me that he does not have any issues while continuing as my Lawyer when I told them that I left my Sponsoring company and invoked AC21 to join another employer.

What should I do? Should I still hire another lawyer or continue with him?

Thanks again.

--------------- if you are happy with the lawyer and he/she is OK to represent you then continue with him and inform him that every info should be provided to you directly
Thanks again.

Thanks Ginnu, but please go through my original post and let me know what is your opinion about resignation Letter vs Release Letter. All other Gurus are also welcome to share their opinion.

Thanks
