AC21 -- Changing Jobs

Registered Users (C)
I am currently working as Sr. Developer and my company, when they filed my Labor they thought, the category "Consultant" is all encompassing and that a consultant could wear different hats with increasing/decreasing responsibilities within the company.

However, at the moment, with my I-140 approved and with my I-485 pending for 9 months, I am at the moment, pursuing couple of opportunities which will either take me as a Project Manager or as a Sr. Developer. Of course, in both the cases the job description will be *almost* identical with, may be, some extra buzz words. However the job title is bound to change because these are permanent employment and they are not going to tell that I am a consultant. As far as the Salary goes, I think, I will be getting what ever is mentioned in my LC.

What are the risks that I need to be potentially aware of. I would like brace myself in case disaster strikes (which always does :eek: )

Thanks, vk
 
There typically is no risk. BCIS looks at all this very broadly. As long as your new job is 'similar' (not ncesssarily identical)- you would be fine.

I would say as long as you are a permanent employee of a consulting company, changes of clients / projects do not matter. Many guys who work for my current consulting compay got their I-485 approvals, with the average project assignment length 6-12 months.
 
Thanks Karaya..!!
I just got fax copy of my appoved eta750 from my current employeer.I also have copy of 140 approval notice so I think now ready for rock & roll. :)
