Hi,

I have previous employer's I-140 with me. It was approved on oct 2001. I left the company and took a permanent job. With my current employer, my LC is pending for nearly 2 yrs. I have lost hope on that LC approval(dates are still showing 4/2001).

I filed for I-485 on my own using the approved I-140 (it is not revoked) in Nov 2003 .
I am working on H1 visa . Can I now change from AOS to CP ? Is it feasible , if yes what forms do I need to fill ?

Pls let me know.
Thanks!
 
Can I now change from AOS to CP ?
You can change but your I-485 is based on previous employer I-140 and if you go for CP you will need letter from the employer who filed I-140 and if any problem at time of CP interview or case denied then you cannot appeal. No AC21 for CP. Let your AOS pending

Is it feasible , if yes what forms do I need to fill ?

----- dear, don’t do that and AOS is in your interest,
 
Sardar Ji,


AND maintain H1 status, you are qualified for 7th year H1 extension if hit 6 years then just attach copy of I-485 filing receipt and apply 7th year H1 or 8th year H1

** Keep valid EAD, AP with you for any emergency (EAD if any lay off) and always renew EAD 5-6 months advance of EAD expiry and always keep valid AP.
New company LC pending is also good back up
