Hi all,

My I-485 has been filed for more than 180 days. As far as I know, I am free to chang employer as long as the new position is in the same job category.

My lawyer said that I will need to file something called 'portability'.
I know some of my friends changing job without filing the 'portability' document. Is it necessary? The lawyer even charge $800 for it.

Could someone tell me if the 'portability' document is required? Or just my lawyer want to make more money?

Thanks.

do a little more research on the form

most important, do not rely on AC21!, you use it only when you don't have choice or you have great great justification for useing it!

As for the letter, latest BCIS MEMO suggest you should report the change of employer.

$800? if that lawyer could save you from possible interview, possible delay or even deny, that's nothing! do some research!
