Change jobs in the middle of NIW

NIW applicant

Registered Users (C)
Hi Folks,
I have completed 3 years of J1 waiver and I finish my 5 years of NIW next november. i have another great job opportunity that is also in a HPSA that will allow me to live with my family.
Has anyone out there changed jobs in the middle of their NIW? Is it dangerous to do so? What are the steps required? Is it a lengthy process?
Should I ask for paperwork from my current employer documenting the completion of 4 years before I switch?

Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
 
Hi

I also intending the same.I am on H1, never on J1. applied for NIW through the present job. I am planning to move to a different HPSA area after 1 year. I understand, we have to redo I140 which will amend with the original I 140. Aslo you need documentation from previous employer that you worked for those 3 yrs, Ask Hadron or J1 victim. They are the expers.

>>>> yes. if you care to search previous posts in this forum, you will find many.

Is it dangerous to do so?
>>>>Crossing a road is also dangerous. you might get hit with a moving vehicle.

What are the steps required?
>>>>Hadron had replied very well to this question few months back. so before you ask for help, do everyone a favor. search this forum.

Is it a lengthy process?
>>>>No.

>>>>Will help but Not a must. your pay stubs and W-2 are the proof.
however, you might be sending your NIW report to the service center where your I-140/I-485 was filed. That will also be a proof.

J1 victim, Hadrin, I did indeed search the forum before I posted the question but I was unable to find the answer. Please could you post the link.

Thanks!
