Change Of Employment- Pending 1 140/485

[pg1]

My I 140/485 filled on 8th Aug 05. & both are pending . I am getting better JOB OPPORTUNITY from another employer. Can I change the job while my case is still pending? Can my curent employer harm my status I he wish, due to my job change? Please advise me immediately.

You have to wait for 180 days (6 months)

pg1,

In order to qualify for AC21 portability and not affect your GC process in a negative way please wait for 180 days before making switching jobs. Also make sure that the job function is the same atleast on paper.

Remember one thing:
1) If your I140 is not approved before you leave and your current employer revokes it. The whole greencard process is GONE.

2) The only safe is your I140 approved and your I485 pending for 180 days before you leave the current employer. But there is some risk also. READ AC21 FORUMS.

You should weight between GC and MONEY before making any decision.

Just wait until 180 days ...then you can change it without worrying about current employer.
