Hi,

I am on H1-B and waiting for my EAD .

(1) can i change my employer after getting EAD during H1-B Transfer .In this case will my EAD remain valid and the GC process will continue as usual.
(2) Shall i be required to Apply for new EAD and start my GC process again if i do H1-B Transfer .

(3) Whats if later after i do my H1 Transfer GC gets rejected .Does my new H1 status remain valid .

In general if i want to do H1 Transfer and not use my EAD to change employer what are the pros and cons

Appreciate if someone guides me on this .
Thanks in advance

1)After you get your EAD, you can change jobs after 6 months with same job responsibilities.

2)Depends on whether your old employer agrees to support the petition on future employment basis.

3)If you are on H1 and your GC gets rejected, you are still in status and work on H1.
