EAD renew if changing employer under AC21

[nerf]

Suppose the following situation:

I change a job that meets the condition of AC21 after 485 pending for more than 6 months. And now I start working for my new employer under EAD. Is it still possible for me to renew my EAD year by year? (assuming H-1B is not available). Does AC21 specify the condition for AC21 as well?

I searched the forum, but did not find that information. Many thanks!

-------------YES, I-485 belong to YOU not to employer Aor B. YOU can file for EAD AP directly or through YOUR lawyer or new company lawyer. You will need the I-485 filing reciept.

(assuming H-1B is not available). Does AC21 specify the condition for AC21 as well?

Thanks for the reply. Am I gonna need any ORIGINAL receipt from my old employer? They sent me copies of the receipts (485, EAD, AP), but not the original ones.

The copy should be fine. I think you don't need to have originals!

copy is OK. if you want you can ask the lawyer who filed YOUR I-485 for the
ORIGINAL I-485 filing reciept. I-485 belong to YOU and lawyer cant Refuse your I-485 filing receipt notice.
