Need Advice , Plz Help me! :: I-140 / AC21 ::

Hi folks,
Iam I/T professional working as consultant for the most part of my career so far,
My Eb2 RIR I-140/485/AP/EAD were filed in 10/08/2004 by a small 100 +
employees Indian company. Got approved AP/EAD on 11/2004.
No finger print notice yet. though i got finger printed in 04/2004 when i
applied H-1B Visa stamping.

1. Is this normal NO FP notice yet, what do i need to do wrt to that?

2. I am working with a good client on 6 month to hire position,
and with a good american consulting company as a preferred vendor
which pays $$ on time, the client expects me to join them as an employee
after 07/2005 like i mentioned above my I-140 applied in 10/2004 and is
pending, the current processing date for EB2 I-140 is 02/2004,
Is there any good chance my I-140 gets approved by 07/2005 or
little after that?

3. I have another offer, this is a pure consulting assignment
the preferred vendor to this client is an indian company who likes to
pay atleast 45 days LATE and My company wants to charge me 4%
more on the billing rate and pay me 4% LESS $$ but ON TIME.
should i consider this assignment? instead of changing companies
while GC is in process and the risk of getting delayed and
put up with this desi indian companies till my GC approves?

Please help me decide, tell me what you would do in my situation ?
Please respond to me at the earliest as i need to decide soon,
I dont have much time at my disposal.

Thank you very much in advance,

Changed job in 5/2004 immediately after I-140 approval. At that time I-485 Pending > 180 days. Did not notify USCIS at that time.

When USCIS Issued RFE on 12/14/04 for EVL, Pay-Stubs, W-2, 2003 Tax return, notified about job change and filed AC21.

2000, 2001, 2002 W-2s/Tax return were submitted along with I-485 Application.

They asked for last 3 months of pay stub. They asked for 2003 W-2 and Tax Return as well.
 
Congratulations!!

With recent scary "I-140 revocation" cases, is it safe for main applicant to:

1. apply for EAD?
2. use EAD?
3. file AC21?

Thanks.
