Hello Gurus,

My I140 approved, and I485 is pending more than 180 days. I have joined another company same/similar job. Now I would like to file AC21. Before that I need to change my Attorney.
Since I can not access my company Attorney directly (my old company policy) I need to change to a new one. Or how can I make sure from now on, the INS should send all inquiry (Even if my old employer ‘recalls/revoke' my approved I140) to me (or my new Attorney) only.
What steps I would take next…
I would really appreciate your response.

thanks

Choose according to your situation:
1 file form AR11 for address change
2 update NCSC on 18003755283, your new address, provide them your ,WAC,EAC or LIN # of I-485 and reciept # of any pending petitions with service center, provide the receipt#, your name, DOB, A#( A# is on I-485 filing reciept)
3 write letter to service center for address change on your I-485( if you have spouse I-485 pending He/she also need to change address on her/his I-485) or any pending petition with them provide your past and NEW address, attach I-485 receipt copy, write your I-485 reciept # name, DOB, A# on cover letter so that you get fingerprinting notice at your new address. Send the letter to your service center with certified return receipt and out side the envelope write in big bold letters ATTENTION: ADDRESS CHANGE for Pending Form I-485 ( or any other application)
4 if want to use AC21 Then if the past company lawyer filed I-485 then better change your lawyer and fill up new G28 with your new lawyer and he can update USCIS that he represent you and can mail G28 to sevice center, he can also make a request to chage your New address on Pending I-485 and he will get if any RFE, if you dont change any RFE will go to past lawyer. if you dont want to hire new lawyer then write to USCIS that you revoke the G28 filed by lawyer XYZ and XYZ nomore represent you and request USCIS to send documents directly to YOU on address....
*** do the all 1,2,3,4

----------- go to lawyer , ask the fees and fill up G28 and take I-485 filing reciept copy
b) With out new lawyer, how can I revoke G28 filed for my old company’s lawyer?

------------ write a letter to USCIS service center with your name, I-485#, A#, DOB and request that please revoke the G28 filed by Lawyer XYZ as XYZ no more represent you and any documents from USCIS should be sent direcly to your address, attach copy of I-485 filing reciept and out side the envelope write in big bold letters: Request to revoke the form G28 and send the letter with certified mail.
