GC question

[GKNair]

My current employer is processing my GC. I know that it is possible to process the GC through one company evenif we are working with another company since it is a future agreement. But my question is if I loose my job (even then my employer is ready to continue the GC processing), at what conditions could I get that GC without any problems. Should I be employed with another company in an H1 or can I wait outside US until I get the GC or Can i stay here without working (by holding the current H1 or after changing my status to H4).

Hi friends,
I have a little concern which I wanted to get clarified. I am in US on H1B visa and last week got married to a Girl who is holding Green Card status in US. She is in US for the past three and half years(3.5 years) and is going to get her Citizen ship shortly(I dont know when).After marriage if I apply for my Green card through her then I understand that it normally takes around 4 to 5 years for me to get the Green card for me .

1. Can I get the Work permit early because I am in US only.If yes how much time does it take.
 
2. If I apply for my Green Card now and when my wife gets her citizenship will my processing be speeded up. If yes what is the paper work that I have to do.
3. Or shall I wait until she gets her citizenship and then apply for my Green card processing , But I dont know how much time it is going to take. Any other suggestions by which I can get my Green card(except through Employer) early are highly welcome . Any help in this matter will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance

Regards,
Ali
