My I140 have been approved for more than 180 days,
and my I-485 have been filed for more than 180 days (not approved yet),
and I am currently on my H1 visa.
I have just submitted my 2 weeks notice and i will be working for another company (with same job description).
I just applied for my EAD card and that will take about 3 months.
The Question now is:
Will I be out of status if I quit my job and become unemployed untill i get my EAD card (in three months).
Is it a bad idea to work under the table for the new employer? how will the INS find out?
Do i have to notifiy the INS that i quit, what about transferring to another company? Do i have to submit AC21?
Does applying for a new H1 visa under the new employer help the situation?
Is it a bad move to quit my current job in the first place?
PLEASE HELP!!!! Thank you very much in advance.
