Folks,

Many of you might have read about my situation earlier and here's the update:

My I140/I485 filed on 10/21/2003 are still pending, though I have received EAD,AP, and FP cleared on 05/26/2004. I have an excellent job offer in similar field from a major automotive company, that I do not wish to loose.
Considering the controversies surrounding use of AC21 before I-140 approval, I am in a real dilemma whether to use AC21 for this new job or not.

However, I have convince and subsequently, got an assurance from my current employer that they will support my I140 even if I leave them before it is approved. I fully trust them, and this is a relief that my I140 will not be withdrawn/revoked.

Here are my Qs:

1) With the support from my current employer, can I now change jobs using AC21?
2) Down the line when my I140 gets approved, will changing my jobs before it was approved cause any problems/RFE at the I485 stage?
3) Does the CIS track dates of job change/approvals, etc?

I eagerly await your responses.
Thanks a lot!

--- yes if you trust your past employer and he will reply to any RFE for I-I40
2) Down the line when my I140 gets approved, will changing my jobs before it was approved cause any problems/RFE at the I485 stage?
-----NO problem, any employer can file LC or I-140 for you even if you are not working with them or never worked with them. GC is for FUTURE job. who says you have to be with employer X or Y who filed I-140 for Z number of days??
3) Does the CIS track dates of job change/approvals, etc?
------ Once you update they will know that you have changed Intent and want to use AC21. they dont have the time to approve pending backlog, why they will track where are you working?? YES they can do if they want to know
I eagerly await your responses.
Thanks a lot!

Practically you would be fine. But legally it is not correct. BCIS does not typically track job change dates- but who knows.
