I-485 approved after job change

My previous employer filed I-140/485 (EB1-2, outstanding researcher) concurrently in May, 2003 with TSC, I changed job in Sept (<180 days). I did not send AC21 letter to TSC (because I did not expect it would be approved), but I sent address change with INS and my current employer transferred H-1 visa with VSC. My previous lawyer just forwarded me a letter from TSC (Sept 2004) informing my I-140/I-485 approval and asking for PP stamping. My previous employer still wants to hire me at this point for sure, but I don't want to come back to them, what should I do? (I have a NIW case filed Dec, 2004 by myself).
Thanks a lot.
 
Since you've not filed AC21, your GC is approved based on employment (or offer of employement) from your previous employer. You have a liability of staying with the GC sponser for atleast some time. Or it might turn into complications at the time of naturalization. If you dont care about citizenship, then go ahead ...get your gc ...and continue with your new employer.
 
you need to show the intent to work for GC filed employer, not necessary to work. If i had ever worked working during the GC process, it proves the intent!!!!
 
I worked for 4 month during GC process

Thanks for your kind reply. I did work for my sponsor company for 4 month during GC process.
 
Simmilar situation help not yet approved

My Labor certificate was applied by my former employer in August 2000. In September 2001 i had to leave the company as they couldnot employ me any more but continued my GC processing for a future employment. My Labor was approved in December 2001 but by that time i had moved to my present company with a H1. Now since this is a future job requirement Greencard the process continued and my I140 was approved in May 2002 and subsequently my 485 was applied and I got my EAD. My present company H1 was valid till Jan 2004. I renewed my EAD once more in February 2004. The situation is the compay who did my GC as future employment has closed shop.I have been legally working for my present company from Nov 2001. How do I now get my 485 approved. My present company has given me a letter that they want to employ me in the forseeable future and desire to keep me. INS has sent a RFE asking for my paystubs , tax returns and letters from both companies. Mu former comapny cannot write that they can offer me a job in the future because they have gone out of business in December 2003. Can i fit in the portability clause
