I-485 (EMP based) pending with valid EAD & AP- and working in CANADA -temporarily

[TheEnquirer]

Hi All,

I am in a strange situation to say the least....would like the general opinion from folks.


I-485 concurrent application pending for 6 months - I-140 approved (may 19)- EAD & AP Approved & valid.

My company had moved my job to canada. And they are offering me a job in canada.

Best case scenario for me is to move to canada for some time (may be a year or so- for CAREER and PERSONAL reasons) and then move back to US.

I was told that there are two problems i would face

First- If an RFE comes in within that year and I dont have a job in US - then green card is GONE!!!

Second - when I am trying to cross the border - its a tricky situation.
- I will have valid EAD and AP ( i hope)
- but no job in US ( planning to travel for interviews)
- I will defienlty have a Workpermit incanada and POSSIBLY MY COMPANY WOULD HAVE APPLIED FOR PR in canda

when my first case looks straight forward- is my second case legal and advisable .
thanks and anybody sees any other problem than the one mentioned above.

I would value all ur comments.

thanks

Job Moved to Canada

Hi
If possible ask your employer to transfer your job in Canada till you are getting your US GC
One of my friend convinced his employer , took a job location transfer(Still based in USA) moved to Canada and maintaining US Salary /Tax requirement
