I140/ I 485 pending;
EAD / AP received 2 months back.
6thYear on H1 to start in few days.
Is it possible to change employment at this stage?
If not, when is it safe to switch? What if one is laid off during this time. What are the options?
I have heard I can change job, if I485 is applied for 180 days. Is this correct? Does I140 need to be approved prior to that? What if one takes unpaid leave for couple of months during this time to visit home country?
Since my EAD is approved and I have valid H1 until next year -- is it advisable for my wife to work on EAD? Do I loose my H1 because of that?
Please help. Detailed answer with various options would be very very helpful. Thank you!
