I filed my 485 in December 2001. My employer didn't file for my EAD card and my immigration documents are with my employers corporate attorney so I can't get them without making them suspicious. My client wants me to join them by next month and are unwilling to wait for my GC to come thru. These are some questions I have.
1. What are the legal implications if I leave my current employer and join the new company ?
2. Can I apply for my EAD separately through another attorney ? I don't have the 485 receipt with me. I only have the EAC number. Also, When they filed for my Labor my salary was high. Due to the economic situation it is lower now. If my new paystub shows this difference in salary when I file for EAD, will it matter ?
3. Will applying for EAD or having the new employer apply for a fresh H1B Visa to last me till I get my GC affect my GC processing in any way or delay it further ?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
