Labor Amendment

Hi,


My company X was acquired by a major company Y . After merger company Y substituted a Labor for me which was approved in company X for another person. My I-140 got approved recently. In my I-140 application they used company Y's name as "Company Y formerly known as X". They also have recently filed my I-485. I am planning to use the EAD on approval. I am wondering whether my company has to do some amendment for the labor that they used or since it is approved it is just ok. I am concerned that, it should not affect my 485 process.

Appreciate your inputs!

Thanks.

Actually filing I-140 amendment will create confusion. Just continue with your I-485 process.

Probably you would have come across lot of I-485 issues in this forum when they filed for I-140 amendment.

I'm sure BCIS won't approve I-485 with in 180 days, so don't file for I-140 amendment you can always use AC21 after 180 days for company merger.

Discuss with your attorney for legal issues.
 
Hi,

Actually company merger took place well before I-140 filing. In my I-140 application they mentioned the company aquisition in a letter and 140 got approved. So do I really need any amendment. I don't think AC-21 has got anything here.

Experts any idea....???


Thanks.

An amended 140 overrides LC

This is what happened in my case. My company changed its name after Labour and during 140. After the 140 got approved my attorney filed 485 alongwith an amended 140. I got my EAD/AP approval after the amended 140 was approved. I have been working on EAD for the past month. In your case, I see no issues in working on EAD which was approved based on the underlying 140 which has the name of your new company.

You may want your HR cross check with the attorney to be doubly sure. Hope this helps.
 
I agree with Rsur, same thing happened to my friend when DCI merged with Ciber and he got his EAD and he is working on EAD now without any problems.

If your I-140 is approved, then you will not have any problems at all. It might be helpful if you have a copy of the merger letter that was submitted with I-140.
 
Thanks for the replies Guys!

Today I looked at the approved I-140. It has the new company name mentioned like what is mentioned in the application for I-140.

Comany Y formerly X.

So from the interpretations of the replies, I believe I am ok!

Thanks.
