Hey guys and gals,
I have something which I am not sure I fully understand and need some clarification, please. So I am working in the US on L1A status currently. Earlier this year I got married to a US citizen and about two months ago, I filled for a green card.
I should be receiving my work permit (EAD) in about a month, however, I am not sure if with that work permit I would be able to leave my current employer who provided me with the L1A status?
I am assuming my current employer would be cancelling the L1A visa I have if I leave, so I would need to leave the country and come back on a tourist Visa. However, as I am currently in the Green Card process, I am not allowed to leave the US unless travelling for work with the L1 Visa. As I travel from work, I never filed for the advanced parole, so I would be able to travel on L1 status for work.

Can someone please clarify as to how I would be able to change my current workplace once I have the EAD, and not affect the Green Card process I am currently in?

Thank you in advance!
