Hi

PD : May 2003
I-485 : Nov 2004
Category: EB2
Country : India

I received a green card two months back, and my spouse case is still pending. When I check with CIS thro my attorney, the case is pending with officer for Review. My spouce is working with EAD, and the EAD is valid till Feb 2008. AP valid till Nov 2007, and we have already filed for renew advance parole. I am the principal for employment based I-485. I have the following questions. Thanks for your help

1. Does my spouse condsidered to be an independent as I already got my green card ( plastic card).

2. Will it affect the process of pending I-485 for my spouse if I change my job

3. If the answer is No, does my spouse need file anything with CIS due to change in my job.

4. If I join the new employer, does my spouse need to file new EAD and AP with my new employer.
 
When I asked my lawyer, I was told that you can change your employer regardless your spouse pending case. But, you may want to wait 6 months as a general rule.
You may want to check with your lawyer again.
