Dear Friends,
I have a pending 485 application (EB1-EA), and entered the USA last month on Advance Parole. Since I am still with the same company who sponsored my H1 application, then I am still considered to be on H1 status.
Starting Aug, I will move to a new company. I have asked them to apply for my H1 transfer. I just want to have the new H1 approval, so that I can leave and come back based on the H1 visa. It is better for me if i decide to marry.
A lawyer has told me that if I apply for my H1 transfer, this means that I am abandoning my 485 application. Is this a true statement?
I remember some folks in here were talking about doing this. Please share with me your experience.
