Qualifications of "future" AC21 employer

[armie]

How does BCIS verify the financial ability and other qualifications
of a the "future" employer since they do not file I-140 if the alien
is using AC21?
For example: can a AC21 candidate join a gas station or
grocery store as long as the employer is will to send a letter
to BCIS promising to offer permanent employment in
same categorey as his/her orginal LC/140.

IMO, AC21 makes a mockery of the lengthy LC/140 processes if
the final decision is based on a mere employment letter.

not really

gas station or grocery store employment letter would work if one's LC/140 was filed as a gas station attendant or grocer etc.
AC21 is fulfilled only as long as new job is "same or similar". It really is meant to help people who have undergone long waits and dont have to have things undone due to the center delays.

The question was can a AC21 candidate join a gas station or
grocery store as long as the employer is willing to send a letter
to BCIS promising to offer permanent employment in same
categorey as his/her orginal LC/140. / There is no rule
that a gas station can't offer a job for software engineer. In fact
BCIS has no way of verifying if such job exsists because AC21
doesn't require a LC/140 to be filed by the new employer. At
best BCIS might ask for tax statments for the employer, but
most gas station makes good profit with sizable turnover unlike
some IT companies these days In fact, on this forum several
AC21 cases were approved after producing only letter of
employment. The crux of the argument is, if a mere empolyment
letter is sufficient for establishing continued employment, why not
the ditch 140 altogether or stop asking for employment
verification after 180 days for all 485 cases?
