Urgent - Laid off on AOS - Shall i work hourly job(same job desc) using EAD

[needgc1712]

Hi All,
My company applied 485 and h1b. I am in AOS status and having EAD. My company laid off me on March and they are not revoking my h1b and 485(they may hire me back once get new job). Mean time shall i work hourly job and get around $1200 per month with same job description with using my EAD(they will run payroll and W2). Also i am looking permanent full time job with my higher salary.

For the hourly job they asking to fill I-9(employment eligibility verification). On that form asking my A# with EAD expiration date.

Is there a chance USCIS will know my hourly job?. My concern - this hourly job will create a problem for my GC process (chance to get REF) because rate is low

Please give me your valuable suggestion

Thanks

First 485 is your petition not employer's. They can not revoke it. They can revoke 140 which is there petition. If you have 140 is approved and 485 is pending for 180 days after 140 approval, you can invoke AC21.

Now, if employer revoke 140 then RFE might get generated. Otherwise, there is good chance no RFE is not generated.

Working hourly on EAD, USCIS will not know unless they issue RFE.

Good luck in search of your new job. I hope you find it with similar job description.
